Toll Hike

First we receive good news that 2 of our many tolls are to be demolished. Hundreds of thousands of motorists are cheering for the first ever cancellation of toll booth before its contract maturity date is worth celebrating.

Barely a week or two later came a shocking news that Najis allow tol company to raise their fare by minimum 5%. What a shock that we had and then came to our rescue is Badawi, who criticised that it's come at a worst possible time to allow tol fare to increase.

So breaking news again the next day that tol fare remained the same at least for the remaining year. But it all come with a cost, which government need to compensate tol operators million of ringgits.

But do we look like we care? I don't think so because the money we already paid through various source, and the money usage we have all no control of it. So whether government compensate them, or they find their own way, I couldn't give a toss as long it doesn't come from my very own pocket anymore.

That's my feeling on all these things. That's what it should be celebrated.

I am not celebrating because the toll rate remains the same.
1)The govt should reduce the toll rate during the our hardship.
2)Najis is taking over end of this month....who knows what will happen? The idiot may reverse the decision.
3)Bad awi said This is not a flip flop govt....I say this is a totally flop govt.
