En Route to Work

The MindValley office is in a town outside of KL called Cheras, which is about 40-45 minutes away from Bangsar by train. Cheong and I take 2 trains to get there.

So first we walk about 5-7 minutes to the Bangsar train station, take the LRT (Light Rail Transit) into town 3 stops to Masjid Jamek. Then transfer to the STAR train and travel back out of town eastward 7 stops to Pandan Jaya. It's about a 5 minute walk from the exit of the train station in Pandan Jaya.

Here are some pictures of my daily sights on my way to work.

A hazy morning



Covered Malays in front of me as I go up the escalator in Masjid Jamek



A shot of the same escalator but from the ground floor.
It's always this crowded and busy in the morning.



Waiting for the STAR train in Masjid Jamek station


Below are more shots of the area surrounding Masjid Jamek











At last, I get off the STAR train in Pandan Jaya. Ahhhhh smell the fresh air! As if it's an ocean breeeeeeze. NOT!!

Take a closer look at the picuture below! The smell when you get off the station is so pungent, I usually have to cover my nose.
