1.Be humble (talk nicely w/o raising their volume)

4. Always bargain the price down (turning down the 1st 2 quoted price if possible)
I am a Sillyporean and i know many not-so-good etiquette most Sillyporean have during their travels. i know it would be near impossible to one day be able to hear that majority Sillyporean will be taken as being nice humble people in this lifetime but the least i could do is i could let people who interact with me in Batam knows i as one individual Sillyporean is not a no good lousy negative person. i start with myself 1st. |
While i seating back & relaxing ,all of a sudden i hears a sheep says,...Meh-eh-eh!
& u knw i wasn't refering to u.
Enjoy the show!
