Cheap calls back to Malaysia while roaming

Whenever someone goes overseas, getting connected always while in another country can be quite expensive.

You always get charged while receiving a phone call or sms overseas although that is how telcos are making money.

The worst part is that you will get charged at least two to ten times the phone call charges when you call back Malaysia.
