A Man's 'Erection'

The past few weeks has seen a rhapsody of blunders.. The best thus far has been a certain need for an ‘erection’ of a 100 storey building and of course mega refurbishment of Little India – Brickfields..

My rendezvous for late night ala Malaysian latte is now in the midst of a complete makeover.. Makeovers are to enhance the look and feel but this is not the same with the good old Brickfields..

Wise or Otherwise, You Tell Me!!!

Congestion – traffic in no way has eased.. infact there are more cars double parked, hordes of two wheelers and of course the place seems like a place with a never ending party..

Arches – Oh! Those lovely arches!! Perhaps the arches were done to enhance the look of the place (of course cover the shop frontages as well).. all the place actually needed was sprucing up.. not extra structures that’s going to cause City Hall tonnes of money (tax payers money) to build and maintain as well..

Street Lamps – There is one, two or too many. One can be seen every 10 metres.. in times when reducing, reusing and recycling should be the voice of the nation, here we are continuously flushing good money down the toilet bowl.

The Gigantic Fountain – Another sight for sore eyes.. A glimpse of it and enough said..

Whilst a congratulations is due to Dato’ Saravanan for leading this ambitious project and actually delivering it.. I am also quite wanting to see if this facade will be maintained 6 months down the road..

I hope to see this infamous ‘erection’ boost the economy of the business community there.. but that is a wise woman’s wish..

wise or otherwise.. you tell me!!
