..right...and rightly so..one has to be proud of one's birthplace..but where really is your downtown..?..everyone has a downtown in their life, lady..somewhere or someone..where they can seek solace..refuge...'where u can forget yr troubles..forget all cares..' ..when this oldster was a angst-driven youth there, downtown was Bukit Bintang Park..and Rose Chan had her striptease shows to a gasping crowd..nothing by todays standard..but to me, that was my downtown..the park, with its brazen neon lights..the crowd..so, where/wht/who is yours..? :)
