I think if someone had spat on me while I was there, I would have ended up in prison for assault. Penang seems to be a weird place. I've spoken to a number of people who love it there, but a number of people who had the worst time on their travels. Love it or hate it I guess. If you're continuing on through Malaysia, I hope things improve for you. They did for me and the rest of the country was a lot more friendly. Wow, I’m so sorry to hear that.

I found this entry by means of googling the words 'Penang' and 'sucks'. I would hereby like to back up every word you said about the rude bastards. But unless you're a girl, I don't think you got the full measure of rudeness. Today a complete stranger spat on me. Without exchanging a word or even looking at me. Mind you, I'm wearing the most conservative clothing I own - my hair is even covered - and I'm polite to everyone I meet. I can't help thinking that I've been spoilt by Thailand, where I have been for the last three months, because 9 out of 10 people there reply with a smile when one is offered, or offer one first. Dude. Penang sucks. I’m sitting in a guesthouse in Georgetown as we speak. I found this entry by means of googling the words ‘Penang’ and ’sucks’.
