ETS trains link Kuala Lumpur with Ipoh and Penang; buses cover everything else cheaply. AirAsia's home base means domestic and regional flights are among the cheapest in the world. Grab is ubiquitous.
SIM e connettività
Maxis (Hotlink), CelcomDigi and U Mobile all sell cheap tourist SIMs and eSIMs; speeds are among the best in the region.
