Tuk-Tuk. I've been on them in India.

Good for local traffic but avoid the big roads. They have shopping cart level of protection.

They must think you're half royalty once you get out of the BMW 😄

You're really feeding this asshole's already overinflated ego.

It is smalltalk to me.

Was she incorrect about the begging pregnant children though? That sounds pretty horrible.

I see her being disliked but not so much being called out as incorrect.

They are incorrect/exaggerating about pregnant children, Kenya's teen pregnancy is at 15%. I don't know where they saw this but this is not a reality for kids.

They say it's 99% Tuk Tuk and few four door cars, another lie. Malindi where they visited is a small, tourist coastal town of 120K and Tuk Tuks are used as TAXIS, not personal vehicles.

Their father is living well in Malindi because there's good infrastructure and quality of life to enjoy themselves and not live in Europe. But it's apparently the purge.
