KL

has so many highways! i was amazed at how Cheng managed to navigate all of them. i would have been lost (which isn't saying much, considering i got lost in Suntec once...)

has so many super big shopping malls. went to Sunway Pyramid and 1 Utama. i wonder how those shops in the malls manage to survive.

has GINORMOUS (gigantic + enormous) houses. saw one near Cheng's place on a hill with a damn good view of KL city centre and another one, pretentiously named 'Camelot' (i kid you not, it was on engraved onto the wall. and the house was a poor parody of a castle.) what took the cake were the houses at Tropicana. it was a super exclusive housing estate, with its very own country club (complete with golf cours, club house, swimming pool, etc). and some of the houses there were... well... if you've seen Ho Kwon Ping's house... yar. pretty much like that.

has the most divine durian chocolate cake at this restaurant called Stan's Assam and Garam in Bangsar One. far better than Double O's.

i was so un-tourist. did not see any tourist attractions there. did not even step into Petronas Towers. but did go to Putrajaya (each lamp-post there costs RM10000 and the PMO building looks like a castle.) and Klang (great Bak-Kut Teh). also learnt a lot about the way Malaysians do business as well as how young working adults who are well-off enough to have studied overseas live.

it was a good trip :)
