The Spirit of Asia ~ Malaysia I

Tun Dr Mahathir's Vision

敦马的远见


Malaysia does not have ancient and glorious civilization in the past; also there is no historical monument. Today able to attract the eyes of visitors from around the world, I believe only the former Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir's time, established the Kuala Lumpur twin towers. Once upon a time, it called the world's tallest building. But no longer and was soon to catch up with Taiwan and Dubai! The reporter asked the eighty-year-old Tun Dr Mahathir's comments, he lightly said: It does not matter, others only one and we have two. . . Hehe, metaphor in the Chinese language is really old ginger is spicy (meanings older and wiser). Bright ideas!

马来西亚没有文明古国的辉煌过去,更不用说什么历史古迹。今天能够吸引到来自全世界各地游客的目光,相信也只有前首相马哈迪时代建立起的吉隆坡KLCC双锋塔了。曾几何时,它还号称世界最高的建筑物。但是没多久好景不再,很快就被台湾和杜拜赶上!记者再问这位已经八十岁高龄的敦马意见,他谈然地说:没关系,人家是一栋,而我们却有两座。。。嘿嘿~ 果然姜是老的辣,高见!
