Search for the Embassy(Safarah)

I asked a few friends about the location of the Malaysian Embassy in Cairo. Generally they gave me three keywords, Safarah, Arma or Mohandisin. Thats all i know about it. So we just go ahead with our plan searching for the embassy.

We took a microbus to Rabaa', Cairo. This is the spot where we came across with the biggest problem. We ask the locals about Safarah and Mohandisin, Then a couples of seconds later he asked me back "Safarah eh?" which mean "What/which Safarah" That question turns my face to be like this.

The only keyword we have turns out to be a total crap. luckily a man which can speak English heard "Mohandisin" and offered us some help.

Here's some guide for anyone(1st year student, future Zagazig student) who wants to go to Embassy:

1.Safarah means Embassy if i'm not mistaken, no one tell me about it before. So if you were asked "Safarah eh?" like what happens to me, don't trembles around. just say "Malizi".. If the locals still don't know ask for Qatar Embassy because the building located near to each other and the Qatar one is much bigger.
