With about 50 massage parlours condensed into two storeys at People's Park Complex, would-be customers are spoilt for choice. But this has irked some mall-goers, one of whom complained to Shin Min Daily News about the staff touting for business outside their stores. «Within a distance of less than 50m, I was solicited five times,» said the shopper. A Shin Min reporter who visited the building walked past the parlours while waving his hand in rejection, but some staff still approached with price lists and tried to sell their services. «The price is the same no matter which one you go to!» shouted one. According to the Chinese evening daily, a 30-minute foot massage costs an average of $15 across the parlours. One massage parlour staff, surnamed Guo, said the competition does not affect business much. «Each store does its own thing. When there are crowds, it's good for everyone and I won't say it's a cut-throat competition,» he explained. The owner of a watch shop located on the second floor of the complex told Shin Min the large majority of massage parlours had sprung up after the Covid-19 pandemic.

The cop told Wang she was not allowed to drive in the dedicated lane and instructed her to U-turn to Woodlands Checkpoint to re-enter Malaysia. Wang then offered the officer RM50 to let her continue driving. The latter refused and requested her to present her passport.

Before your next road trip up north, a check on your unpaid traffic fines in Malaysia would be advisable.
