		<title>Paradise Sandy Beach Hotel, Penang</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Spacious room, private balcony, direct access to the beach is the main compelling feature of this hotel.

The newspaper seems to be useless, since the green courtyard under the clear blue sky of Jogja is more appealing than political issues in the newspaper. Especially if you&#8217;re on vacation.
