I knew that there is a place called Bali since my childhood. Long time ago traders from my province (Orissa, India) used to trade handicrafts and other stuffs at Bali. To commemorate those old ties, we organize Bali Jatra (Bali festival) once a year at Cuttack (the old capital of my province, which was the center of trade and politics till 50 years ago). And when finally I decided to make a trip to Bali it was like a dream come true. Date: 13/04/2008

In Bahasa Malayu, Kuala Lumpur means ?muddy confluence?. Kuala Lumpur was the location of tin mines in 1850s and KL?s journey from tin mines to a modern and vibrant metropolis is astounding that rivals any modern city in the world. During the golden days of miraculous economic development in late 90?s, KL forced itself in to prominence by building the tallest skyscraper in the world, Petronas Twin Tower. This engineering marvel along with many other attractions in and around KL makes KL one of the best locations in Malaysia to visit. Date: 13/04/2008
