Going into High Alert

At times I wonder what are we doing in the first place. We say things, then take it back. We carry out tasks only to abandon it later on. So what are we really doing in the first place.

Frustration sets in when we find out that we aren’t achieving the things that we try to do. Rather than will do it, we try instead of actually getting focused on it. Hence we get into limbos as it goes. Up and downs in life and we are not even sure if we’re on the up slope to getting there or on the down to giving up and just doing nothing at all in the first place.

Some of us are crushed. Deep inside we went too deep. Close to us, close to our hearts and how far we extend our arms limits our reach to things. Sometimes it’s only air that we catch and nothing more.

Some of us are unresolved. Matters which are over but have yet to be told what to do next. Where are we headed without resolving the issue? I don’t know. Are you even sure it’s resolve. I have no idea.

There are those who give up all and all on the spot. Running away from the hurdle instead of trying to jump over it. Can’t blame them, we all want something that is good for our lives and the smarter choice is always to go for something better, hence run round the hurdle to the next one instead of jumping over it. Sure you’ll be faulted but who’s there to fault you?

The flow moves, yet we fight against it. Flood comes, we try to swim or just sink and drown. I want to float rather and just watch as I’m crushed, beaten, insulted, let down, taken down, ignored, made fun of, getting frustrated, feel lonely and many more that the sadness has to offer.

So happens that during our stay here. We had the courtesy of some hospitality from the lab owner where we’re conducting the training as it goes. He took us out for dinner and then coffee later on on a Tuesday night over here in Sabah.

Turns out there’s a lot that we actually don’t find surprising as it goes on here. Politics and money are very much involved however the state turns out to be the loser in the end. With all the money going to the federal government instead of coming back to rejuvenate the economy here, things are bleak looking. Like now, there are more flyovers here in KK itself and the best part one ends with traffic lights just as you get off it. Isn’t it suppose to cure the traffic issue? The worst part there is another set of lights after that. 260 million to cause yet the same traffic jam. Sometimes we wonder if the government here in Malaysia is actually thinking properly in running this country or just another “pocket money” idiot who doesn’t know a frak about his job at all.

So happens that the very gentleman we met up with used to be part of the council and he was a former town planner for the city of KK, transport and admin was his role. Yes he runs a blood testing lab and makes tons of money yet he’s still a consultant fo the council and they are banking on his experience to help them find ways to solve the damn traffic problem which the @$$holes in KL are trying to screw up.

Well he is truly a person to respect, from my analysis of him from the entire night, he’s a king maker, one person whom is to be feared. With his knowledge of council land and planning he owns a stake in one of the local hospitals, but because it’s state land they can’t do much against him. A good businessman and also having a lab that is up to standard and gives quality work and not to mention 24 hours service to boot. He is something I have come to respect and learn from in that short session that we had together with him.

A family man of 4 children whom are all married and also a Christian, I would say, he is a really amazing person and not to mention his hair style. Funky spikies all over at his age, and the best part is a lot of known people in town know him and he knows them, connections all over as they tend to walk in to his place for blood tests and so on. I would say one of the few people in KK that really knows what the heart and soul of KK is all about, serving the people of Kota Kinabalu for 40 years and still going strong.

However due to it all being job related I can only describe him as it goes.

WEll back to the point, the entire state of Sabah suffers from a lot of dumb things that the dear cracks in KL have messed up. Subsidised palm oil? Biggest state producer and u want them to subsidise it? Road tax goes back to the federal government? What about the roads here? Allotment of funding? Hello we have so much going on here that we need the money to upgrade all our public facilites? The list just goes on. This city has potential to keep on developing and impoving but as long as our monely slaving donkeys in parliament do not wake up and realise that we need a total revamp in the economy we will never be able to stand equally with our very own fellow Malaysians in Sabah and Sarawak, what more Singapore?

260 million just to maintain the same bloody traffic jam? Hey the kampung’s here don’t need it, all they need is one road and yes they walk all over it, so take the money and find a smarter way to make more money with it, I’m sure the Chinese people of Sabah will gladly use it 100% and make sure you earn back 200% for giving them the chance to earn from it also.
