hi there,

Malaysian shops are full of great deals but definitely bargain for prices, unless they are clearly marked on the goods, as bargaining is a regular thing and expected by locals and tourists.

Be respectful, polite and friendly. Make fair offers and know your Malaysian currency, the Ringgit, and what it's worth or you'll find yourself arguing over pennies.

Rivaling Honk Kong and Singapore, Kuala Lumpur is a hot shopping destination. The best know mall here is Suria KLCC complete with beautiful fountains, a piazza and manicured gardens and is full of well-known couture shops.

However, the largest of shopping centres in Malaysia is Times Square, where you can find any variety of gift shop Malaysia offers, leading fashion stores, book stores, cinemas, dining facilities and more.

Hope this helps
