    Kuala Lumpur

    Has anyone ever worked / lived here before?

    Other than "well, it's got the Petronas Towers" and "it's the capital of Malaysia" my knowledge of the place is pretty limited and I'd welcome anyones input. I'm off to do a two-day lecture there.

    Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

              You'll enjoy KL. It's a great place to visit. Small enough to see easily and a real nice blend of old and very new. The cricket ground in the city is just something to marvel over, you'll understand why when you see it. The (Beef, it's Muslim there after all) ribs in the KL Hard Rock cafe are awesome! The rapid transport system will be working now which will help with getting around, it wasn't quite finished last time I was there. You'll like it there.

                Do you get breaks for meals & sleep? or are you talking constantly for 48 hrs?
                I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this
