I was at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia for 6days and 5 nights. I baically went there along with my friend Pradeep , for meeting job agents and also to explore the local labor market.
As I have got used to the life at Singapore for the past 17months, KL was way different, chaotic traffic, pollution, the people, cars and filth along the roads etc... I was immediatly reminded of Chennai and Mumbai where the life is somewhat similar, except for the cars and aircon buses.

I had a very good time there and especially getting to know Pradeep better and also strengthening our friendship. Apart from the hectic schedule of meeting the agents, we did find time to go around a couple of places, near Bukit Bintang.
One of the highlights of our trip was the trip to the Petronas Twin Towers (locally known as KLCC -Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre). Its a very majestic building and I was feeling so week and timid, against this great twin structure. The experience cannot be that easily expressed, it has to be felt to understand.

Mercy and brother had joined us on late Friday evening to spend the weekend at KL. On Saturday we all went to Sunway Lagoon Theme park and enjoyed it thoroughly. They have lovely water slides and also I enjoyed the roller coaster ride. It was a great experience.
On our return to SIN, we took the Intercity Express train and as usual with the train journey, back at India, it got delayed for more than 1 1/2 hour. The train ride was convenient, as it had TV, playing a movie as well as some documentaries; the train had a pantry coach with good and comfortable seats. One thing is for sure, next time, the train is out of question for travel to Singapore.Over all we had good fun also the agents meeting were to a large extend positive. I now really want to settle down in KL or other parts of Malaysia for many reasons, close similarity with India, good food and inexpensive, normal cars (unlike the middle east, where all cars are big and bulky) and close proximity to Singapore.
