kiPPas

This morning, I went to the Ipoh Immigration Office to renew my passport. When I reached there, I headed straight to the form counter. The officer asked me if I wanted a 2 year or a 5 year passport. He told me that it's only RM100 for 2 years passport. That was very tempting but it took me a while to think.

When I decided a 5 year passport, he pointed to the kiPPas.

I haven't seen it before. As I entered the kiPPas, an officer assisted me throughout the process. It took hardly 5 minutes and I could collect my new passport in 2 hours time.

    That's fast ! I remember I gotta wake up at 6am when I renewed my passport last time in JB, and only got to collect it at almost 5pm. Btw, never been to the new Ipoh immigration in jelapang.

    As I'm in Singapore, I always renew my passport in the High Commission of Malaysia.

    5 mins to process is way too fast!
