EnterTheVoid Posted November 19, 2011 Posted November 19, 2011 Stumbled across this interesting little joint in Kuala Lumpur today. If you hold an Indian, Middle Eastern and/or Malaysian passport, you don't get entry into this hostel. Funniest bit is that this place is right in the middle of Little India and they are telling Indians to **** off http://www.travelfish.org/blogs/kualalumpur/2011/11/13/kuala-lumpur-hostel-reggae-mansions-controversial-guest-policy/
EnterTheVoid Posted November 19, 2011 Author Posted November 19, 2011 As for the place, I can personally vouch for it. Its party central. :rock: Just don't go in there with the passports mentioned above.
EnterTheVoid Posted November 19, 2011 Author Posted November 19, 2011 Looks like they reversed their policy after getting a tongue lashing from the mayor http://news.asiaone.com/News/AsiaOne%2BNews/Malaysia/Story/A1Story20111119-311448.html
zen Posted November 19, 2011 Posted November 19, 2011 Irrespective of whether it changed its policy, why would anyone want to give his/her money to such a company .... I would rather pay more for some other place than go to a place like this
EnterTheVoid Posted November 19, 2011 Author Posted November 19, 2011 Because its a five star hostel. It has its own private cinema theater FFS

EnterTheVoid Posted November 19, 2011 Author Posted November 19, 2011 Abe Rett, Malay's have been discriminating ethnic Chinese and Indians for a long time now. Now, here is a hostel that's owned by a Chinese dude that ends up discriminating Malays in Malaysia. BWHAHAHAHAHAH, fycking brilliant :hail:

EnterTheVoid Posted November 19, 2011 Author Posted November 19, 2011 Sex romps in the dorms and alcohol binges are an open secret. They are afraid people from the conservative backgrounds will rat on them.

Alchemist Posted November 19, 2011 Posted November 19, 2011 Long time ago, same was at German Backery in pune. That board actually read "Indians and Dogs" not allowed. Somebody bombed it recently, not for that reason though.
EnterTheVoid Posted November 19, 2011 Author Posted November 19, 2011 No big deal. The place I stayed in Mumbai did not allow Indian passport holders either. :hahaha:
