KIA car park permit

Have you ever taken time to look closely at your Kamuzu Intl. Airport parking permit? I do and it is always suspect. The cashier, on most occasions, makes sure he does not stamp the day in full on the ticket. why? So that on your way out, the guy at the exit of the park takes it, gives it back to the cashier so he can re-issue it. He can re-issue the ticket for a full 9 days before it becomes useless. Then on the 10th of February, he issues new tickets to be used for another 9 days. Then again on the 20th, the does the same thing. All along he is pocketing a number of K75's in a day.

Don't believe me? Next time watch the cashier very closely. He rarely stamps the ticket while you are standing there, he will normally do it while you are walking up to the booth and tears it off before he receives your money. Then the lad at the exit gate simply confiscates your ticket. If you insist on getting it back, he puts a small tear in it.
