In Kota Kinabalu the main shopping centers are open daily from 10.00 to 20.00,
or even later. Smaller shops often open at 8.00 - 9.00 and close earlier.
Markets, especially food markets, are popular in the early morning and late
evening as many Malaysians like to buy fresh ingredients for cooking. Pasar
malam or night-markets are also popular.
Bargaining is generally only acceptable in the markets and at the roadside
stalls. As a general rule, price for goods sold in street markets and small
stores are negotiable but the prices are fixed in large department stores. Some
smaller shops may give discounts if asked, particularly if a large amount is
purchased. If you are unsure, make a polite request to determine the response. |
