AVAILABLE CAMPSITES AROUND MALAYSIA

AVAILABLE CAMPERVAN CAMP SITES:

Man! This country is hopeless for camp sites for our campervans, Motorhomes and Caravans!
I am working mostly on Melaka at the moment as no time to travel far. I have been to a few lake areas, spoke with locals and a few existing modivational camps that seem to want to only deal with large groups and not give a small space for campervans. Plan on many places not having any facilities whatsoever. Plan to be self sufficiant. BUT GET ON THE ROAD!
I WILL BE ADDING TO THIS LIST STATE BY STATE AS TIME GOES BY! Anyone who knows of any places around peninsular Malaysia, Please let me know so I can add it to the list. Follow the form for information about your site.
                                                 THIS PROBLY WONT HELP BUT......
