On tolls , food issue and wake up call

There will be a study on highway concessions by the Works Ministry. One of the outcome may be lower toll rates. The number of cars on road is increasing. Toll concessions like PLUS, GrandSaga, Sprint and etc have existed since my childhood days.

Some residents of Bandar Mahkota Cheras were guarding at the second toll collection point. With the help of certain equipment they managed to remove the barrier build there. The removal of the block lead to a few outcomes. The traffic has improved since road users need not be caught in congestion. The toll concession company seems disgruntled with this. Trying to stop road users from having a free lunch.Hope this issue will be resolved soon. Not all parties will be satisfied no matter how things end up to be. Without the 2nd toll booth residents returning late from work will certainly be less stressed up. Sales for houses build by the developer may also rise.

The issue of toll never seems to end. Previously toll increase lead to unhappiness among road users. The continuous rise in the price of commodity and supplies followed by increase in price of fixed asset..One certainly cannot imagine how things will be like in near future.

The government has decided to use 4billion for stockpile purpose. So far efforts of BERNAS in ensuring adequate rice for all Malaysians should be commended. But how long will we be able to sustain with the decreasing exports of rice produing countries. Perhaps Malaysians should increase the intake of vegetables and other items. Cut down on rice and wastage . Hotels offering buffet meal may start penalizing those who dont finish their food.

Tun Mahathir's speech in Putrajaya once again reminded politicians to wake up from the political tsunami. As a Malaysian I certainly hope to see changes from the election aftermath. The signal from voters should not be taken lightly. Waste of time talking about matters that does not benefit the "rakyat" can be reduced. Solve matters amicably . Avoid using the legal way if possible. Heed the useful yet timely advice from our premier. I believe he wants what is best for Malaysia.
