Wesak Day Parade (Kuala Lumpur - 31 May 2026)

Taken as the procession passes along Jalan Raja Chulan, with the old Menara Maybank and the new Maybank (Merdeka 118) visible in the background as some of the floats passes by.

𝙈𝙚𝙧𝙙𝙚𝙠𝙖 118 𝘼𝙡𝙞𝙜𝙣𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙈𝙪𝙧𝙖𝙡 (31st May 2026)

Yes I know it is kitsch but everyone does it... 😂
Located off Jalan Sultan in Lorong Petaling, this mural is basically one of the recent Instagrammable spots in KL. Either key in Merdeka 118 Alignment Mural or search for 五个雪人 Five Snowmen 茨厂街.

On the side of the ice cream shop you can see a yellow arrow on the ground, pointing to where you should stand and look to get the alignment.

Went to KLDEX (beside Matic). Quite an experience as the museum is definitely well thought off and lots of interactive stuff for visitors. The listing of all the registered varieties was enlightening. The F&B downstairs gives you a choice of snacks and drinks.

Street Portraits - Borneo Native Festival 2026 (22nd May 2026)

Candid shots of during the BNF 2026 event at Central Market. I don't usually do sepia portraits but I feel it brings out a certain je ne sais quoi charm to his image.
