Question

Why KL taxi drivers practice robbery and cheating, most victims are tourists?

Answer 1

because some are just selfish.as malaysian, we try our best to bring out a good image of our country..but there are some people who just do not bother...sooo sad

Answer 2

hey buddy! my advise: don't post that kind of question here because you will be mobbed by the "holier-than-thou" yammer's here...



to answer your question: my guess is maybe because in KL, some taxi drivers have low morals. but this can be experienced also around the world. anyway, that is not a typical of malaysian people. there are just few who do it but most malaysians are friendly, kind and very warm. they really are nice people. i can say that because i have experienced their unique and very accommodating hospitality here. *wink*    

Answer 3

Tourist have more cash in hand and easy target because the Malaysian police ain't doing their jobs properly.It happen to me once , I made a police report at the police station but at the end I was advise to give it up.Maybe also due to the rise in the cost of living. but these kind incident happen almost everywhere in Malaysia. I stop going to Malaysia since...
