MalaysiaAsia: When people talk about fiery sunsets, this is what it's supposed to roughly look like. With bits of red, amber & orange dominating the golden hour, it creates a myriad of fiery tones for that couple of minutes after the sun vanishes behind the sea line. I
MalaysiaAsia: That time I walked pass the Burj Khalifa just before sunset and one side of the tower caught the evening sun in downtown #Dubai. These are moments that inspire me to get ready for travels as the world slowly opens up from #Covid19. I guess my travel choic

MalaysiaAsia: Taken at Jonker Street in Melaka during Chinese New Year where the entire street was lit up with red lanterns. To be very honest, it's been more than 10 years since I've visited Melaka during the festive season, and this is what it looks like. Galaxy Z F
MalaysiaAsia: The rare Balinese Myna, photographed by me, and at all places - in Dubai! This beautiful white and blue coloured bird is also known as Rothschild's mynah, Bali starling, or Bali mynah, locally known as Jalak Bali. Many birders have this on their wish list

MalaysiaAsia: Lalaport BBCC, the latest lifestyle shopping mall that will opening 20th Jan 2022. This morning, I was privileged to be invited over for a media preview of the mall before they officially open you the public. As you can see from the photos taken, #lalapor
MalaysiaAsia: I'm hoping to turn some of my #KLPhotoWalk photos into a #nft and of course, I wonder if they would be bought? Just a thought that crossed my mind this evening. This photo was taken at Kwai Chai Hong in the older part of Kuala Lumpur where I take people o
MalaysiaAsia: Fact Friday - Smartphones have come a long way since my iPhone 1 days in July 2007, marking my 15 year journey using these phones. After iPhone 3GS, I moved to Samsung Note 1 while camera technology improved tremendously since back then, and nowadays, I s
MalaysiaAsia: Art can be seen in many different ways, and each person is entitled to their own way of appreciation. I saw this burned-down bike at one of the back lanes of Chinatown KL and found a unique fascination towards it. I'm also pretty sure there was some sort
MalaysiaAsia: A few weeks back, I took some time to explore Kampung Ayer Salak, which is known as a large Catholic Chinese community, located way out of Melaka City. And what surprised me was this beautiful old style church that has been around since 1886. It's been re

MalaysiaAsia: I went birdwatching yesterday at Upper Gombak, Mile 12 (Batu 12) and for that quick moment, I thought I was transported to the world famous Ta Prohm Temple in Siem Reap, Cambodia. Actually, this was right here in Selangor, where an old British House was d
MalaysiaAsia: On a recent trip to Sekinchan in Selangor, I stopped by at this beautiful Indian Temple at Bukit Rotan. However, I missed the visitation timing and managed to get this external shot using my Galaxy Z Flip3 smartphone. I assumed this was a Ganesha Temple b
MalaysiaAsia: Melaka's Red Square or Stadhuys on a Monday afternoon looks quite empty as it recently opened up to local tourism. I managed to take a nice long walk all over the old area of Melaka, just to see who's open and who's closed after the Covid19 pandemic bulld
MalaysiaAsia: Looking up in Kuala Lumpur, the "city of dreams" for many from around Malaysia, and some other countries. KL city is also part of my home as I grew up in both Kuala Lumpur & Petaling Jaya or PJ. I spent a good part of my teenage years in and out of KL, wh
MalaysiaAsia: It's as if someone is watching you. A large moth was spotted during my night walk yesterday at one of the local community forests. This photo was taken with a Galaxy Z Flip3 5G and handheld with a distance of maybe 3-4 cm from the moth. I'm quite impresse
MalaysiaAsia: Some of the old memories of Southern Thailand when I explored about 10 years ago. The White Buddha on the hill is actually quite large, around 30 to 40 meters tall and sits peacefully among the rainforest hills here. #thailand #amazingthailand #visitthail
MalaysiaAsia: There are days when I just drive past something that catches my eye. I then stop and reverse, or make a turn back just to have a second glance. This is what I did at Kota Damansara, when I passed an Indian Temple and parked down the road, walking back to
MalaysiaAsia: Once known as Bangkok Bank, this iconic landmark goes all the way back to my early school days of taking the reckless 'Mini Buses' and stopping here. Sadly, many will never know the excoting yet horrendous days of public transport in Kuala Lumpur, that th
MalaysiaAsia: Kuala Lumpur's vibrant building art is a reminder to everyone that not all is lost. The Covid19 pandemic may have disrupted our regular lifestyle for the last 16 months, but we will come back stronger for many of us. This beautiful Malaysian mural can be
MalaysiaAsia: Us city people are madly missing places like this around Malaysia, and around the world too. Nothing beats a beautiful beach sunset like this photo taken at Damai Beach in Sarawak, Borneo. While we count the days to the local borders opening, many are now
