I think the best Toy Story movie so far! i'm not a fan of toy story 1 or even 2 when i was a teen. i felt that this movie kinda scary because toys alive? eee creepy~ but now when i watch back the TOY STORY 1 & 2 (3D) it began to interest me and i enjoyed it. So when PART 3 came out, i really wanted to watch it. and luckily i did because it is so funny and i like the animation, the graphics everything... you gotta watch it !
KUALA LUMPUR: When the clock strikes 10pm tonight, the 394m stretch of Pudu Jail wall fronting Jalan Pudu will be demolished after having served its purpose for the past 100 years.
Construction on the 4.5 metre wall, also known as Pudu Goal, started in 1891 in Jalan Hang Tuah, and it was fully completed in 1895 at a cost of RM15,360.
The wall, which once set a record for the longest mural in the world (384m), now carries no meaning in the bustling hub of development at Bukit Bintang Golden Triangle.
The prison itself stopped operating in 1996 and its inmates were shifted to the Sungai Buloh Prison, located 36km from here, after the building could no longer cater to the high volume of up to 6,550 people at a time since 1985.
The memories linked to the historic landmark will remain part of the country's history even after the wall is torn down in a move proposed by Kuala Lumpur Mayor Datuk Seri Ahmad Fuad Ismail.
The move is part of an effort to ease traffic congestion in the area through a road-widening project, including the construction of an underpass.
A check yesterday showed soil levelling works on the prison premises completed and awaiting today's wall demolition, a plan which drew flak from those who cherish the building's heritage.
Prabu Munusamy, 32, expressed his disappointment, saying the prison complex could be a valuable tourist attraction.
He said although the building had housed criminals, it should be preserved for its own unique values.
"This prison has even held several prominent convicts and until today, the public still come by to see and take photos there."
Chew Chong Huai, 52, said he was saddened to know that the historic structure, which should be made a heritage site, would be torn down.
"In other countries, such as China for example, historical landmarks would be kept and preserved as tourist attractions."
Irwan Hashim, 32, also disagreed with the move to demolish the complex and wall, saying the city was already congested with development.
"Enough with these developments. Kuala Lumpur is already packed with buildings and shopping complexes. Let us not destroy what is left of our heritage."
A tourist from the Philippines, 49-year-old Farancisco B. Lopez said Pudu Jail should be preserved for tourism purposes, such as the Alcatraz prison in California, United States.
"It's a waste and pointless. I was told this building is one of the historical sites in Malaysia as it was built in the 1800s." -- Bernama
MY SAY!
I felt that is kinda waste for such a meaningful trademark that symbolizes KL actually. Not to say that KL represents convict but the Pudu jail has been the landmark in KL since like 100 years!!! thatz a long and should be considered historic year!
I'm sure everyone knows where is PUDU jail. Whenever we wanna meet up or go somewhere in Kl, asking direction...often we mentioned Pudu Jail, eventually we know where it is.
It will be so empty now when i go to Sungei Wang. without seeing those great walls and the eerie-ness of it when i passed, it just different now.
HOwever, knowing that they demolished it for the purpose of shopping mall? such a ridiculous and stupid thing to do...aren't we enough shopping mall already???? can they just use the land for good purpose for God sake!
Times Square shopping mall is already failed enough, and now building another 1 next to it, it doesnt make it better.
I hope that Government spend time on increasing and improving the economy of the country in the long term rather than running a short term profit project like building shopping mall!!
IT's not easy to have a 100 year old building. we dont see it anywhere so often. At least sometimes we can see 100 years old trees..but building...it just rare!
