THE GROUND BREAKING CEREMONY FOR KLIA TOOK PLACE ON 1 JUNE 1993. IT WAS CREATED AS PART OF THE MULTIMEDIA SUPER CORRIDOR. A GRAND DEVELOPMENT PLAN FOR THE NATION.

THE JOURNEY IS WAITING FOR YOU...

THE AIRPORT IS A GATEWAY, AN INTERMEDIARY STOP BEFORE ARRIVING SOME PLACE YOU REALLY WANT TO GO. AIRPORTS ARE FILLED WITH EMOTION, EXCITEMENT AND OFTENTIMES, BOREDOM; PASSENGERS SEE THE AIRPORT AS A MEANS TO THE FINAL DESTINATION. THESE COMBINED EMOTIONS CERTAINLY MAKE FOR VERY ENJOYABLE PEOPLE WATCHING.

HIGH -VIS TRAVELER

THEY AREN'T PRECIOUS ABOUT THEIR COFFEE, THEY DON'T EITHER HAVE A BLACK CARRY-ON SUITCASE OR HIGH HEELS. THESE GUYS FOCUS ON WHAT THEY ARE DOING. EXAMPLES LIKE FOCUS ON FACEBOOK-ING

THE JOURNEY BEGINS...

"A JOURNEY OF A THOUSAND MILES BEGINS WITH A SINGLE STEP."-LAO TZU

WHAT THE TRAVELERS BRING SOMETIMES IS MORE THAN JUST BAGGAGE FILLED WITH CLOTHES, PERFUMES, BOOKS AND TOILETRIES.

DEPARTURE

AIRPORT IS A PLACE WHERE PEOPLE CAN EXPRESS THE FEELINGS THEY GET .THE TRUTH IS THAT AIRPORT SEE MORE SINCERE KISSES AND HUGGING THAN WEDDING HALLS.

THOSE WHO ARE LEAVING HAVE TO SEPARATE THEMSELVES FROM THE PEOPLE AND PLACE THEY LOVE IN ORDER TO FLY THOUSAND OF MILES AND WRITE ANOTHER CHAPTER OF THEIR LIFE.

LOOKING AT THE PEOPLE AT THE BOARDING GATE, YOU MIGHT WONDER WHAT OTHERS CHAPTERS ARE BEING WRITTEN.

THE AIRPORT PROVIDES THE MOST INTERESTING OF BACKDROPS FOR SOMEONE WHO ENJOYS IMAGINING OTHER PEOPLE’STORIES.

THERE IS AN AMUSING SIMPLICITY IN SITTING AND WATCHING TRAVELERS STROLL BY, GUESSING WHAT THEIR BACKGROUNDS ARE, WHAT THEIR HOMES LOOK LIKE, AND WHAT THEY MIGHT BE FEELING AS BOARDING TIME APPROACHES. THE OLD LADY MIGHT BE WAITING FOR HER SON FROM RETURNING HOME FOR HOLIDAY.

THE LITTLE KID MIGHT BE ANXIOUS WAITING FOR THE ARRIVAL OF HIS FATHER FROM WORKING OVERSEAS.

ARRIVAL

AIRPORT IS WHERE EITHER PEOPLE SAY GOODBYE OR WELCOMING BACK SOMEONE. IT ALWAYS FASCINATE ME BY GUIDING MY EMOTION THROUGH ALL WALKS OF LIFE.

THE AIRPORT BRINGS ALL KINDS OF PEOPLE TOGETHER, REMINDING THOSE WHO ARE TRAVELING, THAT THEY ARE NOT ALONE. THE EMOTIONS ARE FELT BY EVERYONE

THE STAFF ARE PUSHING THE TROLLEY WHICH LEFT BY THOSE WHO DEPART THE AIRPORT. THEY WILL BLOW WHISTLE WHEN THERE IS PEOPLE THAT BLOCK THE PATH

AIRPORT STAFF CAME DOWN FROM STAIRS AFTER WORKING.

THE JOURNEY NEVER ENDS...

AT THE AIRPORT, WE SEEM TO GIVE OURSELVES PERMISSION TO REFLECT ON OUR PAST AND WONDER OUR FUTURE. EVERY AIRPORT ARE SPECIAL, IT HAS ITS OWN ROLE WHICH ACT AS A CROSSROADS FOR ALL OF US.
