Putrajaya - Malaysia's administrative capital. Pics compiled from those posted in the Malaysian forum.
let me ask u one question: how often do u go there??JWvW said:was there last year and it's sooooo empty... like a deserted disneyland. it's all a bit kitsch. and the sad thing is that it was built in the context of the 2020 goals of malaysia (to be a first world country by 2020) but come on you don't achieve that by building a big disneyland for your government while a large part of the population is still living in slums... big waste of money... a pity.
hey,don't be so rude and please ...!! don't 'talk' without the facts...JWvW said:...a large part of the population is still living in slums... big waste of money... a pity.
dude, don't be quick to pass on judgements...and if you do, throw in some facts and figures and make a sound 'impression' based on what you know and not by what you 'see' or 'heard'..Malaysia has come a long way and Putrajaya is not just a grandiose scheme that is a waste of money...give it some time to mature..and by the time KL bursts off the seams...Putrajaya would be ready to catch the spill and accelerate growth at ease...and affordable and by that time would have created a helthy living, modern and self contained city. Malaysia's vision is to look forward and plan ahead and spread growth to the outskirts...and as in the case of Putrajaya...out in nowhere, but look now...sattelite cities and sprouting all over from the 'rural' site of KLIA all the way to KL...JWvW said:was there last year and it's sooooo empty... like a deserted disneyland. it's all a bit kitsch. and the sad thing is that it was built in the context of the 2020 goals of malaysia (to be a first world country by 2020) but come on you don't achieve that by building a big disneyland for your government while a large part of the population is still living in slums... big waste of money... a pity.
