On Tuesday morning, at least three French nationals, one female and two males were on the location. SMN News reporter approached the OPCs and asked them what they were doing at the Lookout point where visitors try to enjoy the peace and tranquility on the island. The female OPC was not at all nice as she responded very rudely saying she was doing the same as everyone else. Not only that when SMN News reporter decided to take a photograph of the nuisances, the female tourist stretched her tongue out and after that decided she too will take a photograph of SMN News reporter.
