Kl Tourist Visa

[Thaihog]

I'm off to KL this week to make a tourist visa, and was wondering what funds are required to show the consulate if asked?

Has anybody recently managed to get a double entry tourist visa, or will I only get a single?

Cheers :jap:

Actually, there are similar requirements(#4-4.3) in some countries for people to apply for any kind of visa, the middle east especially. They have a lot foreign employees and they don't want them leaving without permission.
