So why don't you like KL enough to stay longer there?
Do you think its a safe city in the longer term?
We were warned about bag snatching and muggings, does this happen a lot?

Purely a business decision. We're growing the brand and slated to open up shop in New York in 2017. I just follow the money . . .
I think it's a safe enough city. They don't fuck with white foreigners much, but the foreign workers (Bangladesh, India, Nepal, etc) make easy targets for the police and muggers.
I live in a great neighborhood, but there are a couple of "beware of purse-snatcher" metal road signs (like a yield or stop sign) literally showing a guy snatching a bag. Never happened to me, but I rarely go to bars or clubs. I work and come home. Boring but productive.

I have traveled and lived in many different countries. But you have lived in much more "not so" western areas which makes it seem that much more interesting to me.
Keep these types of posts coming. |
Thanks! Will do. I'm looking at doing Afghanistan, probably Kabul, next year. A lot of logistics go into a trip like that. If not there, I'm really interested in Tehran.
