Does anyone have recent experience with receiving a SETV in Kuala Lumpur and/or Penang. Any information would be helpful. This person is a Philippine national and will be flying directly from KUL to CNX. Also are there holidays at the Embassy/Consulate next week. Thanks for your advice.

TLDR : Answer Summary

The discussion revolves around the process of obtaining a Single Entry Tourist Visa (SETV) in Kuala Lumpur and Penang for a Philippine national. Comments suggest that the requirements are the same in both locations. Attendees noted that the KL application experience was quick, taking about 30 minutes for submission and 5 for pickup, as long as the applicant followed the embassy's checklist. Information about upcoming holidays at the embassy indicates that August 31 and September 1 are non-working days. Inquiries about accommodation were also made, indicating concerns about travel logistics.

KL's easy. As long as you have the items on the checklist you're good to go. I was there 30 minutes for the submission and 5 for the pickup.
