 Jalan Petaling, Chinatown | Malaysia Part 2 - Shopping in Kuala LumpurCities like Singapore and Kuala Lumpur are so much bigger than Denpasar, so it is not surprising that shopping becomes one of the main activites for the trip. Jalan Petaling in the heart of Chinatown is a covered market street that stays open late. Quality silk ties caught my eye and reminded me of my past life - I don't think I have worn one since arriving in Bali 11 months ago | | Low Yat Plaza is just of Jalan Bukit Bintang near to the Federal Hotel. It is a large complex of 5 or 6 levels devoted to computers, cameras and the like. I could have spent hours browsing. While many shops were specifically focussed, and had customers sitting across counters from sales-people -- I found one large store high up which was like a Tandy of Dick Smith. Rows and rows of mechandise you could pick up and read. I got a USB hub, and a USB 2 extension cable. |  Low Yat Plaza for techo stuff |  Pavillion for fashion | The Pavillion is a huge, new (open 2 months) complex with lots of designer labels - a paradise for fashion shoppers. It was already dressed for Xmas and was about to host some fashion event that required a red carpet that you can see on the staircase opposite.
