Was reading a bit on Kuala Pilah (I'm gonna be stranded there for six weeks, least I can do is find out where all the chicks congregate :P) and came across this, which I found totally hilarious and have put down on my KP TO-DO-LIST.

"The Sim Tong Chinese Temple is the oldest temple in town and is worth a visit if you have not been to one before. Behind the temple is a large hexagonal shaped market place with lots of food outlets selling local food from chicken rice to fresh water turtle soup. Turtle soup is a delicacy here. The slaughtering of these turtles is most horrid. This was once witnessed at a market some years ago where the vendor used a turtle, usually of the same sex to entice the chosen turtle to stick its head out of the shell. The sight of a rival aggravates the chosen turtle, it sticks its head out and locks its jaw on the other in a battle. The cook then chops off their heads with one fatal blow of the cleaver!"

Hohoho, the turtle tamer in me's raring to go.
