How does a person walk on his sandals? He would have to line them up for a significant distance before walking from point A to point B.

I told me children to dress simply when going into Malaysia. However, their idea of dressing down is wearing a Polo Ralph T-shirt, Tommy Hilfiger bermudas and Birkenstock sandals! LOL!

If the only car that the family possesses is a luxury make, then they shouldn't drive into JB.
