Kuala Lumpur (KL)

I have a vague suspicion that the Malaysians have a slight penis envy problem. Let me explain.
KL is full of skyscrapers; absolutely chockers. There is no need for them - they have the space, we are not talking Manhattan here. They could easily extend the city limits by 30km and build smaller buildings, but no the Malaysians like their skyscrapers. In fact so much so that:
The worlds fourth largest telecommunications tower is in KL - Menara Tower
The worlds largest free standing flagpole (ooh, er, missus and all that) is in KL
The worlds largest skyscraper is in KL - Petronas Towers

Q.E.D?

Other than that KL is nothing to get excited about... The food is really rather good and the alcohol is expensive enough to scare any Irishman into Detox. Which is exactly what I need, that and a hot shower which I had last night for the first time since Vietnam, which according to my Blog was the 31st December. First hot shower of 2004!
