Kuala Lumpur City Portal

THIS PORTAL IS NOT AVAILABLE ANYMORE - AUGUST 2012

Kuala Lumpur now has a portal. Click HERE to go to the portal.

After visiting it I found it contain useful information not only abut the city but also has links to major newspapers in Malaysia besides various departments in the country.

There is also links to popular emails provider i.e. Yahoomail, MSN Hotmails and Gmails besides her own Kulmail (cool?). Kulmail provide 6.8 Gb of space.

If you register with the website you can personalise your start up page with calender and enjoy many other applications to add fun to your emailing activities.... its FREE..

KLites can setup this website as a default homepage after registering instead of the usual search engines of Yahoo, Google or MSN. Since its a local portal, it might serve KLites with more local flavour especially the latest top news and happenings in the country.

The portal also has a DVR player and you can listen to local radio while surfing.
