Can you imagine someone taking the rainforest kayaking trip and was disappointed that they did not see any dolphins ‘as expected’? What the kayak paddle is this person talking about? Expecting to see dolphins swimming up and down the jungle river while orangutans swing from vines to vines overhead?
And not just a lay person or a foreigner mind you but someone local and in the trade – an executive director of a tour and travel company from Penang to be exact. Perhaps they over-pressurise the cabin on the inaugural AirAsia direct flight from Penang to Kuching? But more likely I suspect that this person could just be pretending to be confused while in actual fact is just full of crap by ’squeezing’ a free ride out of us and then later on pretending to be dissatisfied with the trip as not what they had expected while never having the intention to sell or promote our kayaking trips in the first place … *sigh* I could be wrong but I doubt it having encountered all sorts of people over the past 5 decades. Luckily this sort of people are a minority but they do pop up once in a little while; serving I think to remind us not to take for granted the truly pleasant, nice and wonderful people we encounter in our daily lives.
May your weekend be anything but confusing!

Maybe he’s just trying to smear the competition…kind of like someone at Novell saying, “We tried Vista, and it didn’t live up to the hype. Try our version of LINUX instead…”
All’s fair in love and business.

Why do u guys assume that the gender was male … it’a a female dog man! And all that was to set herself up for another free Dolphin ride when she comes back in July for the Rainforest Music Festival!
Put her in the pink kayak and have some friends standing by on the riverbank with boxes of rotten durians…
