Kuala Lumpur Experiences

[Nerd]

Pathetic attempt at covering the twin towers and the KLCC tower at night. Taken from the shoulder of a highway.

Nice pics... how about some with faces?

Good luck. Please go with lots of appetite And do NOT spend too much time in Singapore, definitely not worth it.

He isn't going to singapore.. to much (visa) hassles it seems
and he is a pure vegetarian... any suggestions for him and his wife?

Visa hassles-aa? Namma Joe kitta oru vaarththai sollirunthaa eduththu kuduththiruppaarE :P

Veg. no problem. My father and brother are vegetarian too and they had no issues. But enna experiment panna mudiyaadhu. NOV, you will obviously be a better guide, but sila pala idangaLLa veg options sumaar. I mean parotta-vukku sambaar ellaam kuduthaanga. Indian chains niRaiya irukku. And in many SI restaurants they play awesome music. 60s/80s TFM!!! Anyway things not to miss, the usual suspects:

1. KLCC, petronas, preferably at night
2. Putrajeya
3. Batu Caves (climb to the top)
4. Genting (We did not go)
5. Langkawi (Please spend at least a night there). If interested in water sports, you definitely need a local to haggle. They quoted 120RM for para-sailing and we had a local in our group and she was able to bring it down to 50 with a banana boat ride.
6. Not sure if they will have time to travel to Penang, but definitely worth it.

He is applying in Singapore - apparently they are asking too many things. I told him to come to Malaysia and then maybe try from here.

I think so too... but am planning to take them to chinese vegetarian restaurants to try out mock meat

Genting - Is this the same as First World Hotels? ...

First world hotel is in Genting Highlands. This place's speciality is the casino and the theme park.

Singapore visa issues, eh? My visa took 15 minutes

*If you have someone in the singapore, you can apply online and it takes about 15 minutes to get the e-visa and I got it sitting in the United States.
*If not, for < 2K travel agents can get the visa for you.

Not sure if something has changed
