More affordable Malaysian Passport

Wanna travel overseas but wince when you remember that you have to renew your passport? RM300 is a lot of money just to make a passport that you'll hardly ever use (if you're not a frequent traveller). Fret not. Now you can get an international passport for only RM100, but it'll only be valid for 2 years (5-year validity passport is still available for RM300 for 32 pages)

At first, it kinda strikes me as strange that this 'new' passport actually costs cheaper (RM100 for 2 years, if i pay RM300, it'll last me 6 years instead of 5!) but since most of the countries would require passport holders to have validity of more than 6 months before being permitted to enter their country, I guess in this sense, having a longer validity passport is kinda cheaper, especially if you're a frequent user.
