March 18, 2024, Monday, the last day of the Kuala Lumpur trip

短暂的吉隆坡之行今天就结束了,下午1点多的火车回槟城,利用上午的时间去了著名的黑风洞,Grab半个小时就到了,花费25马币,门票是免费的。黑风洞是位于马来西亚吉隆坡郊外约11公里处的一处自然奇观,也是一个重要的印度教圣地。这个庞大的石灰岩山洞群以其壮观的自然景观和印度教雕塑而闻名。

The short Kuala Lumpur trip ended today. We took the train back to Penang in the afternoon around 1 pm. We used the morning to visit the famous Batu Caves. It took half an hour by Grab, costing 25 Ringgits, and the entrance was free. Batu Caves is a natural wonder located about 11 kilometers outside of Kuala Lumpur.

吉隆坡之行-中 Kuala Lumpur Visit – Part II

2024年3月17日,星期日,吉隆坡第二天

March 17, 2024, Sunday, the second day in Kuala Lumpur

早上的首要安排是参观双峰塔。抵达售票处时,我们发现只剩下下午两点半的入场券,成人票价为98马币。意外的是,PJG能享有折扣,票价仅需50马币。购票之后,我们决定先前往旁边的KLCC公园。这里不仅是欣赏双峰塔的绝佳地点,也是这座炎热都市中的一片宁静绿洲。

The top priority in the morning was to go to the top of the Petronas Twin Towers. Upon arriving at the ticket office, we discovered that only tickets for 2:30 pm entry were available, with an adult ticket price of 98 Ringgit. Surprisingly, PJG was eligible for a discount, and his ticket price was only 50 Ringgit.

吉隆坡之行-上 Kuala Lumpur Visit – Part I

2024年3月11日-3月18日,来到马来西亚的第三周

March 11-18, 2024, the third week in Malaysia


这周时间匆匆流逝,工作依旧按部就班,其中两个晚上安排了9点和10点的会议。周四,在Coco Island美食中心吃过晚饭后,我俩遇到了一位当地人,与他聊天甚是有趣。这位生活经历丰富的老兄,讲述了他自己令人惊讶的过往:曾为马来西亚的某位皇室成员担任司机,与一位英国知名的发型设计师共事两年,因信用卡诈骗在英国坐过两年牢。他描述那是他经历过的最好的监狱,甚至愿意再次入狱,因为那里的人都受到人道对待,还因为他是马来西亚人,监狱特意为他准备了炒饭。相比之下,他在马来西亚的监狱待了六个月,坚称宁死也不愿再踏入马来西亚的监狱。他自称是一个“老花花公子”,但让我俩意外的是,他对许多实事的观点却比较自由主义的。好了,不多说了,我还是继续记录这个周末去吉隆坡的短途旅行吧。

This week passed by in a flash, and work continued as usual, with meetings scheduled at 9 pm and 10 pm on two evenings as well as an early morning meeting. On Thursday, after having dinner at the Coco Island food center, we met a local person, and found chatting with him was quite interesting. This man, who had a wealth of life experiences, recounted his own surprising past: he had served as a driver for a member of the Malaysian Royal family, worked with a well-known British hairstylist for two years, and spent two years in prison in the UK for credit card fraud.
