Hmm.. I'm just too sick and tired of the oil price increase thingy! I mean everywhere is talking about this, on TV, forums, pickets, newspapers and etc. But the day-to-day burden is still ON US!
Keep asking us to "
Change your life style to adapt to this changes.." Yeah, what does the
government higher-positioned people knows about
our life??? Their lives are sponsored in such many ways. Houses, cars, petrol, food... what else? They can even avoid traffic jams and tolls! Hell, what do they know how we feel or what we have to go through everyday of our lives.
Try to live our lives for once!
Reduce your salary to the low or middle range citizen's salary. How much will that be? Try RM1500 for a start? Get your own loan for a car and rent a house. Let's say you're married with 2 kids.
Get the public transport everyday to go work. See how hard it is to feel the aircond, to even fit yourself to that tiny space with that too packed busses or lrts and if you're not that lucky.. you have to wait for the next bus or next next one or next next next one.. Can you live it??
If not, try to drive you own car to go places. Pump your own fuel with your own money. Spend your own money to pay for the mechanics and car maintenance also. Do not have your
traffic police escort you everywhere. Let's get stuck in the traffic jam together like us.. the normal citizens. See how you feel.. can you live it??
Go shopping at the supermarkets yourself and not let your '
maid of the house' do it. Pay the grocerries with your own money and carry it yourself too. See whether you feel the price increase or not?? Can you live it??
Give some pocket money to your wife and kids and also buy educational stuff for your kids with again.. your own money. Don't forget your beloved parents and maybe siblings..How does that feel? Can you live it??
"Put yourself in our shoes.. oh, my beloved government '
higher-positioned' people!" Get to really know our issues, feel our burden and tell us... Do we have the rights for not being satisfied with your judgements, your rulings and your decision-making??
Keluhan dan isi hati seorang rakyat biasa....
