Security alert for Kuala Lumpur, Australian government warns

"Terrorists may be planning attacks in and around Kuala Lumpur. Attacks could be indiscriminate and may target Western interests or locations frequented by Westerners," read a travel advisory post on the Australian government website.

It also recommended that Australians avoid travel to the coastal region of eastern Sabah, where the beaches and islands are popular with foreign tourists and diving enthusiasts
 
Thanks for the warning!

Still, I think the risk is higher to get mugged by machete-carrying youths on motorbikes or robbed at your house, both of which have happened to a few people I know :eek:
 
I guess Islamic terrorists typically will not target vegan restaurants as their first choice ;).....

(and beer is much too expensive here to drink it in a bar, thanks to a so-called "sin tax")
