And Two More Things

Why are the road signs in Kuala Lumpur designed to make sense only to drivers who live there and actually know where they are going? We attempted twice to find a certain Hutan Lipur Ampang which is indicated on a series of those brown signs for places of interest right up to the centre of Ampang itself only to fail on both occasions. It simply isn't. There. Does this place, whatever it is, exist?

And why are there so many fully constructed houses which just remain empty in the city, as well as those which seem to have been abandoned halfway through construction? Halfway is enough to create something of remarkable ugliness, especially when it is allowed to rot for ten years or so. There's a whole row of what seem to have been intended to be terraced houses of this sort on one of the roads on Bukit Antarabangsa a short drive from where we live. Opposite are two or three rather expensive-looking large occupied houses. Nice view they have.
