Was away for a short break after working 7 days a week continuously for 5 weeks.... overslept in the morning and missed the 8am coach, then have to re-purchase the 9am for s$40... left singapore via Konsortium Snoozer Coach on 30-Oct 2009.
The coach only 4 person, and only a German & I alighted at Puduraya, and about 8-10 paxs boarded and seemingly the coach is proceeding to Penang.
The German apparently is 1st time in KL and was asking me directions to Jalan Alor, i then offered him a lift.... and we chatted... and he told me he was a ex-German national player/coach and shown me a picture he took with Pele (its really him & Pele, quite sure that it is not Photoshop).. and he is probably in his 70s.....
checked-in Berjaya Times Square on the 27th Floor Junior Suite, and wasn't too impressed with their services over the 3 days stay. i guess only the bell boy did a good job, but introducing the facilities in the hotel while taking a long walk from the hotel lobby to the 27th Floor East Wing Junior Suite.
given RM5 tips, and i start to explore the suite. and pretty annoyed when i discovered that that is no internet connectivity inside the suite... and was asked to rent a 3G USB Modem for RM50 for 24hours use... then the only complimentary would be at the Broadway Lounge at Level 14.
Next, Headed to the shopping mall to get a headset+mic for my 4.30pm last minute teleconference.... at sony shop, paid RM80 for a one-sided earpiece with mic...
Lunch and level 10 food court, was damn quiet..... pay RM6 for a claypot e-mee.
at the Broadway Lounge, the staffs simply ignored me (maybe the way i'm dressed, in a pair of levis and polo t-shirt with messy hair and unshaved for 2 days)........ then was told that i at least need to buy 1 drink before they can provide internet connection... so bloody mad as i was rushing for a 4.30pm teleconference with singapore & shanghai office...
yeah, got online and was given a 1hr voucher to surf internet.... surprisingly the speed is good... and i guess i'm getting like 10Mbps kind of broadband..
