About Malaysia

Malaysia has fervently embraced modern technology -- it boasts two of the world's tallest skyscrapers and a huge cyber center for computer businesses.		The most recogniseable landmark of Shah Alam, the Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah mosque is one of the most beautiful buildings in the country. It is also known as "The Blue Mosque of the East" in reference to the Blue Mosque in Turkey.

The Batu Caves are situated thirteen kilometers (seven miles) north of the capital city Kuala Lumpur. They are the sacred place for the Hindu's in Malaysia.
