"It is just an amazing journey: 1 MALAYSIA Round-The-World (RTW)"


Twenty-one-year-old Capt James Anthony Tan, born with dyslexia, is a Malaysian pilot who has managed to fly half-way around the world in a tiny, single-engine Cessna 210 Eagle aircraft, an achievement which is no mean feat, making him the first Malaysian and the youngest pilot to stamp his mark. Tan made a stop in Kolkata on Saturday (May 11, 2013), on his around the world trip from March 26 to May 15. He met with the media in Kolkata organized by Malaysia Tourism department where Acting High Commissioner of Malaysia in India, Razlan Abdul Rashid; Consul of Malaysia to Kolkata, Sanjay Budhia and Director, Tourism Malaysia, Amran Bin Abdul Rahman were present. Having clocked 36,400 km so far with 28 stops, Kolkata was the second stop in the country after Nagpur.
