Surviving is an ART

December 18th, 2004 | by winsonlee |

Visited thestar.com.my and some of the news caught my attention. One of them was the toll increased 10% for the north-south highway. Another one of it was the charges by Maybank for using the Maybank2u service. Maybank will be charging RM 12 a year for using their online banking. This means that the expenses incur by the Malaysian will increase. Many people disagree with all this unreasonable charges. Since they have decided on it, what can we do as a normal citizen ?? As long as we need to use their service, we got to agree with it. It is not that I am on their side, but all I can say is there is nothing much we can do other then complaining. The rich will get richer and the poor will get poorer. The rich will use their money to suck more money out from the poor. 90% of the population only own 10% of the money and 10% of the remaining population own 90% of the money. I know that is unfair but that is the fact that we cant changed. What does the 10% of the population do ?? They just impose rules and regulation for the 90% of the population to follow. Things can be done to get your self out from the 90% category. It is all depends on your self. We always blame the government for the things that they had increased and blame our employers for not increasing our pay. Eventually everyone will survive although things have increased. It is all depends on how you going to survive only. We complain that we do not have enough money due to all this expenses because we are not willing to give up on our current life style.  For example I earn RM 1000 a month and every month my expenses is RM 600. With the increase of toll, my expenses can still remain as RM 600 as long as I am willing to compromise on the other things that I spend on. Instead of going coffee bean for coffee, I can always choose to go mamak for milo ice. We always want our lifestyle to get better without knowing if we are capable of doing so. Since we are not able to change the policy that set by the company or government, the only solution is to change our self. For the current society, most of them are so lucky that they have a place to stay, they have food to eat and they have cars to drive around till they forgotten about the most basic principle of surviving.

    Yeah man… This is a fact of life lah.. It hurts but its true.. All we can pray for is that the rich are NOT snobbish, punk-ass, snotty, dumbass, think-they-are-so-all-that, insensitive pricks who deserve a major awakening so that they’ll take out their noses from the clouds in the sky and bring it down to earth… Well, if next time, u or anyone else might become successful leading to riches, then remember not to any of those above… its all good, dude… just be a good person!…
