Langkawi, whats in it for visitors
Langkawi Island, Malaysia Langkawi, an archipelago of island located west of Kedah, Malaysia, is among one of the hot tourist attraction in Malaysia. Accessible through air and sea.
Malaysia has lots of tourist site that in terms of scenery and nature, are consider better than Langkawi, but Langkawi still remain one of the favourite, especially among Malaysian. The reason behind it may be because Langkawi is a shopping paradise (for certain goods) and also a beautiful island with beautiful beach and scenery.
Langkawi is among the few place where imported products are not being tax, so the imported things found in Langkawi is cheaper than most of the place in Malaysia.
This is a paradise especially for those who are into these 'certain goods' which are liquor, cigarette and chocolate, as these goods which are mostly being heavily tax are levied on Langkawi (example, commonly found beer like Tiger, Carlsberg, the price of one can on the mainland can be around RM5.00/ $1.66, but on Langkawi, its only around RM1.50/$0.50), so do the calculation yourself, or even better, just buy a carton and drink till you throw, and it will still not hurt your wallet. This is why you will hear a saying among the local that 'drinking alcoholic drinks is cheaper than drinking water'.
Here, liquor, cigarette and chocolate can be found easily, as a lot of shop will be selling them, and in this competitive environment, consumers will be the one who’s laughing. But be 'WARNED' as the price is CHEAP, there will be some trade off, and that will be in term of 'Taste', the chocolate doesn't seem to have any difference, but the alcoholic drink and cigarette will definitely taste a bit blander than the ones found on mainland.
One more thing to celebrate for the chocolate lover is that Chocolate fair is being held quite often, so check for it.

TOP 10 PLACES TO VISIT WHILE IN LANGKAWI by Mathan Mohan
Langkawi is a cluster of about 99 islands on Malaysia's west coast and is a great holiday haven. Nestled in the azure blue Andaman Sea, some of the islands which are uninhabited are a tourists' paradise. Langkawi can be visited throughout the year and hotels in Langkawi are always busy.
1. Cenang Beach is on the south-western shoreline of Langkawi. This is a well-known beach and one of the most beautiful too with its stretch of faultless white sands. This beach has a lot of restaurants, and hotels catering to all budgets. The island interiors have thick rainforest foliage and are also a hub for adventure trips. The sunset view is great from this island and the duty-free shopping policy at Langkawi also adds to a tourist's joy. Wading to the nearby Rebak Kecil Island during low tide, the underwater World and Laman Padi are other major draws here.
2. Gua Cerita or the Legend cave is situated in the northeast of Langkawi. This is basically two legendary sea-facing limestone caves located one above the other. Many tourists visit this place to view this limestone marvel.

Langkawi Five-O by Firiz
All my frustration during 4 weeks of STPM examination were paid off. Next day after the exam, my family and I were boarding on AK5203 flight to KL at 6.15am. During the flight, I ate Chicken Rice. The taste was not bad! We arrived at LCCT around 8.15 am. My elder brother and I rushed to the counter for early check-in. While waiting for the flight, my elder brother, sister and I went to McDonald for early breakfast. At 10.00 am, we took AK5322 flight to Langkawi Island. Finally 1 hour later, our plane landed at the 'Island of the Eagle'.
We rented a Nissan Grand Livinia car for RM300 (2 nights). At noon, we reached Hotel Bahagia in the heart of Kuah town. Waiting for check-in, we went sight-seeing around the town before headed to Billion Supermarket for duty-free shopping. We bought a lot of chocolates. Then we ate Nasi Kandar at a Mamak restaurant near Pekan Rabu. We went to the waterfront nearby to snap some photos.
