I am a foreigner came with my wife to visit Malaysia but its eyesore to see the roads with many pothholes? Why?
I heard from friends that Malaysian is a fast developing country and has got excellent airports and landmarks like Petronas Twin Towers etc. But, to my supprise when I travel along Bangsar, Mont Kiara, Petaling Jaya ( Jalan Gasing), OUG, Jalan Puchong, and other important roads in the heart of Kuala Lumpur, a lot of pothholes are found. Most of the roads are badly maintained. What the Transport Minister and Public Works department in your country is doing? What about the KL Mayor or Federal Territory ministor or Deputy Ministor doing? Daily I watch in your TV, ministers and MPs are talking and talking on stage about petty matters related to opposition only? When read newspapers its same story. Whats happening to the respective ministers who are in charge for all these matters? Where are they?

Due to the heat and the intense traffic, the roads deteriorate extremely quickly. The authorities are not keeping up with it.

Spend some time in anchor wat or egypt to see what happens when you spend money on temples instead of roads.
8 :
ohhh....they are in their office playing with the mistress and busy accepting money Tangkachi, are you one of them or are you a female with a wife wearing sari and talking while shaking the head
9 :
Malaysia has very high road accidents esp in festive seasons. It is mainly on the trunk service roads or well maintained highways. Pot holes or depressions are common in towns and smaller cities. It helps to slow traffic and reduces accidents ironically.

Where is the best Island(s) in South East Asia to go to in mid-January

Where is the best Island(s) in South East Asia to go to in mid-January?
I plan on taking a trip from Kuala Lumpur (where I currently live) to a chilled out island, relatively nearby, but want to avoid the monsoon/any bad weather. I'll be traveling on my own, which I like to do sometimes and I really want peace and quiet, a good beach, plenty of sun and clear water. I want to avoid any of the horrific tourist traps and overpopulated, areas of the South-East Asian Islands. As my girlfriend is overseas and my friends are working, I want a place that I can just read a good book, get a tan, eat some excellent local food, take stunning photos (I'm an amateur photographer) and recharge for the eventual rat-race to come. I have been to: *Perhentian Islands (My favorite) *Tioman (Ok-la) *Redang (Too many tourists... but met some fellow Londoners here!) *Langkawi (Liked it) *Bali (Need to explore more). I was considering Phi Phi / Phuket / Boracay or one of the Sulawesi Islands. I might even go back to Bali, but NW/NE and explore the SE Islands like Lombok. :P
