Putrajaya

Putrajaya is the new administrative capital of Malaysia. It is situated 25 kilometers south of Kuala Lumpur and 20 kilometers north of the Kuala Lumpur International Airport. It was carved out of virgin rubber lands in the Sepang district of Selangor. Occupying a total land area of about 5000 hectares, Putrajaya is the newest pride of the nation with majestic architectural design buildings, bridge

He was excited about his new goggles. I could tell that he couldn't wait to jump into the pool when we took him for a site inspection. Then again, I must admit that Putrajaya Shangri-la hotel does have a beautiful adult and children pool with lovely views of Putrajaya. We had a wonderful and relaxing time at the pool...

The last few days have been pretty stressful for me. I discovered that something had gone wrong with this blog and being a non-techie blogger, it took me some time to find the relevant help. Then I was busy with an in-house training in Putrajaya and was staying with Putrajaya Shangri-la over the work trip. Unlike [...]

Great! Just great!A few days ago our Information Minister Dato’ Seri Zainuddin Maidin gave us the indication that our Malaysian press may have been given explicit instruction to concoct perpetrated news that could win the hearts of the Malaysian public. Any other news that may jeopardize the nation or to be more precise, the government, could have been instructed to be played down or suppressed!Excellent!Well, guess what my dear good Dato’… I’m sure that you would know by now that those France-based folks over at Reporters Without Borders Dot Org have recently released their Worldwide Press Freedom Index for the year 2007. Do you know how and where they rank Malaysia this year?Pathetic! We are in the 124th position (MalaysiaKini has more on this story) out of 169 countries! Even Israel and Tonga are ranked higher than Malaysia! How embarrassing!Malaysia Boleh, my dear Dato’, eh? :-)What a heartbreaker! This whole thing really spoils up our current government feel-good propaga

I got a free night stay in Shangri-la hotels, and DH suggested that we spend it in Putrajaya Shangri-la during the Raya holiday. That’s how we ended up in Putrajaya on Sun-Mon. Guess we made a right choice, away from the crowd in the city. Nothing much to do there, but enough to stress us. Well, actually with my 2 kids, wherever we are, we would be stressed. My two kids have their own ‘problems’. Take Ian as example. He has poo-poo problem. He never go regularly, and he always want to poo-poo at the least convenient moment - meal time. And he never want to do it in public toilet. He always want to hold it till he reaches home, or in this case the hotel room. We wanted to eat something that Ian loves most - the chicken rice. So we went to Alamanda’s Chicken Rice Shop. When our dinner just arrived, Ian had difficulties eating (his first sign of stomach stress). Then, he screamed (yes, practically screamed) loudly that ‘it’ is coming out &l

It was the final day of the Malaysian Fireworks competition. Thousands of Malaysian stormed Putrajaya yesterday to witness the spectacles. I reckon Putrajaya has never been visited by many ever... [[ This is a content summary only. Visit my website for full links, other content, and more! ]]

Putrajaya is the location for Malaysia’s central government. It is arguably the pride of Malaysia’s impressive structure as its buildings act as proof to this very statement. Furthermore, all the buildings are inspired by a hybrid of influences, from Middle Eastern architecture to a blend of local designs. However, no matter where the building’s design inspirations are derived from, visitors from

Phooh..What a night..I just got back from Putrajaya International Convention Centre (PICC) for the akad nikah. Penuh dengan suasana yang penuh emosi dan suspens detik-detik penyerahan penjagaan dan perlindungan dari bapa pasangan, pesanan ibu kepada anak yang sudah menjadi isteri. Suasana yang penuh mencengkam jiwa ini bukan sahaja menyebabkan titisan air mata dari pasangan dan juga para ibu bapa sahaja tetapi juga Farah Adeeba yang mengacarakan program ini juga agak sebak berlinangan. Mana taknya, Farah sudah bersama dengan mereka selama berminggu-minggu. Farah juga menemani mereka semasa upacara pertunangan di tempat masing-masing. Walau bagaimanapun, selesailah sudah saat yang paling dinantikan, upacara akad nikah yang mengesahkan ketiga-tiga pasangan Cari Menantu sebagai suami isteri. Ketiga-tiga pasangan tersebut adalah Divesh Kumar Danial Kakulai, 28, dan Engku Rabaal Adawiah Engku Zahit, 24, Ahmad Lofti Abd Wahab, 28, dan Sarah Wani Rahim, 28, dari Pulau Pinang dan Amirud

Yesterday I had a business event to attend in Shangri-la Putrajaya.  As much as I feared, I got lost again in Putrajaya, couldn’t find my way to the hotel! This is the second time I got lost in that area!  Last time, I tried to get to the Cyber View Lodge Resort in Cyberjaya, and I was lost too. Well, I actually know where the hotel is, been there before 4 years ago.  But what I could recall was just: it is in the centre of the huge round-about in the ‘city centre’.  If I get to the ‘huge roundabout thingy’, I will know how to get to Shangri-la.  My problem is, I don’t know how to get to that ‘huge roundabout thingy’ from the highway! Okay, I admit that I am as blur as a sotong.  I printed out the map the night before, left it at the printer!  Then, I thought I could find the way by reading the signboards along the roads.  I ‘bravely’ drove my way there without asking anyone for directions! Alright, I finally reach

However, Kuala Lumpur still serves as Malaysia's national and legislative capital. The city is located at 2°55' North, 101°40' East (2.91667, 101.667).The city is named after the first Malaysian Prime Minister, Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra.
