Highway the Sarawak Style, Highway to Hell
11/12/2012 03:39:00 PM
We have traveled in PLUS and other highway in West Malaysia. We pay the toll and have the luxury of getting double lanes highway each way with rest area and others facilities. While in Sarawak, we have highway to Hell.. Sarawak style!
This is a pictures and comments from a friend of mine staying in Marudi. This is her experience whenever she has to drive from Marudi to Miri. The distance is about 40+ kilometers
The is her comment and pictures send to my phone via VIBER Apps: -
42km and construction is still in progress. Part near to Marudi between SG Arang Bakong and Baram is still BLACK CLAY. That where we got stuck and damn slippery because it is rainy day here now. The completed part has so many potholes though it was tarred and sealed just a few months ago. Belum setengah tahun pun.
Hi... hi where I was stuck just now
Ini dah tarred, and see lah!!!
My comment: Due to corruption, the sand is more than the pebbles and Tar
My comment: this is suppose to be a highway.. Sarawak Style
This is small stretch that has been repaired, I am not sure what is the maintenance cost
No sign of any construction of a bridge to replace this Chain-Pulled Ferry.. YES! I mean CHAIN PULLED Ferry!! No Joke! From Marudi to Miri, we have to take 2 ferries, RM60 for a round trip. It is more than your toll in KL for 42km?
Can you imagine a lady teacher who has to drive through the above road condition? I really solute her!! She asked that the politician from PKR or BN take the trip from Miri using the above road to Marudi. She is very sure they will be horrified by it.
She said "I am the only lady driving in that conditions, Memang dah Orang Ulu pun! Hardy...
In West Malaysia, we have all the nice toll road and even our state road is a lot better than the above. The oil rich Sarawak has contribute so much to the development of West Malaysia, but Sarawak does not enjoy the fruit of it's natural resources. Who are we to blame?
I said, stop the blaming and just do the outing.. let vote the corrupted BN government out!

PDRM: Children and Senior Citizen
4/28/2012 03:12:00 AM
I think the PDRM does not understand this.. We are fighting for the future generation. If you just leave us alone and path the way for us to SIT DOWN.. How difficult can that be?
I have attended rally in NZ before, it is a fun and family outing affair. We like to compare that we are better then other.. let do it here

Court Order: No Bersih 3.0
4/27/2012 04:07:00 PM
Just read online by Tony Pua that PDRM is not going to setup road block. On the other hand I read from
Hornbill Unleashed that the court has granted a court order to the PDRM.
I quoted from the article in Hornbill Unleashed: -

I quoted from the article in Hornbill Unleashed: -
“Therefore, any gathering at Dataran Merdeka, that is all the land surface bordering Jalan Sultan Hishamuddin, Jalan Raja and Jalan Kelab except the area occupied by the Selangor Royal Club… is now banned, and the public are warned against attending or taking part in any gathering from April 28, 2012 to May 1, 2012,” Zaki wrote.Shall we match to Selangor Royal Club? Selangor Royal Club we dare you to setup hospitality to welcome Bersih 3.0.

Guess What?
2/06/2010 05:52:00 PMPolice and FRU officers, who were on the scene to manage the crowd, at one point attempted to prevent the group from continuing their march towards XXXXX but were unsuccessful.
EDITOR'S NOTE: NOTE THAT THE POLICE DID NOT SUCCEED IN STOPPING THE MARCH
Read about the about from Malaysia Insider today, I kind of like the Editor's Note! Very funny but irony isn't it? May be the Water Canon is malfunctioning huh? No No.. I know what, No Water Supply? No No, all the chemical used in the water canon has been secret sold to foreign countries?
Aiyo... give me a few good reason can or no? May be reader please tell me lor :P

