1 day I go 2 climb up a 3 outside a house to peep. But the couple saw me, so I panic and 4 down. The man rush out and wanted to 5 with me. I run so fast until I fall 6 and throw up. So I go into 7 eleven and grab some 8 to throw at him. Then I took a 9 and try to stab him. 10 God he run away. So, I put the 9 back and pay for the 8 and left 7 eleven.

Batu Caves - Monkeys and Overpriced Roti Canai
And those MONKEYS i told you about…
Roti canai is awesome, at batu caves its about double its price, e.g anywhere else its about $1-2rm, at Batu Caves its was $3-4rm Tourist spot tricks.
Melissa’s a monkey.
Teh tarik is off the hizz
Batu Caves
Just over 10km outside of KL you’ll find the Batu Caves, a sacred place for the Hindu’s in Malaysia. Discovered in 1892, The caves mainly consist of limestones and hungry monkeys. Its a 272 step climb to the top, so make sure you have filled up with over priced /tourist priced Roti canai at the bottom. At the top you will find peace - temples… and a souvenir shop :-D
It poured down that day and the steps were really narrow and slippery, only ancient Chinese women with binded feet would be comfortable with these stairs. I had to side step all the way down while taking photos of monkeys, MikeP would have been loving it.
At 42.m statue of the most popular Tamil Hindu deity Murugan (tallest in the world of this deity). Yup, That’s Whats up.
Should have done a rocky pose.
A souvenir shop in a fricken cave, man!
cool.
Around Town
Just a few touristy stuff.
Istana Negara / state palace, Kuala Lumpur

Just like in Britain, uniforms and all. But in the 40c heat!

“Dedicated to the heroic fighters in the cause of peace and freedom
May the blessings of Allah be upon them”

Some nice old school buildings around Merdeka square, heres Sultan Abdul Samad Building
Menara Kuala Lumpur - prob not worth the fare up there….?

Pasar Karat
Parallel to Petaling Street is a China Town hardly seen by tourist in KL. In a back alley there is a thriving ‘Market of thieves’, a Junk market that opens from about 4:30am and gone by 10:00am. They call it Pasar Karat (rust market).
Everything is displayed on the floor. But the place is packed. Its like a flea market, where you can find anything second hand, old ornamental collectable, antiques and watches that were probably stolen. Theres electronics, Traditional medicine, vcds and dvds, T-shirts and even toys so old I wouldn’t even touch.
I see a chiense man spewing in a red bucket, next to him a malay man massaging traditional herbal medicine on a lady’s foot. Across them a plastic sheet lays with nic nacs spread out, the stuff you would find in a dumpster. who the buys single felt tip pens and half working head phones?
There are stories of people taking home a 29’ LCD screens, 80gig ipod and nokia N95
From what I’ve heard this market started from a family of thieves, and today there is a syndicate collecting $10 ringgit from each vendor.
I took photos descretely, as you would when taking shots of potential stolen goods/crap.
First Stop. Petaling Street, KL
When Im not staying at a friend’s house in KL Its usually at a backpackers, most backpackers in KL are located at center of Kuala Lumpur’s original Chinatown.This time though id step it up and stay in an (average) hotel, funny thing is its nextdoor to the backpackers i used to saty at. Once you step out side of the air-con sanctuary its Petaling Street - probably the most ghetto, steamy, sweaty, smelly etc etc part of inner city. Petaling Street goes off. Its is a great place for locals to get some goods (cheap clothes, fabrics, hookers, souvenirs, electronic items… ) at bargain prices and tourists to get ripped off. A lot friends were like “why stay there? soo dangerous lah”, “very very dirty place, better stay in proper place lah”. Sure they got shiny buildings and air-con malls, the streets is the essence in asia.
