The Royal Selangor Club (Malay: Kelab Di-Raja Selangor) is a social club in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, founded in 1884 by the British who ruled Malaya.
While the club is more than 100 years old, much of its early records were lost during the three-year Japanese occupation of Malaya from 1942 to 1945, and the 1970 fire that damaged the club (see #Flooding and fire).
The club was founded as the Selangor Club in 1884 as a meeting point for educated and high-ranking members of British colonial society. Nevertheless, membership to the club is primarily determined by high educational and social standards, rather than race or citizenship. The organisation was initially based in a small wooden building with an attap roof at near the north eastern corner of the padang, which was replaced by a two-storey structure in 1890 on the west side of the padang, the present site of the club, and designed by AC Norman, a Government Architect. The building was later redesigned by architect Arthur Benison Hubback (who was notably credited for the design of the Kuala Lumpur Railway Station) and rebuilt in 1910, with two additional wings on either side of the main building and a Mock Tudor styling.
The club was nicknamed "The Spotted Dog" as two Dalmatians belonging to the wife of one of the club founders were left to guard the entrance of the club whenever they visited the club. The club is also simply referred to as "The Dog".
Over the years, the club's membership increased and had also begun to include high-ranking Malaysian civil servants: judges, lawyers and important people in society. The club's proximity to the old High Courts at the other side of Dataran Merdeka has also made the club a suitable meeting place for the legal fraternity.(Wikipedia)
This small jumping spider are seems similar to Ligurra latidens (maybe this jumper is juvenile version of Ligurra latidens). I found this jumper on Pineapple tree leaf, outside my in-laws house . It measures about 3mm.

Damselflies (suborder Zygoptera) are insects in the order Odonata. Damselflies are similar to dragonflies, but the adults can be distinguished by the fact that the wings of most damselflies are held along, and parallel to, the body when at rest. Furthermore, the hindwing of the damselfly is essentially similar to the forewing, while the hindwing of the dragonfly broadens near the base. Damselflies are also usually smaller than dragonflies and weaker fliers in comparison, and their eyes are separated.

Structurally, Cyclosa spiders can be easily recognised by the characteristic U-shaped demarcation between the raised "head" (the cephalic part of the cephalothorax) and the flat thoracic region. The egg-sac is yellowish brown and woolly in appearance.
Spiders of the genus Cyclosa decorate their vertical orb-webs with a band of rubbish made of remains of insects bound in silk. web showing debrisThe spider sits in the hub and appears to be a part of the debris, thereby camouflaging itself. The vertical orb-web is decorated by a vertical band of debris through the centre.

The Phasmatodea (also known as Phasmida or Phasmatoptera) are an order of insects, whose members are variously known as stick insects (in Europe and Australasia), stick-bugs or walking sticks (in the United States and Canada), phasmids, ghost insects and leaf insects (generally the family Phylliidae). The group's name is derived from the Ancient Greek φάσμα phasma, meaning an apparition or phantom, referring to the resemblance of many species to sticks or leaves. Their natural camouflage makes them difficult for predators to detect, but many species have a secondary line of defence in the form of startle displays, spines or toxic secretions. The genus Phobaeticus includes the world's longest insects.

Title: Innocence
I am Grateful my car is unwashed Not damaged beyond repair
I am Grateful I wake up for work Not to a horizon of uncertainty
I am Grateful the children I meet’s eyes twinkle with laughter, joy and innocence Not despair, lost and torment
I am Grateful I have bills to pay Not death certs to collect
I am Grateful my handphone connects me to loved ones Not a blank tone of death
I am Grateful I can choose to cook, buy or eat what I want Not wonder will I have food for the next meal
I am Grateful I have a choice to watch TV Not devastation unfolding in front of me
I am Grateful of arguments with loved ones Not wondering if they are still alive
I am Grateful I can smell roses Not the stench of death
I am Grateful water means fun, cool, quench of thirst, peace, soothing Not fear, death, fury and loss of lives
I am Grateful the beach reminds of frolic, play, kisses, sunsets Not bodies, wreckage, ruined livelihoods
I am Grateful the lines I wait in are for pleasure Not for aid
I am Grateful the words I write speak my mind Not of my lost of life and cherished ones
I am Grateful the bed I sleep is mine Not mat covered ground
I am Grateful I have a roof over me Not a tent of temporal shelter
I am Grateful my tears are from sight Not of personal lost
I am Grateful the clothes on my person remain mine Not lost to the sea
I am Grateful my minutes were in traffic Not minutes that ravaged the earth
I am Grateful I hit my toe on the furniture Not injured running for life
I am Grateful

I found this female jumper in nearby recreational forest. The males and females can be distinguished from other Telamonia by the saw-like outline of the median white stripe running longitudinally on the dorsal side of the abdomen. This female jumper measures about 8mm and also known as Jolly Telamonia.

Batu Caves is a limestone hill to the north of Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia which has a series of caves and cave temples. It takes its name from the Sungai Batu or Batu River, which flows past the hill.
The 'Orang Asli' (local aboriginal tribes called Jakun) had been aware of the caves for a long time. However, they became famous only after it was discovered by the American Naturalist, William Hornaday in 1878.
Of the various cave temples that comprise the site, the largest and best known is the Temple or Cathedral Cave, so named because it houses several Hindu shrines beneath its 100 m vaulted ceiling.
These serve as the focus of the Hindu community's yearly Thaipusam festival. The site is well known for its numerous macaque monkeys, which visitors feed, sometimes involuntarily. There are 272 steps that a visitor has to climb in order to access the temple at the summit of the hill. Many of the shrines relate the story of Lord Murugan's victory over Soorapadam. An audio tour is available to visitors.
At the base of the hill are two more cave temples, Art Gallery Cave and Museum Cave, both of which are full of Hindu statues and paintings.
