Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Now back to Starbucks we have our new "best friends!"
How is this for coffee prices? It is in Malaysian ringets which is about $1 can =$3 MRinget. A lot of things are cheaper...but not the World Wide Companies.
Malaysia is known for its batik so thought I would try it out. Had a fabulous local artist as a teacher and loved working on the silk. I would have loved a week of classes !!!!
An example of a modern Malaysian living. It is far more contemporary than we expected. This was a showroom at a cultural centre and not sure how many families could afford this look.
K.L.'s Twin Tower out of our hotel window. This is a huge shopping mall full of every name brand shop you can imagine with big price tags !
