Magnificent....skyscraper

I have been follow up the development and technology of buildings around the globe for some time but I like skyscraper the most. I think that skyscraper can change the world. They are build to show off the wealth and ability of a country. For example, Petronas Twin Towers in Malaysia had become a identity for the nation and now, it still going on. Recently, the race to become to build the tallest building in the world has heat up. Too bad, due to the current economic crisis, a lot of projects have put on hold. The country feel the most is Dubai in UAE. They have a lot of projects that Hopefully, the condition will recover and let the development continue.

I would like to share some of the skyscrapers around the world that amaze me including skyscraper in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. One of the most awaited project that will be completed at the end of the year to overtake current world's tallest, Taipei 101 to become world's tallest is Burj Dubai in Dubai, UAE. Even though this building is not complete yet but it already broken many records and now is unofficially the tallest building in the world. Other skyscraper projects include Freedom Tower; the replacement for World Trade Centre in New York and just completed Shanghai Financial Tower in China.

They are few rumours claims that they will be the building taller than one kirometre. I think that the building taller like this is insane to build and it challenge the ability of man kind to reach that level.

Although Malaysia has the world famous Petronas Twin Towers, I think it's not enough especially for the glowing country. However, when we though that KL will not have another iconic building, they are rumours said that the building taller than Twin Tower will be built and is more than 100 storeys high. If this is true, it will chance the skyline of KL. I looking forward to some interesting projects in KL including Four Seasons Center, Lot C, The Capers, Platinum Park and Millennium Residence.
