Thoughts: With the Promotional price of rm$15/day for Professionals and rm$10/day for Students; Kota Damansara's SPEWCO is probably the cheapest Co-Working Space in town. The normal day Pass rates used to be rm$25/day; so the rm$15 promotional rate is likely only applied to the CMCO periods. 
SPEWCO offers the following:
Daily Pass : rm$25/day 
Special Promotion (until End of Nov 2020) : rm$15/day Professional and rm$10/day Students
Shared Desk: rm$399/month
Fixed Desk: rm$499/month

Meeting Room: rm$80
SPEW: stands for Social, Play, Entertainment, and Work, hence SPEWCO! Opened by 2 young Malaysians with the aim to provide aspiring Malaysian young entrepreneurs with a cost-effective space business startup work space. I believe its been around for maybe 2 or 3 years. Located in the 2nd floor of a Corner shop lot in Kota Damansara's Damansara Indah shop lots. Ample MBPJ parking available today at around 9am for rm$5/day via "SMART Selangor Parking" Mobile App. There are lots of eateries nearby, at least 2 Chinese Kopitiam plus the Neighbouhood Food Court in its immediate surrounding just across the street. 
First thing, no shoes inside the Co-Working Space! SPEWCO takes up the entire 2nd floor of the corner shop lot with an open office layout. The main work area are 23 shared working tables (maybe around 38 seats), with electrical power points on the floor, and extension cords are available from the reception. There are also 4 or 5 enclosed glass-rooms with 4 tables each room probably for Fixed-Desk Plan customers which I think can be converted to Private Room Plan for one person. There is a Meeting Room with White Board, LCD Screen, and a Projector. 
For Fixed-Desk and Private-Room Plans, customers can have 24/7 Access to the facility while Day Pass are 9am to 5/6pm for weekdays only; However, Day Pass users can choose to stay until 8pm! The little Pantry offers just a "little bit" of snacks and I believe some Tea Bags and drinking water. I suppose Tapao food is allowed as there is also a concrete table for dining. 
Internet speed was excellent throughout the day, with good bright working conditions under Compact fluorescent white bulbs. Based on todays experience, a quiet place to get some work done for an affordable daily fee.
