To those who may concern, I am a Malaysian passport holder but will be travelling to Guangzhou, China from United Kingdom for a presentation at a conference. I have received an invitation letter from the conference organizer that could support my visa application. Here I have following inquiries:
1) What type of visa should I apply?
2) If I am to apply the visa from China Embassy in Malaysia, how long will that take? let say I'm applying on this Oct. 6, 2009.
3) As I have to travel to Kuala Lumpur (Ampang) from Kota Bharu, is it possible for me to collect the visa on the following day (walk in collection), or how long the postage will take (for an ordinary standard delivery)?
4) Is there any online application methods or at least an electronic form I can download?

Thanks in advance.
