By the way, did you hear? There's an International Busker's meet right here in KL. What irony eh. It just reminds me of the time when a dear singer songwriter was remanded for busking. Hmmm.... so I guess it's ok now. Or is it purely for the sake of Visit Malaysia Year. Some smart alec goes..... I know! Let's bring buskers from around the world to Malaysia! So would they consider offering our very own buskers an open mic or stage to perform and then clap and glorify them? Yes, those guys who are regulars at CM or Alor. But dudes, promise us you won't be remanding them later once the visitors have gone home. ;) www.malaysiabuskers.com
