The view of Pangkor Laut Resort from the Hill Villas.
This place is half-way to heaven, I said to my travelling companions, and they agreed. Imagine my delight when I found out that heaven was within reach!
Yes, a god, a football god, deigned to appear before us mere mortals who happened to be at YTL’s Pangkor Laut Resort one recent weekend. Eric Cantona, the former Manchester United player (and eternal legend), appeared from the heavens in a helicopter and was transported to his earthly abode, the Pavarotti Suite. How appropriate, since the late tenor after which this suite was named did pronounce this resort in Perak a paradise.
