Hi everyone. Why are you recommending to go to KL over other countries/cities? Is there any benefits to go to KL instead of anywhere else?

Phuket beach road has an information tourist advice centre. Where you can ask for advice. But get there early. Very busy

Like Brandon said. Get 30 at immigration. And if you want stay longer. Fly KL and back get another 30 ๐Ÿ‘

You can apply one time for a 30 day extension from your local immigration office.
