I like KL a lot. It's not fancy or flashy or shiny like Singapore but I like it a lot more than Thailand. Its got a kind of really roots Asia appeal but why do people stare so much at foreigners? I think I noticed more staring on the train system and in shopping malls on me in KL than I ever felt in India or China or anywhere else.
And by the way, how come so many of the Muslims in headdress look Chinese? |
KL is good, I like Asia, but it looks like I'm going to get an extraordinary opportunity in NY, so I have to do it.
I don't ride the trains, although the system is great and being greatly expanded - work to be completed in 2017. I have a small motobike that I ride around to our outlets. Or I take Uber X which is super cheap here.
The look of Malays can really vary. Some look like Ewoks, some are stunning model-looking and then some have some Chinese blood in them (or Indian) - a Chinese mother and a Malay father. By law in such a mixed marriage the non-Muslim party must convert to Islam and affirm they will raise the kids as Muslims. No separation of Church (or should I say Mosque) & State here!
