malaysia trip june 2005

interesting pix from my trip to kuala lumpur, capital of malaysia.

interior of the malaysian international airport in kuala lumpur.

this is a billboard ad for a flat screen tv with the brand name WEGA .... written in malay language.
i am not sure if many of u know that the malay and indonesian language has some similarities. both languages came from the same root, but later on each got developed with different pace.

so here is the literal translation of the ad (remember this is written in malay):

sesetengah benda lebih elok rata seperti wega = half of it is prettier when it is flat like wega

tv skrin biasa ternyata tewas oleh wega = regular tv screens actually is dead by wega

i am not saying this to make fun of the malay language, that is NOT my intention at all. i am just writing what i saw.

my bro in his newly-bought BATIK shirt ..... and it is VERY unusual for him to wear batik shirts. the reason being, is that we were to enter a casino on GENTING highland, the mountainous area outside kuala lumpur. and since the men were only allowed to enter with their collared shirts, therefore .... such is my brother's situation.

one of the pics on the casino's billboard. i thought it was so damn funny how they covered the eyes of the winners. and unfortunately, after taking this pic ... i almost got dragged into the security room. but luckily ... i got out of it just fine.
