Saya tak boleh... The eternal mystery of weird questions posed by tourists to me...

Its kinda funny for me when tourists start asking about what they can do or cannot do here... like a recent example, someone actually asked me if there were English movies in the cinemas, and if he could eat his ice cream while walking around...

I mean, you guys must think that we're like some undeveloped country with everyone speaking languages other than English, that explains the possible lack of English movies in the cinemas... since no one understands it???!!! No wonder our government wants to highlight to foreigners that our country is not part of China or Malaysia... apparently its necessary... to show that we're a civilised country with cosmopolitan influences... aka we can speak and understand English... we're not idiots you know...

Furthermore, not allowing someone to eat something when you're walking around is like... taking away your basic right to feed when you're hungry... can you even do that??? Then what about all the ice cream sellers on the streets??? Doesn't that make them illegal too??? And what about the mobile food vendors??? I mean, as long as you don't litter... it's fine... We're not such a FINE city afterall... you still have SOME freedom...

End of complaint...

it's a tourist that was sitting behind me & my colleague while we were trying to enjoy our peaceful lunch at Funan's Taco Bell...

it's not a joke... he looked dead serious... in fact so serious that I couldn't help but try to control e way my eyes almost popped out at the question... so of cos e good samaritan+info counter+ms tourism didn't kick his ass... his ass & many other foreign asses are what's keeping our economy high & mighty....
