I was in Tesco Sungai Petani this morning.
The Postoffice was having a queue of a few hundred people, like idiots queueing up to get their Badawi cookies..........
Crazy, if they have to do something they queue because they do it on the last moment, they can get something free....hantam lah... all afraid they won't get it.
This is actually just nothing more than a one time hand out, and does not solve the problems created by the sudden petrol raise.
It is nothing else than a stuid sweetener, and could have been used a lot better, than giving out to people who are rich enough to afford a car.
There are plenty of people who cannot afford a car, and have to use a motorbike, or bycicle.
They are the needy once!
Think about pensioners, they already get little and now their small pension is devaluating by the day. Think about those plantation workers who still get a lousy 5-600 ringgit a month or even less. Those are the needy.
Those with a car can go car pooling, after all in the morning 95% of cars is SOV!
And furthermore in places like Penang i think in a year or so you can not even move around anymore, no parking space, jams all day till 8-9 at night. Thats the holy cow future.
Penang registers an average 30-40.000 cars and motorbikes a month, and all wants to show off their new vehicle..... well enjoy, i stick to my 10+ year old Wira, not gonna buy a new one anymore, because it is useless.
