| KL Revisited: Part I |
My personal collection of past images of this Capital city, back in mid-80’s and 90’s were blurry images of many places and faces. As an outsider - a village boy hailed from Taiping and Parit Buntar and was stepping into the ‘black-hole of freedom’ of university life – vivid memories from my past-subconscious mind are strictly about these stuff:
1. Puduraya was a big Chimney, and busier than Heathrow and Changi combined!
2. Notoriety of Bas Mini 22 and the zippiness of Bangkok Bank
3. Kotaraya , Bus Stand Klang and coverage area were the centre of the Universe, and not KLCC or the Solar System
4. Bangsar Hawker Centre and Uptown Damansara were the best places to be seen - after nite out at Modesto’s or Bum2 etc
5. Central Markets was a little Sicily to me, yet a melting pot for old friends’ Underground Music scene and the ONLY place to order your Campus’ tees.
6. Gadgets and football boots from Pertama vs Jeans and T-shirts from BB – or both from Petaling St. aka PS
7. The Mall was ‘the first Asian’s Disneyland’ before Hong Kong! [yeaaahh!]
8. Pavillion was a School back then! [who says Education can not sell??]
9. Let me think more lah…{vote?} http://www.blog4ft.com/index.php?page=systems/voting&eid=277 Labels: KL life |
