Kuala Lumpur, 5 July 2008 — The Malaysian Mega Sale fever caused a festive and fun sort of pandemonium at five major shopping malls today all over Klang Valley. Organised by Shopping Malaysia Secretariat, this was the first time the Mega Sale was launched in a staggered session manner at various malls. An array of exciting activities, performances by bands, dancers and street walkers to thrill shoppers were lined up from 10 am till 10.30pm.

A unique shopping attraction, the hot air balloon ride is available for all Sunway Pyramid shoppers who spend RM200 or more.

We all know that the only way to cure a virus is being in good health. Further on we will "test" the "poor men’s theory" and see what happens with the swine flu patients in New Zealand, Spain and US.

 

Meanwhile it would be wise to stay away from airports and airplanes.

 

Human body heath detectors like in the airport of Thailand are useless when the person just contracted the virus and boarded the plane: he or she won’t show fever but will be spreading the swine flu.
