Di mana Kuala Lumpur?

Just wanted to post this picture particularly... me lifting Malaysia's famous Merdeka Square flagpole. Man i am sooooooo strong, must be all the noodles and rice I have been eating.

Feel alot a better now, I know you were all so worried about me....

On the 28th, Derek and I basically did the Old Kuala Lumpur Station to Masjid Jamek walk. About 2.2 Km and about 2 hours to do the whole walk. It was amazing seeing national monuments like the National Mosque considering Malaysia's religion is primarily Islam. You know what's so touching about Malaysia... you see great hindu temples and you go to another street and you see colourful Taoist Temples too. The world can learn so much about how people having different physical appearances, different beliefs and values can all live together harmoniously. If we all just drink tea and eat rotis and noodles i think the world would be a better place.


Today, Derek and I went to the KLCC to see the world famous Petronas Towers- i think they said it was the world's tallest twin towers 451.9m. However, they only let the public to go to the skybrigde section, which is a little under half way the tower.

While waiting to go to the skybridge, i decided to meet some new malay school girls. I think i almost terrified them, having the biggest smile on my face as i was approaching them and saying "hi, lets take a picture everyone... ready smile and wave...."notice i'm the only one waving.


This is the Petronas Third Tower from the outside main area. The middle tower however, is still under construction. Derek thought it was sooooo cool him being in between the two towers.

The agenda for tomorrow is Batu Caves. Stay tuned everyone... over and out.
