Development of a country

So what makes a country fantastic to live in and wonderful to be told to everyone? It's infrastructure? It's modernisation? It's culture?

No...

Its the mindset of people!
People tend to complain on how great the country are because of the government help them with this and that. How wonderful it is as compared to Malaysia, how great the economy sector and so on. But when the government wants to introduce something that follows the other country, it is shot down with criticism.

For an example where the government plan to have checks on cars which is older than 15yrs. People tend to praise about Singapore on their automotive sector because they are so said better than us with new cars and so on. Singapore have yearly checks on their cars and every 5yrs they have to change their car or esle the road tax for the car will increase. Would Malaysians want that? I dont think so, people would surely complain. Incentives given ofcourse to change cars in 5yrs, but just imagine. Everyone has the incentives, wouldnt it be the same since everyone has the same incentives?

Then there is UK with their MOT. Every year they have to go for one. New or old surely they have to. What is there to complain about Malaysia's checks on cars which is 15yrs and older?

I understand for those who complains about how inefficient puspakom can be. But the people just doesnt make any sense if they say they couldnt keep old cars anymore. you still can keep, you just need to go for yearly checks.

Im supportive of this new ruling which was taken down IF puspakom is efficient and it does not involve in any money laundering.

But the problem is that if there is nothing been done, people will start to compare with other country and when we try to follow other countries we get criticisms.

Its all due to the mindset of people, comming back to mindset again. If mindset can be changed, wouldnt this country would be a wonderful one and be as productive and efficient as Singapore? I guess so... but, I still love living in Sabah. Its my home... LOL!

Life is just like that

#1
When you are rich, you tend to admire the poor on how they can survive. You tend to mourn and be depressed because you have too much money; hence the term "Money can't buy happiness". But when you are poor, you tend to admire the rich. You dream on what if you have loads of money. You tend to think that you will be extremely happy because you have the money to spend and never have to worry about money.

#2
When you are in a relationship, you will think that you cant live without your partner and you must be in a relationship. But when you break up.. for that brief moment you will think that single life is one hell of a good thing.

#3
When you learn about something that baffles your mind from another person who isnt your friend, you tend to ignore the fact and says that he/she is crazy. But when it is your friend who tells you the fact, you will take it in as if it is something new for you to learn.

#4
When only your opinion is needed for a certain item, you despise it and hate it so much until you could not bear to see it. But when a whole bunch of people praises it and adores it, you will do the same. Crowd psychology...

#5
When you drive an exotic sports car, you tend to laugh at people who have an old car. But the person who drives the old car will laugh at you because he will think that you are extremely dumb and spastic to spend so much money on a car that could do what his old car do for him.

#6
When you smile and be friendly to people in public places, you think it nice and friends who knows your intentions will think that you are great. But to strangers, you are no more than a down syndrome kid who needs to go into a mental hospital.

#7
When you get something expensive, the people who knows the value of the item will praise and envy you. But to those who doesnt know the value of the item will say that you are an extreme idiot to have spend so much on a worthless piece of crap.

#8
Playboys will think people who are loyal are dumb and dont know how to enjoy the pleasures of life. Those who are loyal will have no respect on playboys because they have no ability to mould a single being to become his ultimate pleasure.

#9
When you are inlove, you do funny things and dont mind. When you are no inlove, you tend to think those actions are stupid and very childish and you will avoid it at all cost.

#10
When you support a race(not racing lah..), you will talk good and defend their every move (white supriority is one example). The race that you praise will take an advantage of you and make full use of your kindness and leave nothing behind and run away calling you a sucker.

Bowling.

It was my childhood sport that I really adore. I adore it more than anything esle because I know I can be damn good in it. It was the only sport that made me angry, cry, nervous, happy, excited, etc...

Now that I've stopped and it has been 6yrs since I last really got into bowling. Im thinking should I start bowling all over again and spend thousand and thousands of ringgit just to play it? The money involves is very high. Lemme give you a good look on things..

The ball = RM400-500
one game = RM5

One game is never enough. A normal bowling session consist of 6-8games. which means I'll be paying RM40. *gulp*.

I cant believe how prices of the game shot up. Last time when I was active I was paying RM2.50 or RM3 per game. Now its so expensive.

If I start again, I have to buy a new ball. My Columbia300 ball is expired dy. Have to spend a few hundred bucks just to get a new ball. Not to mention a spare ball also.

decisions decision decisions....

If I want to buy a ball, I would love to have this as a starting point.

Brunswick Avalanche Slide.

or


Ebonite Clash.

hmmm... Shud I or shud I not... decisions decisions..
