Our neighbor has a son who works in Malaysia. His son arrived yesterday and gave us a miniature model of the Petronas Twin tower, as some sort of souvenir. It's cute. Do you know other skyscrapers? Is Petronas still the highest skyscraper in the world?

Sadly, it's not anymore. Taiwan beat Petronas Twin Tower with their newly-built tower some time ago. I don't remember exactly when though.

For a long time the Sears Tower in Chicago was the tallest, but not anymore. I think that Petronas might be the tallest, but I am not sure. Another building is being built in Chicago to be taller than the Sears Tower, but I still don't think it is going to be the tallest.
