KL Olympic Torch Relay

It’s the Olympic Torch Relay happened here in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia..

It’s only the second time the torch reach our shore, where the first time was in 1964 when the Olympic Games was held in Tokyo, Japan..Correct me the year if I’m wrong..

It just happened that I passed by Bukit Bintang, wanted to hang around Sungei Wang on Monday with Hikaru..

Then we came across whole bunch of people crowded the Golden Triangle..

Only I remembered it was the Olympic Torch Relay thingy, coming from Dataran Merdeka, to Bukit Bintang, then up to KL Tower and down, then stop at KLCC..

If I’m not mistaken, it’s in that particular order..

*The Samsung Roadshow*

*Lots of huge balloons*

Other than those HUGE balloons, they were giving out Samsung-mini flags and Balloon Stix..

*The Samsung Olympic Beijing 2008 mini flag*

*The Balloon Stix*

There were many many times we were conned that the runner has arrived, but it turned out to be some other people parading the street..

No don’t worry..It’s not another stupid Tibet protester or something..It’s a planned street parade by the organisers..

*Some cyclists arrived at the entrance of Sungei Wang*

*All people waiting eagerly*

Well, I’ve been trying and trying and trying to upload the video of the street parade and the torch bearer on Youtube..

But it failed many times..Seems like Youtube has banned anything with Olympic content..A movement to support Tibet in the name of justice and fair? Bullshit I would say..

Americans and lots of Westerners are total bullshit in the course of protesting the Olympic Games when it’s nearing..

They don’t know anything bout Tibet and China and yet they sabotaged the internal relationship of both countries..

As we always know, Westerners are always the one that stirred things up, instead of promoting peace or whatsoever..

The more war a country got involved, the more they benefited from it..That’s total globalisation..

So instead, I’ve printscreen some of the scenes from my video..

*Policemen blocking the people from getting in the way of the relay*

*Marina Mahathir carrying the Olympic Torch*

*The securities that followed her and the parade*

*Real Chinese from China giving their support*

*It was crowded as you can see*

*Some China chicks..LOL*

*Chinese roam the street giving their support*

*Me trying to say something but snapped on pic*

Not long after that, it was raining elephants and hippopotamuses..With lions and tigers roaring in the sky..

And we headed home as well..

Consider fortunate to bumped onto such historic event, no?
