Double pricing. They can shove it.

double pricing goes on in western countries, it's just more subtile. the standard rates are high, but local magazines / newspapers that the average tourist doesnt read has discount offers for 'locals' to encourage them to come.

I'm fairly sure most of these places offer you the local price if you show them your local drivers license, some proof that you're not a short term tourist, but a long term resident.

The only thing these malls are good for is sitting in the coffee shops and people-watching.

OK I mean girl-watching.

Why do types like you insist on trying to justify this kind of crap? Businesses offer discounts in local paper to attract local customers, not as a way to secretly charge more for foreigners.

Also, for your information, most of these rip-off businesses charge you the white face price no matter what documents you produce.
