Maybe KL doesn't really like to be in the dark?

My husband and I, along with our friends decided to go to The Lookout Point to watch the lights being turned off in KL in lieu of the Earth Hour (not before making sure all the lights at home are already switched off and reminding our families to switch theirs off at 8.30pm).

Obviously, we weren't the only people who had the idea. The place was so full that we figured we couldn't even reach up to the actual point and stopped halfway there since the view from that spot was nice too. Cars were aligned along the hill and people had already gathered at the good spots by the time we got there.

Anyway, suffice to say, the whole thing was disappointing. Very few people participated. The KLCC and KL Tower Buildings, of course, did their parts, as did some of the other office buildings around them but that was about it. Most others were either too ignorant or didn't care about the earth enough to do this one little thing.

It's sad that they wouldn't even shut off their lights for one measly hour in support of something so global, but I guess that's just the way it is.
