Meeting people from all over Malaysia, this is a conversation that will always take place, somehow or another. And each time I feel more and more barbarian. Lol. Let me explain.

So, where are you from?

Um, KL! ( KL rocks!:) )

Ohhh..so can go back every week la. Which part?

Taman Melawati.

Where's that?

Um, its the outskirts of KL. Like the border between KL and Selangor.

Oh, you mean like Damansara! Somewhere there?

... no no... its no where near Damansara, not at all. Have you heard of Bukit Tabuh?

Er..no.

Its... um... *racks brain* (and i ALWAYS say this) its near Zoo Negara! *genius!* (see what I mean about barbarian!)

Ohhhhhh... *knowingly* I see:)

Pheww...

Why does no one know where Taman Melawati is??:( For the fun of it, I googled 'taman melawati', and this is what I found:

Taman Melawati is a self-contained town within the Malaysian capital, Kuala Lumpur. It is administrated by Majlis Perbandaran Ampang Jaya (MPAJ). Many local celebrities and politicians are known to reside here. The International School of Kuala Lumpur (Elementary Campus) and the Malaysian Institute of Art (MIA) are located in this town. There is also a private hospital, Damai Service Hospital, and a clubhouse, Kklub, in this town. Zoo Negara, the national zoo, is located nearby. One of the hills in this town, Bukit Tabur, is a popular hiking spot while the main entrance of the Klang Gates Dam is found in this town.

Maybe I should memorise this and spout it out whenever someone asks me where Taman Melawati is. Lol.

But I thought of something better. Aha!

Taman Melawati was once where KTT was, long long ago.

Seriously. Lol.

I wanted to put some pics of beloved ol' melawati but my com hates me:( Oh well. maybe some other time..

Cheerio!:)
