Yes, it's the festive season again. With Christmas and New Year around the corner, it's bargains galore everywhere. People are flocking to the shopping malls to enjoy the festive atmosphere and purchase gifts for family and friends. Restaurants and hotels are also offering Christmas and New Year menus featuring both traditional and modern dishes.
Children will discover a world of fantasy at the Mid Valley Megamall which features the Toyland theme.
Here I am in front of a newly renovated shopping mall in Kuala Lumpur which has a unique Xmas tree made up of CDs. Very innovative!
But what really makes this mall so popular is its latest tenant - Uni Qlo all the way from Japan.
Looks like any typical Uni Qlo shop in Japan - well stocked with the latest range of fashion clothes at prices which are certainly reasonable compared to the European brands. That's why the shop was jam packed on its opening week.
However I'm wondering why anyone will be interested to wear winter clothing in tropical Malaysia. Almost all the clothes sold are for cold weather. I can only guess many people are traveling further up north for their holidays.
Since everyone seems to be putting their Xmas wish-list on cyberspace, I'll include mine too. Any kind benefactors out there?
Christmas is a time of homecoming, of caring and sharing with family and loved ones. Have a blessed Christmas and a happy New Year!
