::When in Malaysia::

Restless after a week vacation to Hong Kong and China, 3 days after that I went to Malaysia. This time it wasn't for vacation but for official work purposes. But when I got there, I'd say it was a combo of work and leisure...

We were staying at the Petaling Jaya Hilton. I've been few times to Malaysia for leisure and had visited Malacca, Genting Highlands and the city itself but I never been to Selangor before. This was my first time going to this State.
Our hotel, transport, expenses were taken care by our government :D
(I'm so grateful enough for being a Bruneian and work for the government)

My room with not so nice view.
Looks like a big screen tv with a boring documentary of buildings.

The Hilton Cafe where we were enjoying our breakfast every morning for the rest of the almost 2 weeks stay and the food was soooo nice!

Yay! Finally I found Harrods in Malaysia. It's located at the KLCC Suria.
A must place to go (applies only to me - I guess, hehe) This was where I spent most of my money at that day.

Borders bookstore at KL Times Square. Another must place to go when I go to Kuala Lumpur apart from Kinokuniya at KLCC Suria.
Ok, this has nothing to do why I was sent to Malaysia but my colleagues and I grabbed the opportunity of the 3 days holiday over there to go shopping and sight seeing.

Some part of the Sunway Pyramid that I managed to shoot.

The Sunway Pyramid.
Think this way - A pyramid but with lots and lots of shops inside :)

Sunway Lagoon: Inside the wild life park. My friend's arm being 'eaten' alive by couples of cute cockatiel bird. He felt ticklish and got goosebumps when it happened. Haha.

Still at the Wild Life Park. We were watching the wild life show.
Pretty amazed with what the parrot can do. Look, he's cycling!

Sunway Lagoon, the Water Park

Another great view inside the Sunway Lagoon theme park.

Water fountain display outside the Sunway Lagoon...
Nice!

KL Times Square. Yup, Christmas spirits everywhere!

Inside the KL Times Square:
There's a roller coaster ride. My friend dared me to ride on this thing, I wasn't up for the challenge considering that I'm kinda acrophobia type of person. No way, not that high!

Ah. The KLCC tower. We were supposed to go on that bridge connecting the 2 towers but when we arrived, the bridge is already closed for the day visit. Too bad...

So we went exploring outside just enjoying the scenes of the beautiful garden...

Inside KLCC Suria. I felt like living in this kinda sweet little house. :)
But not gonna happen - no privacy. Hehe

Top view inside Mid Valley (Another shopping mall).
Look, everybody wanna have some pictures with Santa.

It's been pleasure staying in PJ and our work was great. This picture will conclude all.
I really had a heck of fun working, visiting and of course did the shopping spree... again!
(Until I had a 20 kg of access baggage to bring back home. Haha!)
I really have broken my record this time.

Wow, what a nice places!

I can easily imagine you with tons of shopping bags in both hands:)

Btw, I didn't know you work for the Government. You must be proud of your job!

@Hayden: Hey, nice to hear from you again! Hehe, yup, my backpack wasn't enough so I had to carry with both hands. One time I carried a luggage when I did my shopping there. That was a shock for the hotel concierge to see me like that. Haha.

I'm not really in the state of proud, but just very much thankful for all the privileges being offered. ;) Thanks Hayden!
