Well, the verdict is in.

Remember the blog I did earlier this week about the alleged cause of the Malaysian Earthquake? Click that link if you didn't see it but, here's the short version.  Western tourists caused the quake by taking a nude selfie atop Mt. Kinabalu which showed disrespect to the sacred mountain and, basically, pissed it off.

The four western tourists who supposedly did this were held on indecent behavior charges while an investigation was carried out and have now had their day in court. They were sentenced to time served and a $1,330 fine.  Not as bad as it could have been I guess. Especially considering that one tribal chief wanted them to either serve three months in jail or pay a fine of 10 buffalo.

I'm not sure what buffalo go for these days but, I'm assuming that, $1330 is a much better deal.
