I'm going to Malaysia in October this year - on the 7th I want to rent a car and drive from KL stopping by Cameron Highlands / Ipoh for 2 days and getting to Penang by the 9th.
I've just realized that it is Hari Raya on the 5th and 6th October (http://publicholidays.com.my/hari-raya-haji/).
Just wondering what kind of holiday is that? Will things be open? I was thinking of hiring a car when I get there, should I book everything beforehand then in case the car hire places are closed?
Also what will the roads be like on the day AFTER the holiday when I need to drive from KL? Will the traffic still be really hectic?