Police Road Block in Seri Petaling
9/22/2008 12:12:00 PMRecently come across a police road block around Seri Petaling area, in the direction from Technology Park Malaysia toward OUG. The location is under the massive flyover near the SMK Saujana.
I saw 3 police cars and a few bike park a long the side, and road has been reduced from 2 lanes to single lane. Hence the traffic congestion started from KESAS highway.
I was expecting something serious since they blocked the road with 3 police cars and a few police bike, with not less than 10 policemen on duty. However only 3 policemen were actively doing some work while the rest standing there chat to one another.
Do you know what they are looking for? ROAD TAX! I was so pissed off and about to wind down my window and give them my 2 cents worth. But my family member advice me to do otherwise.
A police force should be respected NOT feared Off! Why should we fear the police? They are our employee and why should I pay someone to do shitty job and I have a fear to tell him off?
What a life!
I went to a party
8/09/2008 09:19:00 PMI went to a party,
And remembered what you said.
You told me not to drink, Mom,
so I had a sprite instead.
I felt proud of myself,
The way you said I would,
that I didn't drink and drive,
though some friends said I should.
And remembered what you said.
You told me not to drink, Mom,
so I had a sprite instead.
I felt proud of myself,
The way you said I would,
that I didn't drink and drive,
though some friends said I should.
I made a healthy choice,
And your advice to me was right.
The party finally ended,
and the kids drove out of sight.
I got into my car,
Sure to get home in one piece.
I never knew what was coming, Mom,
something I expected least.
Now I'm lying on the pavement,
And I hear the policeman say,
the kid that caused this wreck was drunk,
Mom, his voice seems far away.
My own blood's all around me,
As I try hard not to cry.
I can hear the paramedic say,
this girl is going to die.
I'm sure the guy had no idea,
While he was flying high.
Because he chose to drink and drive,
now I would have to die.
So why do people do it, Mom
Knowing that it ruins lives?
And now the pain is cutting me,
like a hundred stabbing knives.
Tell sister not to be afraid, Mom
Tell daddy to be brave.
And when I go to heaven,
put ' Mommy's Girl' on my grave.
Someone should have taught him,
That it's wrong to drink and drive.
Maybe if his parents had,
I'd still be alive.
My breath is getting shorter,
Mom I'm getting really scared
These are my final moments,
and I'm so unprepared.
I wish that you could hold me Mom,
As I lie here and die.
I wish that I could say, 'I love you,Mom!'
So I love you and good-bye.

My car was sodomized by Sustagen
8/09/2008 12:24:00 PM
August 4, 2008, my car was sodomized by Sustagen without my car's consent. May be due to the popularity of sodomy and its related information. Sustagen from Mead Johnson decided to sodomize the back side of Malaysian car, with the tag line "I am a 100% Nourished kid". Worst those sticker does not peel off easily and I have to use warn water and detergent to clean the act up.
Luckily they did not go for my car's Exhaust Pipe or else my car will have hard time discharging all the combustion waste. Look like the marketing department of Mead Johnson is worst than Loan Shark or so called Ah Long. At least Ah Long will not stick "hard to remove sticker" at the back side of your car!
Mead Johnson, what say you? This blog will be CC to Mead Johnson Sales and Marketing Department and let see how they response to the sodomy charge.
“Whoever voluntarily commits carnal intercourse against the order of nature on another person without the consent, or against the will, of the other person, or by putting the other person in fear of death or hurt to the person or any other person, shall be punished with imprisonment for a term of not less than five years and not more than twenty years, and shall also be liable to whipping.”.

