A record-breaking 1.3 million
devotees and visitors were expected to pack Batu Caves
for the Thaipusam celebration today. *smile* The figure is an increase
from the one million people that attended the celebration last year, but most
importantly for many, this celebration also marks a public holiday for
Malaysians working in Selangor, Penang, Perak, Negeri Sembilan, Johor and
now, the federal Territories of Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya.
