Re: How to search more effectively?
Since MFM premise numbering is not up yet for most areas, at the moment you can use http://www.multimap.com or similar sites to look for addresses with premise number. According to MultiMap, the address should be somewhere here: N2.19516 E102.24698

Re: How to search more effectively?
Bro dvpro, thanks for the info but I can't seem to find the address using multimap 
Your attached map looks so different from http://www.multimap.com, I even try http://www.multimap.com/world/MY but no luck.
Are you able to provide more details? Thanks.

I believe the depicted location is not quite accurate. According to the map, that puts it near Coconut House Restaurant and Hotel Puri at the 3rd block. The address to search for is at No. 40, while Coconut House is at No. 128 and Hotel Puri, No. 118. On the other hand, Baba Nyonya Heritage Museum which is at the 2nd block is at No. 48 and 50, which puts it nearer to No. 40. This info corresponds with MultiMap which shows this particular block houses Nos. 30 to 94.
255w, when using Multimap (at certain areas and zoom level) you can switch to "Navi & Map" (for the map with premise's numbering). As for searching for locations, I use main towns as the keywords and work my way around with browsing and zooming in.
