It is a rainy day in central Kuala Lumpur, but as is often the case, the gentle thrumming of raindrops soon begins to stop. Although the sky is overcast, the sun is visible in the distance, a glowing amber orb that melts into the horizon.
From where I sit at Cielo, a rooftop restaurant perched on the 23rd floor of Vida Bukit Ceylon, the views are nothing short of breathtaking. The Petronas Twin Towers are a clear feature, and as night descends, the city lights begin coming alive, twinkling and sparkling everywhere the eyes alight. Overhead, the retractable roof has been displaced, allowing an untrammelled view of the inky black sky, dappled with stars.
