NEW STRAITS TIMES SUNDAY HEADLINE At a time when many cities around the world are concerned about falling Tourist numbers, Putrajaya City in Malaysia has reported a record 2.6 million in 2008 according to Sunday last’s New Straits Times.

TWO SLALOM GREATS Parrish and LaPoint - Two Slalom Towers Chris Parrish USA has to be happy with his 2008 Slalom season. Not only has he kept his World Slalom Record intact for another year, but he also had a first class World Cup season. Our hope for 2009 is that Chris will be able to attend all the World Cup Slalom Stops as his missing the Dubna Russia World Cup Stop this year may well have prevented him from taking the World Cup season title. However, don’t underestimate the ability of Jodi Fisher GBR to make it FOUR season World Cup titles in succession. <p>&nbsp;</p> Watch out for the new WORLD CUP 2009 calendar due out shortly – and all the signs are that it will be yet another great World Cup Slalom season. Interestingly, the most watched World Cup Video...
