Selangor Has More…

This blog post is submitted as an entry to Tourism Selangor Writing Competition. So, I decided to go point by point and tell you my favourite. As a brief history, I actually shifted to Ampang, Selangor a year ago and I actually only passed by Selangor daily. But being a KL-ite, if you don’t pass Selangor, you are definitely missing out something. Getting back to the post: Selangor Has More…. FOOD: food Face the fact, I am a Malaysian. I can’t run away from food. We are all spoilt for choices. And everywhere I head to, it’s usually “Have You Eaten?” or “Jiak Pa Be?”. Thats how we really start our conversation. But my real pick in Selangor? This one: ramli This Ramli Burger gives me a “burg-asm”; my friend claims it. It’s one of the most messy burger I’ve ever seen in my life. It’s also a stall with long queues all over. Location: Jalan Kerja Ayer Lama, Ampang between ISKL and SPCA, infront of 7 Eleven. PLACE TO STAY: For obvious reasons right? I stay there. Sure there are place to stay. But I mean if you are tourist, Selangor is one of the states which has the best and coolest hotels all over the town ranging from Gombak to Klang to Kuala Langat and to Sepang. If you want the starts and the moon, Selangor Hotels definitely has different star ratings on their hotel. From backpackers inn to mid-range hotels to classy hotels. stay If I were to take a pick, I’d be bias. Cause here is my pick: house My House! It’s too comfy. I like the way it is. The environment. And of course the people in it that makes it much cooler eh? Location? Sorry, message me to find out la. Trust me. It’s the coolest place on earth! SIGHT-SEEING: I bet, it won’t be complete. The list just got too long that I can’t even tell you all of them. But some interesting places in Selangor includes: see There are just too many that I can’t even pick one to select. But in the whole long list, I am proud to have been to some of them. But someone sponsor me to go to all of them, can? But.. Let me just say this is my pick, and I think you’d have to agree with me: icity This was taken at i-City in Shah Alam. One of the most phenomenal lighting effects you’ll ever see in the world. Address of i-City: CityPark, 40000 Shah Alam, Selangor THINGS TO DO: I actually don’t mean this in a bad bad way. I dont want to give you things to do. Instead I give you luxury to enjoy. Thats me, luxury is me. Honestly. So, here you can go shopping. shoping In my honest opinion, there are so many shopping malls in Selangor. A few I enjoy most? Here’s my pick(s)! There are just too many yo! Jaya One Mall:(No. 72A Jalan Universiti, 46200 Petaling Jaya 46200 Selangor Darul Ehsan.) One Utama Shopping Centre: (1, Lebuh Bandar Utama, 47800 Petaling Jaya, Selangor Darul Ehsan.) If you are young and energetic, just like my. And all you wanna do is to Party on the Dancefloor, fret not cause Selangor does have Nightlife. nightlifeYou’ve bars, bistro, restaurant which you can party your night away. Okay, not in the restaurant. But my point is, if you are on a trip or a tour in Selangor, you don’t want to waste a single second here right? It’s important to make your trip worth-while. Here’s my pick for Nightlife: Laundry: (Lot G75 & 76, Ground Floor, Western Courtyard, The Curve, No. 6 PJU 7/3, Mutiara Damansara, 47800 Petaling Jaya, Selangor) No I am not asking you to do your Laundry. But go check them out. It’s pretty awesome. Up next, EDUCATION. I beg to differ when people tend to think Education in other countries are better. It’s not always the case. educationThere are just too many education institution in Selangor. One of my neighbouring College, which I think it’s one of the best in the line is International Medical University Location: Jalan 51/215 Seksyen 51, 57000 Petaling Jaya, Selangor And also, I am not a Sports fan, but it’s always good to give yourself a tid bit of fresh air. Or I just love pronouncing it as “freshair”. todo2You know where sports bring people together. Sports is also important in bringing good health. In Selangor, it’s not just a place filled with Sports location, but Selangor itself is famous for hosting and sponsoring Sporting activities. I think one of those that I sounds most interesting in the website was: Flying Fox and Abseiling. Location: Pisang Waterfalls near the Karak Highway Don’t ask me why it’s called Pisang Waterfalls okay? Maybe the Waterfalls there really grow bananas. Also, Selangor Has More… OPPORTUNITIES. Whether it’s personal or business growth, Selangor offers a wide range of Opportunities. money Here’s my unsuccessful attempt in looking rich. No, I ain’t rich. It’s just 1 bucks. You’ve to experience Selangor yourselves to know the Opportunities you can get out of here. My pick? No exact, but hit me up at alvinkok_2@hotmail.com when you do get opportunities. I’ll be happy. HAHA CULTURE: In a diverse country like Malaysia, Selangor offers great cultural values and traditional differences which shows the uniqueness of Malaysia. We celebrate everything and anything. It may sound ugly and weird, but we really do. We are happy for each other. And that’s what it’s all about. Check out when I say we really do celebrate for one another: indian Notice the dots on our foreheads? We were celebrating Deepavali and I thought it was pretty fun and nice to do! All in all, Selangor covers all aspect of LIFE. It gives me pride to say that I am from Selangor. What more do you want in a country? or even in a State? It’s all in here. Again, this blog post is submitted as an entry to Tourism Selangor Writing Competition. I hope it helps you in making Selangor your next home or your best tourist destination. =)
