| Langkawi |
After the curse of mahsuri,Langkawi were not popular and not known by other,due the curst of Mahsuri that state “For this act of injustice Langkawi shall not prosper for seven generations to come”. For seven generations crops failed and tourism wasn’t so hot.
Then the Malaysian prime minister of the time Dr Mahatir Mohamed put in an international airport and created a flourishing tourism community. The descendent of Mahsuri, Wan Aishah, also came back to visit Langkawi in 2000 and Langkawi is well and truly back on track, although the poor girl couldn’t quite understand what all the fuss was about, as crowds followed her and press furiously snapped pictures, Vip’s and radio hosts appearing in droves. You can visit Mahsuri’s mausoleum in the center of Langkawi and also the field of burnt rice where they tried to starve the Thai army by torching the crops.
