Malaysian National Excuses part 2

NATIONAL CURE FOR HEADACHES:
Panadol

NATIONAL CURE FOR DIZZINESS:
Minyak Cap Kapak

NATIONAL CAUSE OF DIZZINESS (FOR YUPPIES):
Happy Hours

NATIONAL INSTANT CURE FOR DIZZINESS (FOR YUPPIES):
The sight of a police road block.

NATIONAL RUBBISH DUMP:
Anywhere as long as it is not your house

NATIONAL MOST MIS-PRONOUNCED NAME:
CARREFOUR
Sometimes pronounced as Carry 4. On second thoughts, why bother pronouncing French brands like Peugeout, Renault or Citroen correctly. I think it sounds better, when the local mechanics say 'pew jeot'. When I was in school, Milo was always 'mee lo', now that I'm sophisticated, I say 'My Lo'.
