Symbolizing the "Look East" policy for Malaysia, The Dayabumi Building was finished in a mere 26 months.In 1981, the newly-installed Mahathir government of Malaysia implemented its "Look East" policy to convey its desire to learn from Japan and Korea and join the ranks of the advanced countries of Asia. One of the most notable legacies of this policy was the Dayabumi Urban Development Project.
The jewel of this plan was the Dayabumi Building, which was constructed during Stage III. The original plan had called for reinforced concrete and a construction period of 44 months. It would have been nearly impossible to complete the task in only half that time! Therefore, Takenaka proposed a steel-frame structure, which would allow the edifice to be finished in 26 months.
This concludes my Flag Ponds series.

‘For your tomorrow
We gave our today’.”

The northernmost of Thailand ends with a road and a bridge over to Myanmar (Mae Sai border checkpoint).
I’ve been to two land border crossings and both times they aren’t as flashy or comfortable as an airport, but with a lot less hassle.

Tomorrow we'll celebrate the last Queensday ever! Our Queen Beatrix is handing over the royal responsibilities to her son Willem-Alexander and the lovely Maxima, that means that from next year on we'll celebrate Kingsday, and I'm pretty sure we'll get just as drunk and have as much orange fun as we've had on QD each year, lol :D
