Malaysia Hall, Northbridge..



Reflections of Malaysia Hall on Newcastle St. in Northbridge.This is the third Malaysia Hall in Australia, with a similar facility in Sydney and Melbourne.. focusing on the welfare of the many Malaysian students beginning their studies in Australia. It's an attractive building but as hard as I tried I couldn't find any information about when it was built, it looks old but how old I failed to discover :) Heading down to Cottesloe over the weekend to see Sculpture by the Sea, get ready for some weird and wonderful creations!  What are you up to this weekend? Enjoy, take care and stay safe..

  3. From the style, it does look like it's been around a few decades, at least, but it's in great shape.

  6. You framed the beautiful building very well!! Week-end? Friday (tonight)-dinner at friends, Saturday and Sunday are open. Perhaps a light movie. Sunday: Church (Makes me sound religious, but I'm not, just like community). Family here for dinner at 3 pm. That's enough; don't want to venture out into the cold. Secret: I'm now home from Mazatlán but I'm still posting photos from there for a few more days. Don't tell CDP!!

  11. A fascinating building design. I wonder if it was once some government building. It looks impressive enough to have been one. And this weekend I am heading to watch the annual Kite Festival at Rosebud beach. Always a colourful event.

  16. It's a beauty, Grace. I like your pic of it! I'm hoping to relax this weekend - we have more snow for Saturday but they are promising above 0˚C for the 6 days after that so I'm hoping to get out and about for some pics. Looking forward to your sculpture pics.

  17. I think this was required from the advent of the Colombo Plan when many students from Malaysia studied in Australia, especially in Perth. When my ex- was at UWA, he had a very, good friend who was a Malaysian student under this plan.

  18. That is a wonderful red reflection. Couldn't tell it was a reflection until I noticed the signs were backward. Nicely done.

  21. That is quite a building, and I love the fiery red color! I await the results of your trip. My own weekend is kind of quiet and rain is forecast. I will wake up and read the newspaper and see if any of the weekend events seem interesting enough for my camera and me.

  32. This is an outstanding venue, with great and thoughtful staff, and a fantastic chef. The party venues in Houston are well situated. We has been delighted to host our annual event at this location for the past few years, and the space has been perfect for our group of roughly 300.
