Content is too lazy.
You need to be more pro-active in getting to know every activity categories you have stated. In general, this are the community that want a jungle with air-conditioning and ample car park. |

QUOTE(Calvin Seak @ Feb 29 2016, 01:37 PM) Theres good list, but i didn't list hiking as something lacking in Malaysia... it's under general sports. what i see is more people jogging & walking, except those that really is hiking where you need hiking boots & hiking poles, you know, walking on stones and often requires both hands & feet to get up. can you highlight those that is for real hiking not like TTDI ones?For beginners FRIM Kepong Bukit Gasing Bukit Saga Kota Damansara Community Forrest TTDI - But alot of mountain bikers so avoid it on weekends Sungai Chilling Bukit Tabur Bukit Broga For Advance hikers Gunung Nuang - Either through Pangsun or Janda baik(Easier) Gunung Datuk Bukit kutu Gunung Angsi Gunung telapak buruk And many more le but these are the few that I have tried and may have missed out.. I haven't hike in a very long2 time and I kinda miss it |

QUOTE(sotongbangang @ Feb 29 2016, 01:53 PM) yea but like i said, Golf is not lacking in Malaysia. anyway do they rent golf clubs out nowadays? coz still to get into that sports you'd need to invest in a set of clubs, general folks won't want to commit so much just to try.do you still need a license to golf in those 18 holes? i only play driving range coz i'm bad at golf. long time no play edi. most people go golfclub not to play golf but use their facilities. but in KL many Condo already have these facilities. |

QUOTE(advocado @ Feb 29 2016, 12:27 PM) Anyone think in Malaysia unless you work near special areas like Diving site o beach there's a lack of special activities? Dude. there IS cycling lane in KL.Most activities available during weekends usually Shopping, Cinema, Golf, Themeparks, Casino, General Sports, Food & Drink I think sums it up. These are generally General activities for the whole family, but not for you. Since Malaysia is hot weather country i'm not expecting snow boarding/skiing on Mt. Kinabalu, but still got many other things not involving snow. For example many countries like US/Aus/Japan has lots of race tracks for weekend drivers to fulfill their adrenaline needs, they just need to drive next town, here there's only Pasir Gudang & Sepang + some no name circuit where people rarely organize anything for public, so car clubs have to use public roads to organize events. If race tracks are too expensive, you rarely see any Go-Karts no more, there used to be some but seems either they charged too expensive or typical Malaysians just not interested but in many countries they are affordable you can even buy your own karts. If a Gokart circuit is still too expensive, can always ride dirt bikes in the Forests. Beaches, Malaysia full of beaches, yet there's only a handful of beaches that actually suits beach activities like Penang & Sabah/Sarawak, places like JB has a good beach location yet it's designed for Look Sea only and the closest beach Johoreans have is Sentosa beach. In US almost any states along the seaside will have a proper beach for outdoor activities, malaysia have to pay & go to Sunway Lagoon or Desa Water Park... Fishing, fishing ponds near non-existence now, used to be a cheap & peaceful way to pass time. now you have to drive to Kuala Selangor or somewhere remote, or be hardcore & rent a boat and go into the swamp areas, still possible but need to be hardcore enthusiasts. Cycling, a very common sports, but cycle lane is no where to be seen here. There's no place dedicated for cyclists like Singapore has. Even Langkawi which hosts Tour de Langkawi don't really have much cycling activity when there's no Tour de Langkawi. Then we don't need to talk about other more expensive stuffs like yatching, horse riding, water jet packing, you may be able to find them in Penang & tourist hotspots which is 500km away.. these just few examples. even though some exists, they don't last long due to lack of support from locals, lack of tourism in major parts of Malaysia, and expensive price that people rather do the same thing over & over like shopping. but not bored meh? weekend even you have car also don't know where to drive to, drive all the way to Genting/Kuala Selangor also just to eat/gamble, drive to Seremban nothing to do, down to Melaka also eat only since most tourist place you usually go 1 or 2 times at most, even up to Penang, just Gurney Drive & eat & go to temple. even temple malaysia only got so many to visit. they should really make unique Mosques so it can become a tourist attraction like how people keep visiting temples after temples in China & Japan. I think Putrajaya actually has lots of potential to become the weekend escape for KL people. It has the land, road & facilities to support, well until one day Putrajaya becomes overcrowded. Even if there's already one, most people probably never heard about it just like other White elephants. But I'm guessing Malaysians so used to the hot weather they couldn't be bothered doing outdoor activities. But why is Sinkie different? The problem is when something new comes up, they always ask for skyhigh price, it becomes not-so affordable and less people go, they lose money, close shop and people call it a day for that type of activity because they see how previous business tried & failed. i can cycle everywhere from my house, to PNB,to berjaya times square, to Lowyat, to Midvalley, to pavi, to KLCC, everywhere notice how pedestrian roads in KL all now has the divider lanes on it? thats because our pedestrian roads are split for bicycling+pedestrian altho the "bicycle-pedestrian" blue sign boards are only at merdeka padang, EPF, cimb tower, up until maju junction, and psar mydin, its actually designed to extend until Melawati eventually yes. the entire KL is a huge cycling city |
