Malaysia - Truly Asia
Twin Petronas towers


I came to know recently how the name Malaysia originated. This country was earlier called as Malay. These people copy everything from Singapura (Singapore). What they did was they borrowed the first two characters and the last one from Singapura and appended them to Malay.
I have spent almost two weeks here. Visited couple of temples, went to the KLCC towers (Petronas), have some plans for the week end too. As far as the guest house is concerned, it is an awesome appartment and my place is on the 18th floor, and the view from the balcony is fabulous. Can sit all day and gaze around.

Few things that i noticed about this place is the spellings they use here - Polis, Restoran, teksi, Telekom to name a few. Lot of localites speak tamil here. There are lot of south Indian veg restorans here like SB, Sangeetha, New woodlands.

This place did not impress me as much as Melbourne. I bet everyone agrees with me that nothing can beat INDIA.
