I've come to the conclusion that Malaysians make the best sales people in the world. These people are a very hardworking race, incredibly persistent and do not take "no" for an answer. Neither do they understand a vigorous shake of the head. It's simply not in their vocabulary.
If you are like me, an ordinary housewife without much spending money (hint, hint, hubby), there are many places you can go to for a cheap lunch that won't burn a hole in your pocket.
Unfortunately, you are also exposing yourself as a potential target to all those tradesmen (door to door salesmen, or in this case, table to table salesmen) who push their products under your nose, or, in between the strands of your noodles if you happen to be slurping away.
A quick way to get rid of them is to continuously move your head from left to right, making sure the noodles hanging out of your mouth does a thorough sweep of the lottery ticket or fake Rolex watch. They would immediately snatch their product out of harm's way and move on to the next table.
