Also away from home mah. No need go home. Make the most in a month.

Actually hor most of the ones that go overseas are those that have already outgrown their "expiry" dates at home, so need to go overseas so lesser competition from those younger new waves

Thats why most of the time when they are overseas they are much more fiercer as they are old birds & eagles liao

Yes, play in MY seems cheaper, although ktv in KL less wild...mostly go to Feng Tao only.....if want bonk not an issue if planning to tapau back anyway....and that was the intention anyway tapau from ktv is a bad plan anyway.

But my FB is there so don't have to worry about night time company.

Going HCM again on the 18-22. If any bros there, can probably meet up.

There will always still be the odd places in any places regardless of cities or rural areas, in HCM you can still get 2m & 2.5m for LT in some local KTVs but unfortunately many dinos & zombies so normally our group visit once & thats it, even if I wana go my other kaki will kill me.......

Our modus operandi is more on quality vis-a-vis prices so now if it is 4m LT maximum we will still take but seldom more than that

I dunno if it is just me but KL KTVs are damn expensive and playability quite low if any at all

Value for dollar. All viet, that time quality n quantity all hv. Not sure still open. Can try find out

Melaka KTVs damn jia lat cos mostly run by those syndicates that basically "enslaved" those poor naive VBs years back when they first open up there were quite a number of poor VBs that got trapped in this and one of those was our dear Zaryl's old flame and she told us those real stories

Thats why they will practically escort them to your hotels and escort them back
