Lift your burka, please!


As a palate cleanser between Penang and Kuching, Malaysia courses, I thought you'd get a kick out of this sign posted at a Penang mall escalator. It warns -- lift your burka, or else!

BTW, no women in Malaysia wear burkas. Just during the Middle Eastern vacation month of July, tons of Middle Easterners come down to Malaysia to vacate among other Muslims. It was actually a bit jarring, at first, to see so many head-to-toe, eyes-only peeking out, black burka'ed women floating about the pool area, like ghosts.
