Unexpected 2

I was going through Hamoodi's homework with him. Whenver he wrote wrongly he would use the eraser at the butt of his pencil to erase the error.

Me: Hey, why don't you buy a separate piece of eraser? You're about to use up this eraser but the pencil is still very long. That means you do need a separate piece of eraser.

Hamoodi: How about I give you the money and you help me to buy one?

Me: Haha, no way, don't be such a baby. Go buy it yourself!

Hamoodi: But I don't know where to buy it *sad puppy face*

Me: That's easy. Why don't you go back to the same shop where you bought this pencil?

Hamoodi: I bought this pencil when I was still in Saudi Arabia.

Me: OWH REALY?! *carefully examine the pencil*

It was indeed very different from what we have in Malaysia. It even had Arabic words carved on the wooden shaft. Then I burst out laughing very loudly (again) when I came across this on the shaft:

MADE IN INDONESIA

Our Saudi friend here bought an Indonesia product and brought it to Malaysia, which is just a neighbouring country of Indonesia :)

Thank you for the good time, brother :)
