KUALA LUMPUR
             
2001
In 2001 I revisited Malaya with 656 Squadron Association. Having spent three nights in Singapore we travelled by coach to Kuala Lumpur. It had been 42 years since I was last there and the few area's of the city that I could remember were around the famous railway station and the old colonial district. Like Singapore dramatic changes had taken place and giant skyscrapers were everywhere, the Petronis building and the Telecom tower were magnificent.
