Putrajaya Malaysia Photos

Putrajaya reminds to the early days of Brasilia when bureaucrats and architects put something at a green piece of land and forgot the people.

actually this is nothing new when bureaucrats and architects do something. This new administrative capital looks nice but I couldn’t find a restaurant when I was hungry, remember all this great Malaysian curry chicken I already eat 40 years ago, I couldn’t even find a simple coke but huge administrative temples where bureaucrats showed that they are there. But it looks like they consider the people rather as an faulty incident.

The striking white-pink Putra Mosque is a unique attractions and the Seri Saujana Bridge is another one, but that wont serve the hungry stomach and wont let the kids laugh, lets get some curry chicken, laksa, fried noodles, coke, ice-cream and other stuff to the people, got the message?, the capital is for the people not for the bureaucrats only.

A suggestion, get a couple of boats there for rent so that the people have a nice water fun, get some bicycles for rent to move around since the area is quite large. Get open buses circle every 15 minutes  at the main road, Do the Putrajaya cruise every 30 minutes and connect the whole to KL. The way as it is connected now (beginning of 2011) is no good, the buses go on very long intervals, the train is very expensive etc.

I think the Malaysian government people should think (at least a little bit) that they are here to SERVE the people, so give them something to make them happy, don't be selfish, the people pay your salary!

Malaysia is a country to discover an exotic Asian culture with a long history, today the country is attracting the largest numbers of tourists every year, one of the most resent attractions is Putrajaya the new capital an hour with the bus south of Kuala Lumpur.

Malaysia had a great progress in the last few decades, despite their historical past with political conflicts of the different ethnic groups which is less and less visible but there is a massive Islamisation effort fueled by Arab money from the Gulf States, including Saudi Arabia. Plenty of great tourist sites and beach resorts are all over the country. Old and modern architectonic structures and large metropolitan areas such as Kuala Lumpur, Penang Georgetown and other places makes the country a excellent travel destination.
