Klang Valley



According to Wikipedia...

Klang Valley (Malay: Lembah Klang) is an area in Malaysia comprising Kuala Lumpur and its suburbs, and adjoining cities and towns in the state of Selangor. An alternative reference to this would be Kuala Lumpur Metropolitan Area or Greater Kuala Lumpur, though neither of these terms is used locally. It is geographically delineated by Titiwangsa Mountains to the north and east and the Strait of Malacca to the west. The conurbation has a total population of over 4 million as of 2004, and is the heartland of Malaysia's industry and commerce. In the most recent census, the population in the Klang Valley had expanded to 4.7 million, and in 2006, the population in this area is estimated to be 6.0 million. Klang Valley is home to a large number of migrants from other states within Malaysia and foreign workers largely from Indonesia, India and Nepal.

According to KLites, the Klang Valley is a place where
  1. People discuss their next meal while eating their current one
  2. It is no surprise then that you can get food 24/7.
  3. Flash floods happen.
  4. Motorcyclists don't stop at red lights
  5. Where everyone stops to see vehicle number plates when there is an accident.
  6. There are more MU and Liverpool fans than in Manchester and Liverpool cities.
