/script px,py=GetPlayerMapPosition("player")
/script SendChatMessage(format("%s (%.2f, %.2f)",GetZoneText(),
px*100, py*100), SAY);

That should do it - haven't tested it though, so bugs may exist.

If you want you can also replace the "SAY" in the end with any of;
"SAY", "EMOTE", "PARTY", "GUILD", "YELL", "RAID", "AFK", "DND".

You can also use "WHISPER" or "CHANNEL", but then you need to add;
", nil, <name>", so it becomes, for example;
/script SendChatMessage(format(...), CHANNEL, nil, "MyChannel");
to say it in the channel named MyChannel.
