do you have any pics of kampung baru? i heard that once it was a paddy field (not really sure if its true or not). my dad grew up in that area, so it would be cool to know what it was like during that era. i love the fact how we have a kampung in the middle of the city. keep up the great work bud. :)

Kampung Baru pics are, surprisingly, hard to come by in the free internet. We suspect there are tons of pictures in private collections just waiting to be shared. So get the word out - Submit to Vintage KL tumblr. Thanks for writing in!
