An older, touristy looking gentleman boards a bus, sits down and wipes sweat off his face. Then he jumps up and addresses the driver loudly, Hey, sir, is it the right way to Toozhunga? Hmm, I am not familiar with that destination, sorry, man. Whaaaaaaat? But I saw it on my map!, he exclaims, waving it in front of the drivers face. Then he turns around, a bit panicky, and asks other passengers. Everyone looks confused, people shrug their shoulders. Could you spell it, please?, I suggest. T-U-J-U-N-G-A, he reads off his map in a roaring annoyed voice. Suddenly all the commuters get very animated and burst out laughing. Its Takhanga, and you need to transfer on a different line, explains one of them. Oh, whatever, couldnt they have come up with a normal English name. Start feeling like a minority in my country now, he complains, but noticing angry stares, promptly shuts his mouth and leaves the bus, without asking for further directions.
