Toilet

2.5 out of 5 starsHelpfulness

diageva 547 reviews

Favorite thing: As is common in Asia, you will have a hole as toilet and, or a sort of shower, or a recipient for putting watter to the hole of the toilet. Better if you take always with you paper for after.

Model of an old ship

Favorite thing: Hundreds of years ago, Melaka was an important trading port due to its location on the Straits. This is a model of an old ship, the type that used to pull into the port in those times.

Missions statement

Fondest memory: Sourbugger wrote a tip about mission statements for Singapore taxi drivers. Here's one I saw in Melaka. Why bother?

"We don't try but we do it because we can".

Museum?

Fondest memory: At the Square there is apparently a museum (so I read). Now, I don't know if what I saw was the museum. Some old photos, bottles and containers.

Chinese dentures

Fondest memory: Sorry. I can't help it with quirky things but I loved these dentures. I think though that if I needed any dentist work done, I'd wait until I got home.
