GrabCar is the best option. Jelatek station would be too close to travel by train. From elements, you can take the E12 highway that takes you directly to klcc. Fastest in my opinion. Read More

Got Indian driving license, how to legally drive in KL by bharadwajc

Hello Friends, I have a driving license from India. And wanted to know how can I legally be driving or riding here. Can anyone advise. It would be great if you share some detailed or brief idea about it, whatever possible. Thanks!

carlyle1979

Surprisingly, UAE is not on the list and some terrible driving countries are on the list. Maybe drivers from countries that actually follow the rules wont be able to manage here ;-) Read More
