Earth Hour 2009

I supported Earth Hour 2009.


I shut off all unnecessary electric equipment from 8.30pm to 9.30pm on 28 March 2009.

This is what my house looked like during Earth hour

Yay... I just saved the world.

I think I should be given a Datuk title. :-)

KL Tower

KL Tower, also known as Menara Kuala Lumpur is located in the heart of KL city.


Being 421 meters tall, it is the fifth tallest telecommunication tower in the world as at the day I posted this post. It is said that its purpose is to enhance the quality of telecommunication and the clarity of broadcasting, I've no idea how it can do it but I know that we Malaysians can proudly hao lian the achievements of our country to other people by saying: "Don't play play, we have the fifth tallest tower in the whole world ok..."




I seriously don't know how long the KL Tower is going to hold its place as the fifth tallest tower as there are so many countries out there, being kiasu, trying to build the tallest tower in the world. So I recommended that if the KL Tower is out of the top ten tallest towers in the world, the government can build another taller one in Perlis. We have a perfect spot at Seriab there, beside the Mini Putrajaya.

Being so free during one weekend I visited the KL Tower, it's very easy to reach as all you have to do is follow the tower and find the road. Believe me this method works as I've tried using this method to find KLCC and Komtar in Penang as well.

A couple planning to get married some 400 meters high, that's special

The ticket price was a bit expensive for me but we Malaysian citizens have special discounts by showing our identity card during purchase.



The lift to the observation deck is a special one as it shows the current height you've reached.



Once I've reached the observation deck, the whole KL city view was in front of my eye. You can see the city view 360 degrees as the observation deck is one whole floor of the tower.

The day I went there the whether wasn't so good and the city was covered in clouds and haze, I think the view will be more beautiful if I visit on a bright sunny day.

People mountain people sea

The KL Tower also provided free powerful binoculars around the observation deck so that we can see other people making reproduction activities in the hotel rooms nearby.

The cafe should be renamed Simply Expensive Cafe

On the observation deck there were lots of shops selling overpriced food and souvenirs. A corn in a cup was selling at RM3 per cup, sorry, small cup and yet there were lots of customers willingly to pay a premium so that they can have an experience of eating corns so high above sea level. Definitely not worth it.

Pineapple shaped rubbish bin 400 meters above sea level, something to be proud of.

When I came down from the tower and went to take my car, I saw lots of monkeys around the car park and I managed to take some photos of those cute little things.


I think the car owner left some bananas inside the car.

Putrajaya Seafood Restaurant

Putrajaya, being an administrative center or city for the Malaysian government maybe the last place on earth to hunt for seafood, but for me it is one of the best place to enjoy the sunset view while you dine.


Putrajaya Seafood Restaurant is situated right beside the Putrajaya lake, to be honest, it's quite hard to find it. You have to drive all the way into some kind of botanical garden with no proper roadsign or signboard to lead you to the restaurant, not to mention that all Putrajaya roads are almost identical.


When I reached there around 7pm, there were some guards chasing people out of the botanical garden, this is because when night falls a lot of couples make it a free place to carry out human reproduction activities.


If you are so unlucky and questioned by the guards you'll have to tell them you are going to the restaurant or else they'll kick you out.


The food at the restaurant was OK for me, so if you regard the high price you pay is for the experience of dining with the sunset lakeview, you'll be sort of happier.

Here are some shots of the sunset view which I took it with my humble little camera.

From a fantastic sunset view turning into a well lit place, I love this place so much. If a reasonably priced mamak stall opens here I'll come here every weekend to enjoy the view.

Japanese buffet promotion

Got this from a colleague.

Looks tempting, got 50% discount buffet, weekend rate some more... and the food in the picture looks delicious.
