Our vision of Malaysia
Our experience of Malaysia was odd….. I had been there as a kid, well, I had lived in Singapore during the gorilla war there, and Singapore had changed out of recognition, so I didn’t recognise it any more, but Kuching, in Borneo, was familiar, as the houses there were, by and large, human sized, rather than skyscrapers, which is what they have become in Singapore – generally about three stories high, and that was that.
Kaula Lumpur, on the other hand was enormous! Huge buildings, including the famous double tower, which is……
Petronas Twin Towers
The one good thing about KL, as it is known by all the inhabitants of that huge city, is the network of walkways that go everywhere and on top of that, they are also airconditioned!!!! I wandered through this system frequently…. And loved it too. It was seriously the best way to get around KL.

As it has shops and cafes inside it, it is not necessary to go outside if you want to get around in KL.
That amazing system aside, KL is a normal city, and in no way remarkable. We lived in a block of flats, in no way remarkable. I shall write about that soon.
