Is Kuala Lumpur ‘tame’ compared to Hanoi and Bangkok?
Well, it is according to Budget Backpackers Matt and Emily, who are stuck there for nine days as the execution of the Bail bombers has prevented them from following their original round the world itinerary. This is a potentially controversial judgement, as Kuala Lumpur is in fact ‘the fastest growing metropolitan area’ in Malaysia (thanks, Sir Wiki) and the travellers do admit that it’s ‘a 24 hour city’ with ‘loads of great food’ and hot designer labels - if you’re into that kind of thing, which they aren’t. In truth, they can’t wait to get to the Philippines for a spot of volcano climbing instead.
Are there any KL fans out there who know of places and experiences in the city that might change their minds? Go over and argue your case.

Yep. KL is a nice city, but not really that exciting compared to other cities in SE Asia. That is not really a bad thing, however.