The haze is coming back and this bus does not help! It surely will contribute to the worsen effect of the haze in coming month. Picture take on the way to Bukit Raja Toll on the NKVE or 24 July 2008, 7:37am

Road Blocked Everywhere
7/13/2008 07:41:00 PM
I have a seminar in downtown KL at around 2pm, Sunday 13 July 2008. Since I have volunteer to man the registration counter, so I decided to leave for KL early with my 2 sons (both having autism) in the car. I detoured via Bukit Jalil, passed by Astro and moved toward Sungei Besi Highway! Oh My god it was a massive jam all the way to the toll plaza.
I wanted to stop over at the Petronas station and order some Junk food (Macdonald) for lunch. By the time we reached the outlet to order food my sons have tantrum badly in the car. Can you imagine 2 small boys (having autism) who were hungry?
Some of the road in downtown was closed and I encountered another road blocked near Pasar Seni, hence caused more delay, wasted more petrol!
Why create the need to have road blocked? Just because of some Non Confident Vote? Protest? Can we be a mature Malaysia? Vote and Protest is part of democratic action.
This picture is taken in Klang toll plaza around Jaya Jusco area (Monday, 14 July 4pm). All the lanes reduce to just one in front of the entrance to the poll plaza. The police on duty were just standing there chit chat, what are they checking? Basically Nothing! To me this is just a drama to create unnecessary fear in the public. The people are not stupid now!

Hardworking Traffic Cop
7/12/2008 01:09:00 PM
In the past few days, I have noticed that the traffic cop (White uniform) been very hardworking around the Sri Acmar School compound in Klang. They usually come around 330pm to issue tickets for some traffic offenders.
For you information the school dismissed at 330pm everyday except Friday. Why are you coming at this time? Issue ticket for those double parked along the road? The parents have no choice but double parked since the school compound is not big enough for all those cars to move in and out. Do you dare to issue tickets around mosque compound for double parking during Friday prayer time?
I am not saying people can break the traffic law just because there are not enough parking bays or in the rush! But Hey! Why not you help directing traffic everyday at 320pm - 400pm?
Your job is to serve, not to ambush! I will keep taking picture of all those cars that you stopped and do an audit on how many REAL tickets you have issued. Did you issue any? or just..... settled? Just my calculative guess, if you are not a corrupted one, please accept my sincere apology. But if you are, shamed on you doing this around the school compound.
Do you know what the kids' say in the school?

On the road 27-30 April

I would like to drive this bike around, cool!
Date: 27 April 2008, 2:43pm
Venue: Jalan Bukit Bintang, KL

Date: 27 April 2008, 2:42pm
Venue: Jalan Bukit Bintang, toward Lot 10.
Note: Basically this car (PFK863?) driver does not learn the common courtesy of giving way alternatively when approaching merging lane. Everyone is going alternatively merging into one lane where he insisted to get in front of me even when I am already 3/4 car length in front. Don't really understand the mentality, final result you are just one car in front of me only.

Date: 28 April 2008. 3:08pm
Venue: NKVE near SYABAS Building
Note: This 4 Wheels Drive (WFE945?) has been very slow on a 90Km/h road. I estimated by looking at my speedometer while crawling behind is around 60km/h.
I think the reason for the slow crawling speed might be cause by the driver. Could the drive be one of the animal? May be turtle from Jabatan Perkhidmatan Haiwan?

I don't have to say much about this lorry, saw a lot of this kind of Smoky Lorries along the way toward Bukit Raja Toll on NKVE. What a huge pollution! How come Puspacom can approve this on the road?

Slow and Good Driver? Really? [BJP237?]
4/26/2008 11:19:00 AMDate: 25 April 2008
Time: 7:48am
Car: BJP 237? (The last digit was blur off, and you should know who you are)
Location: Not sure the exact name of the highway, near SYABAS building. Just before the turn off to Klang and also Kuala Selangor exit.
The car was traveling on turtle crawling speed on the outer lane of the highway. I estimate he was going at 60km/h at an 90km/h highway. The cars behind has to back up a long way back while trying to over him on the left lane.
Just about 10 meters or less at the exit to Klang after the SYABAS building, he just cut in from fast lane (third lane to the first lane and exit). OMG when I peeked into the car, it was driven by a driver with someone at the back. It seems like they both did not know what happen behind them. I belief the driver might not even check his back mirror while driving.
