It's good to see KTM ranked high for something :) But, this is by Travel and Leisure magazine, and I'd imagine it's applies mostly for tourists visiting for short stays. Sure it may be the no#3 for visitors but what about for locals? I love my home town, don't get me wrong, but lets not kid ourselves, we might probably find ourselves somewhere at the very bottom if basic things like roads, public amenities, garbage disposal,zoning laws, urban sprawls, public hygiene etc are taken into consideration. I don't mean to throw cold water at this ranking and am happy to see it, but honestly, it's really window dressing. But, nonetheless,I do hope someday we will fare better on other more meaningful counts Just my thoughts.
