Playing Golf in Malaysia

Golf has slowly becoming a culture in Malaysia. A lot of tourist came to Malaysia include golf in their vacation package such as those from Korea and Japan. The cost playing golf in Malaysia can be said very cheap. Let's say one can play one round of 18 holes golf as minimum as RM 30 ++ (about USD 10) per person. But, there are certain high standard golf course which charge expensive green fees. But i think it is still cheaper than some countries considering the currency exchange values. Let say if one wish to play a round of golf in Saujana Golf and Country Club, he/she has only paying about RM300 on the weekdays (about USD 100). This club has established itself by winning many recognition and awards. 15th Maybank Malaysian Open was recently being held here (somewhere in February 2009). Some of distinguished players in the tournament were Anthony Kim (AK), Thongchai Jaidee and Johan Edfors. The club is about 15 to 20 minute away from the city centre of Kuala Lumpur. There other clubs at this standard in Kuala lumpur alone. To name a few; Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club (KLGCC) and Kelab Golf Perkhidmatan Awam (KGPA). Playing golf at these clubs can really challenge your skills phisically and mentally. Enjoy your game.
