[518] Of the largest courthouse in the world
And yes, it will be in Malaysia! (via)
KUALA LUMPUR: The new Kuala Lumpur court complex, scheduled for completion in February next year, will be the biggest in the world, with 77 courtrooms.

The RM290mil complex will house the magistrate’s courts (26 courtrooms), Sessions Courts (21 courtrooms) and the High Court, including the Family Court (30 courtrooms)...

(Cough) I'd suggest Malaysia strengthens the separation between the executive, the judiciary and the Parliament before we start building the world's largest parliament house. As in right now, the Parliament is under Jabatan Perdana Menteri (that's the Prime Minister Department for those that are mentally challenged in Malay), which technically, as I understand it, means that the Parliament is under the power of the executive branch of the government.

I'd suppose next year, the Sultan Abdul Samad Building is nothing but history.

p/s - Danny Blind is the new Ajax coach. Ajax for Ajax!

Funny mix of parthenon like and oriental arhitecture, I expected something ultra modern in style of Kuala Lumpur twin towers.
