For RM 4 I can have nasi, sayur and ikan... plus sup kosong. Why buy chocolate (empty calories) when you can eat your fill? What is the equivalent of RM4 in Pound Stirling, can you buy lunch with it (not at a fastfood outlet, something regular!)? And if you earn RM350 per month, is RM 4 expensive? YES, it is, RM 4 is a lot of money for some people, especially in the rural areas... thus, profit of the good exchange rate and visit Malaysia, it is a great country!

50p here! wow £1 now equals RM6.84, nearly 7 to 1, I can hardly wait to get back out to Malaysia in the summer.
Edit:
Boss, I'm one tenth a Malaysian millionaire already, ha!
"Who wants to be a millionaire? I don't. Have flashy flunkeys everywhere? I don't.
Who wants the bother of a country estate? A country estate is something I'd hate!
Who wants to wallow in champagne? I don't. Who wants a supersonic plane? I don't.
Who wants a marble swimming pool too? I don't. And I don't `cause all I want is you.

(It's a song by the way, and I've no idea what a 'flashy flunkey' is )

i think its ok, coz the chocolate been bought at 24hours store. Maybe 7-11 shop. The store been operate during others store is closed. so maybe thts y the price is slightly a little bit higher.
