When I first saw this sign at our hotel in Bangkok I wondered if durians and mangosteens were ethnic minorities. In fact they are types of fruit. The mangosteen is a fragile creature that rots if it isn’t eaten very quickly. And the durian smells like rotting fish even when it’s fresh.
Yesterday Summer spotted the following regulation posted in our hotel in Hoi An (paragraph 7):
Bicycles, motorbikes, pets, fire-arms, explosives, inflammable, stinking things and even prostitutes aren’t allowed in the hotel.
