Great people very friendly.
Also loved the food
Shopping in Petaling Jaya was a more pleasant experience than the Silk market in Beijing.
I would think you need to be on your toes all the time watching out for the mopeds doing 70MPH on the sidewalks LOL
Thanks for the photos.
Much obliged buddy.. Malaysia has changed a lot!

Of all the many places I have traveled Malaysian food was by far the best. Brings back good memories... thanks!

I lived in Kuala Lumpur in the 60's when I was a kid. Nice memories.
PS: Good job referring to the beef noodle soup, and not beef tendon soup....
Thank you! There's plenty of good food here and the choices are just amazing!

The little details like 100 Plus, the signs, the local food pictures bring a real joy to me when I see them in your threads.
Thank you and please keep up the good work. One of the bikes I ride here in Vancouver, Canada is a Dahon Helios converted to a singlespeed. If you ever come to visit, I have LOTS of bikes in the stable for us to ride together.
Sure thing buddy!
