From A KL Friendster



Since I came to this big city, I joined so many companies and eventually decided to work with a company that promised not to bankrupt, the government.
17 years in big city, I see various ways people make a living. People with different walk of life running their daily expenses from some wage earners like me, the night market dealers, taxi drivers, and many more and there are some who really glitter in their career like corporate leaders.
Bitter sweet pill in a big city and the challenges of life is karma. Some may win, some lose depends on the efforts and their faith. Walking to Chow Kit and Kampung Baru, we might have seen many stalls run by outsiders. Uptown, Downtown, Street Walk Nighttown and lymph samples of their business and we can see Indons carry outlets. There are our small- medium business entrepreneurs. In other words, a prosperous country is a country that is easy to make life and business transactions without any restrictions. We left them a blank cheque to be completed, participated in the rally and we showed what we left and finally we blame other people that share taken by others.


My friend who had just returned from the UK told me that there is a tax of up to 40% of what is stated in the pay slip for an employee. In addition, TV and radio also have a license and taxes paid. Fresh engineer salary in KL may be only RM3000, but they only have to pay about RM 50. However, making the noise is a property of our citizens. Malaysian always choose to mumbling rather than grab the opportunity and never been grateful for what they have. They feel as if they might be happier if their children had each day be the Jedi rebellion instead of going to school. What is the justice that they will see? Are they really the desire for freedom of speech but have a hard time to make a living? Can we burp with the freedom of speech without food in the stomach?


As for myself, I just want my children to live in peace in the city. Growing up with an adequate education, respect for the elderly and able to stand on their feet. Outsiders just easily come here making profits and taken back to their respective states. For us we prefer deal with demonstrates. We choose to fight the sinister way with something that we have for a long time.
