Topless women cause a stir at beach

Getting a tan: The four women at Pantai Saujana in Port Dickson.

PORT DICKSON: Four women caused a stir when they were seen sunbathing topless at Pantai Saujana here.

An eyewitness said passers-by stopped to look at the bikini-clad Caucasian women who did not seem bothered.

He said the women, three of whom were believed to be in their 20s while the fourth one was 40-something, were swimming there earlier.

It was about 3pm and the beach was not crowded then, he said.

“However, as the crowd got bigger, the women got out of the sea and walked back to shore.

“Then they lied down on the beach and were unperturbed,” he added.

It could not be verified whether the four women were staying at any of the hotels along the stretch.

The eyewitness said the women continued to sit on the beach but eventually became irritated by the stares.

“They got up and walked away. No one saw where they went or whether they drove away,” he said.

Another eyewitness claimed that the women even removed their bikini bottoms when they were done with their swimming and came back to the beach.

“People were shocked. But the women did not look bothered at all.

“My guess is that they were unaware that it is wrong to go topless on our beaches,” he said.

An officer at the Port Dickson Municipal Council said they did not receive any report on the matter.

“We will send our officers to investigate,” he said.
