Locals point of view
- shots of daily morning market (pasar pagi) near my house
- guy making a popular south indian dish that Malaysians would have for breakfast or snacks
- malaysian usually eat out, even for breakfast; we do so at kopitiams (coffee shops) which have different stalls selling all sort of dishes that someone in North America would only have for lunch or dinner
- for example, my breakfast was Char Kuey Teow, a very oily fried noodle. There are alot of Char Kuey Teow wannabes in Toronto

Foreigner point of view:
-been told that jaywalking is actually safer than crossing at lights
-found of that it is actually true as during rush hour, traffic lights mean nothing, red does not mean stop for cars as long as there is a herd of drivers that want to run the red light
-jaywalking in KL freaks me out...
Tomorrow: more on Malay New Year and Malaysian Independence Day celebration..
