Fuel price hike: cruel to be kind

Last Wednesday when I was still in PJ, I was about to set off with Cheng to buy some breakfast when I noticed a distinct lack of vehicles passing by. It was 8.30am and I was sure it seemed like a holiday. Later, I actually phoned my friend to ask if it was one!

This morning back in BG, when I bought the Sunday Star, I looked at the front page header 'Going Public' with a big picture of a usually busy part of KL but with an unusual lack of traffic jam. So it is confirmed we are actually travelling less.

Though I am among the many who still want to know how much of Petronas earnings had gone to waste, it is a blessing in disguise that we are more careful when we want to travel. Now, we are more conscious and actually plan our journeys.
