(7) Safety Tips

Stay alert, use common sense and be aware of your surroundings. If you
think you're being followed, step into a store or another public place
and wait to see whether the person passed by.

Dress conservatively and inconspicuously - take your fashion cues from
local women. In certain cultures, what you consider attractive casual
clothing may seen as provocative or inappropriate, even offensive,
which could spark harrassment.

Leave behind a detailed itinerary and photocopies of your passport's
identification page and your flight and ticket information at home.

Trafficking in illegal drugs carries the death penalty in Malaysia.
