The past few weeks, my travels to the city has been somewhat interesting.. I am talking here about the hub of business, the hustle and bustle for many.. but what happened to the roads leading to and within the city..
Jalan Ampang - where the majestic Suria KLCC and many embassies are housed is a road of horror as one has to has to learn how to maneuver to ensure you dont hit a pot hole.. then of course, we have Jalan Sultan Ismail, and Jalan Raja Chulan not spared as well.. The supposed Golden Triangle of the city is now the Golden 'Pothole' Triangle...
As I ponder about this further, it of course dawned upon me..
The Signs of Malaysian Economy = Potholes on the Roads in Malaysia
Why do i say this.. the past six months, we have heard of price hikes on petrol, sugar and other necessities.. but little have we heard of the status of the economy.. So where is the supposed allocated funds going to.. surely not on the roads that leads many investors to 'multi billion dollar' corporations in the city..
I am a tax payer and I have every right to expect some changes be done.. enough lipsyncing about 1Malaysia.. something that I believe will take another 15 years for Malaysia to achieve.. Please look into matters at hand and work on them.. And please dont take us the rakyat (or immigrant as some may call me) for suckers..
Wise or Otherwise, you decide

The road conditions are outcome of "cover-ups" after "cover-ups", ie returfing, topsoling etc. Surprisingly, they dont take into consideration of overweight vehicles lording the roads, ie "lori hantu" & the tropical setting of the country, ie rain- rain - rain every where!
However much of subsidy diverted for "more compelling programme for betterment of rakyat", these would go to waste as intelligent planning is almost non existent!
The politicians seem to be busy holding on to the position and the bureaucracy more still digging in for their own benefit- which one day will be for their own peril! - as it evidences itself in perak debacle and soon to be Selangor circus!
What do we do - battle on - buy a meaner HILUX terrain vehicle and plough it on the roads!
Goos that u took notice esp thru yr experiential learnig!
