Ya people changed, street name changed.  Jln Tun H S Lee used to be High Street, then Jln Bandar, then HS Lee.  These pictures witness history.  They are good to look at.

I'm amazed that where did you get the picture from?

Gladly we still keep the outlook of the pre-war building and I hope government can fund more to keep those historic buildings not only in KL but also buildings in other states.

I think the correct title of this should be British troops cleaning up after Japanese mopping of the area.

Because of different personal background, I don't have any feeling about the war action. (Sound likes I am cold blooded.) It is nice to see the before and now pictures. I love to see how the world is changing. The pictures are showing the best view ,the history did not disappeared.

對比戰爭與和平的2個畫面;分別當然大;

但是另一方面;有點離題話;
感覺上馬來西亞的法律和現在西方主流的觀念,似乎保守得過分;
不知樓主認同嗎?

馬來西亞的法律是base on 回教的吧？

Its nice to see historic buildings well preserved, and still so functional.  Have these buildings been list as national heritage buildings yet?
Yes, wars are cruel.  Yet, we never learnt.
As for religion, laws and politics, they are entirely the choices that belong to the people who live in that country.  I always respect the local customs and law wherever I go visiting.
