NATIONAL MOST MIS-PRONOUNCED NAME:
Carrefour. Sometimes even pronounced as Carry 4!On second thought, why bother pronouncing stupid French brands likePeugeot, Renault or Citroen correctly. I think it sounds better,when thelocal mechanics say 'Pew Jeot'. When I was in school, Milo was always'MeeLo', now that I'm sophisticated, I say 'My Lo'. So don't beembarrassed saying 'Carry 4' when the ! Mat Sallehs shamelessly pronounceorang utan as 'rangootan'.

The Bra-less Tourist. See how heads turn and traffic slows down when abra-less Mat Salleh backpacker goes 'bouncing' about on the streets.
