We have often been told about a foreigner who lost his way somewhere in Malaysia. He called up his local friend and when asked, 'Where are you now?', he replied, 'at a road called Jalan Sehala'!
'Jalan Sehala' in Malay means 'One Way Street', and can be found in busy streets in towns and cities, all over Malaysia!
This news from Bayi, might interest Dominik and he should be able to confirm if this is actually Polish language:
Red-faced police crack mystery
Irish police chasing a Polish driver who had apparently committed more then 50 motoring offences have discovered the embarrassing truth.
Officers had been puzzled how the mysterious 'Prawo Jazdy' had always produced his documents - but with a different address each time.
However, they have now discovered that 'Prawo Jazdy' is Polish for driving licence, reports Metro.
An internal Garda memo, reported in Irish papers, said officers taking details of Polish traffic offenders had been mistakenly using 'Prawo Jazdy', printed in the top right corner of the driving licence, as the holder's name.
"Prawo Jazdy is actually the Polish for driving licence and not the first and surname on the licence," the police memo said.
"It is quite embarrassing to see the system has created Prawo Jazdy as a person with over 50 identities."
A Garda spokesman declined to comment on the reports.
Government fed by the people

I suggest government... because nobody has ever been caught.
