The so called touts at KLIA.

I was at KLIA 2 nights ago awaiting to pick up some
VIP who was coming back from Russia -_-" canggih eh?

However the flight was delayed and I was waiting there
from 11:30pm to about 1:30 or 2:00 am.

As a person who likes to observe people, i stood there
looking at each of the people coming out from the
arrival place towards the arrival hall.

At the exit of the arrival hall there are these bunch of people wearning white shirts and some in coats.
Also some friends and relative awaiting for the love one, families members and friends.

Everytime when people come out the atmosphere of the
arrival hall changes to Pasar Besar Kota Bharu.

First there would be people shouting," Mr Lee Mr Lee"
with signboard and banner, " Mr Lee, Mr Lee ? "

and there would also be people like," Samantha !
Samantha, What What Hotel . What What Hotel ! "

These are the drivers or pick up agents from some
hotel to pick up some guests ( registered and pre-
booked ).

But with a proper banner and sign board in
their hand they no need to shout already right?

And also i heard," Sri Hatamas ! Sri Hatamas !! " and
i saw the tout approaching a Korean.

Oh, so most of the Korean would go Sri Hatamas isit ?

I don't know about other places and airport but I find
it very interesting that there are people like the
above making the atmosphere warm at KLIA.

Imagine if you are a lonely traveller on a 13 hours
flight from cold country like East Europe, and at the
arrival hall there are all these nice people "offering"
you to somewhere, I don't know but perhaps it is not
that bad afterall, isn't it?

But then, don't lah charge people RM500 for a trip from
KLIA to the hotels in KL right?

RM500 and drive all the way to Bangkok already !!!

Let's hope that they all could keep out the good works
and for those who cause problems to KLIA be removed.

touts are second or third lines of people that tourist
see and i hope the tourist could have a good impression
with them.
