Last Friday after dinner we decided to head to GIANT to get cats food, on our way there we saw this white man pushing the airport trolley on the road. Then I told D hey check out that guy, where dose he think he is going with the airport trolley. As many of you know we stay near the airport and D works there, so D called some people up and in the end we had to solve the case.
So we drove up a head and waited for him at the SOFITEL HOTEL, when he reached it became something big and all the people knew about him pushing the trolley. It was such a chaos as no one is allowed to push the trolley out of the airport. When he finally reached D explain to him that he is not supposed to take the trolley out of the airport premises. Then he told us he ask the taxi drivers at the airport where is the nearest hotel around here, they told him this one and it was only 5 minutes away and the price was about RM 200 ++. That’s why he decided to walk to the hotel pushing all his stuff, but when he got there he felt cheated. The walk from the airport to hotel is around 25 minutes and all rooms’ starts from RM 350++.
So he decided to go back to the airport and spend the night there. So the hotel people took him back to the airport with the trolley. When he got there he wanted to sleep up stairs, unfortunately he can’t cause the upstairs area is only open when there are flights only. So we asked him weather he wanted to stay in a budget hotel and he said ok, then he headed to the taxi driver and asked them how much its going to cost him. The taxi driver was so rude and said he has to pay extra (RM 50) cause of his huge luggage. They treated him so badly so we decided to offer him a ride to the nearest budget hotel.
By the way he was a budget traveler, who is writing for the TIMES NEWSPAPER in Chicago. He writes the section on travel and living, we help him check in and we took of. The funniest part is the rude taxi driver taught D was a sweep taxi kind of person. The rude guy even treated to break our car windshield for offering the poor white guy a ride. We only did it out of courtesy think what would happen if we were in his shoes and people treated us like that.
So we can’t really blame people for saying Malaysian are rude, even if it was just one person it can really be a huge impact on a person especially outsiders. So c’mon people don’t treat people so bad if you don’t wan to be treated the same way, imagine us being in their place.
IS VISIT MALAYSIA YEAR 2007.
