the details
Admin
There is a RM200 (around $50*) per team admin fee which goes towards any phone calls, faxes, emails, copies or other expenses that are incurred during your team’s set-up & stay.
(This payment can be made after your arrival.)
Arrival
– from Penang International Airport, RM60 (US$15*);
– from Sungai Nibong Bus Station, RM50 (US$13*);
– from George Town Ferry Terminal, RM40 (US$10*).
If your team is bigger than this then we will likely have to hire a taxi van, and so the cost will change as well. Please let us know your itinerary as soon as possible so we can plan accordingly.
Housing
Our housing is RM30 (around $7USD) a day per person. We have one downtown housing locations connected to our ministry work in George Town and very close to some of the other ministries we are connected with in the area. We also have two dedicated housing facilities a half hour’s drive away, near to where many of the staff live, and by the beach, in Tanjung Bungah.

Transportation
In the event that the YWAM van is not in use and there is a suitable driver available, you may use the van for RM25 (USD$6.50*) per half day plus petrol.

As a guideline, we usually ask that a team stay in a location for a minimum of 2-3 weeks to be most effective on outreach. Relationships are key to reaching the local people, and many pastors & ministry leaders report that the best thing for a team is to stay longer in a location.
Remember to expect a couple of days of orientation at the start of your time here, and some time for debrief at the end of your stay.
