谁是烟霾的罪魁祸首?

埋怨这几天来烟霾的侵害, 让人没有一口新鲜的空气可呼吸。看到卫星地图上的热点,都是因为邻国的森林大火惹的祸。

嘿!先别责怪别人,看看自个儿院子里发生了什么事情:




这几张照片拍的地点并不是什么很远的地方,而是位于雪兰莪的一个住宅区! 这只是冰山一角。类似的做法到处都是。

在还没有把矛头指向别人,先看看自己有没有做好自己的本分。

Pirate One or Pirated One?

This is the converstation I overheard between a customer and a sales assistant at a video shop in one of the shopping center in town.

Customer: I would like to have the "Pirate of the Carribean 1" DVD, where could I get it?
SA: Please follow me here.
SA: Aiya, the DVD finish already.
Customer: Oh! Never mind. By the way, how much do you sell for a copy?
SA: It's 69.90 ringgit.
Customer: Wah! So expensive. How about VCD version?
SA: Got Pirate 1 VCD or not? (The Sales Assistant turned around and asked her colleague.)

Customer: No no, I don't want pirate one. I'm just asking for the VCD, I think should be cheaper than DVD.
SA: Just now you said you want Pirate 1. We don't have Pirate 2. Pirate 2 is not out yet.
Customer: Yeah, I want Pirate of the Carribean 1. The first one.
SA: Here the Pirate 1 VCD.
Customer: How much?
SA: 19.90
Customer: Wah! How come pirate one also so expensive?


So, which one is pirate one or pirated one??

Want to see how Malaysian drives? Part 10



A lot of Malaysian drivers are natural traffic offenders. Why I say so? Just look at the video clip above. They all did it so naturally.

The road is not an one-way street. Look at the green Proton Wira Aeroback. The driver need to wait for his turn to come out from the road because the incoming vehicles were blocking the way.

And it seems that the traffic offending drivers didn't even notice the sign "No Entry" at the junction. Do you think they didn't see it?

Most of them are KL local vehicles, and this road is one of the "short cut" to "escape" some jams. So most of them are very familiar to this road. Meaning to say, they know that they are not doing the right things. They lost patience in the queue and would rather take the risk to first drove in the opposite direction, and then turned into a "No Entry" road and continued to drive in a opposite direction so that they could beat the queue.

The fact is, this kind of situation happens whenever there is a long queue. Surprisingly, for so many occasions, none of the day the traffic police is stationed there to nab the offenders.

And even though the drivers are issued summon for such offence, one could simply wait for the "Mega sales" or "Merdeka discount" so that they could get a 70% off the summon amount! Malaysia Boleh!
