A street photographer has once again sparked outrage online, this time for verbally lashing out at a tourist from China.
Only wanted 1 photo for RM5
In a viral 17-second video, the tourist can be seen using the services of one of the unofficial street photographers operating around the iconic twin towers.
After the shoot, the tourist reportedly told the photographer he only wanted one photo which cost RM5.
The photographer, however, appeared unhappy with the request and responded by hurling vulgarities at the tourist.
The China tourist didn’t understand what the photographer said and asked the local guide what he said, to which she replied, “He’s angry because you only picked one photo.”
Netizens slam photographer’s behaviour
The video quickly gained traction on social media, with many Malaysians calling the photographer’s attitude “embarrassing” and saying it tarnishes the country’s image among foreign visitors.
One commenter wrote: ‘This kind of behaviour ruins Malaysia’s image for tourists.’
Some even called on authorities to station auxiliary police in the area to prevent such incidents from recurring.
