Penang Undercover: Includes Hatyai, Bangkok and Kuala Lumpur

By Paik Leong Ewe (author) and Paik Leong Ewe

In George Town, the capital of Penang, the Pearl of the Orient and a Malaysian island hugely popular with domestic and international tourists, trishaws ply the streets ferrying tourists between colonial buildings, temples, food spots and bars. The more enterprising trishaw drivers offer sightseeing with sex, sometimes with unexpected results.

Through candid interviews with sources in the sex industry, as well as Penang's trishaw riders, the author discovers shocking scams, pitiful repentances and happy-ending massages that don't end happy.

Penang Undercover also looks beyond Penang to the neon lights of neighbouring Hatyai and Bangkok in Thailand to expose the shenanigans of mamasans, bargirls, dream-makers and liars. Finally, the author unearths a few hidden nuggets from his hometown of Kuala Lumpur and the subject of his fi rst two books in the Undercover series. Typical of his style, this book is written with wit and candour.
