somehow, i feel that we people should be grateful with we have in life. some people don't get what we have. some live in insecure place. been away to KL for a week plus. I experience many many things. good and bad. I too learnt a few lessons while staying there. I spoke to my cousin about life in KL. It was very different from we have here.
While our neighbourhood schools (not talking bout those independent) are becoming more like hotels, with multi-purpose school hall, theirs are just becoming like our schools in the 1980s. Being in big country, competition is fierce. places in good universities are quickly take up. my cousin told me that education is the only way to live a better life. like us here, barely with no education, somehow still living in his/her own apartment.
thier flats are seriously needed of a make over. cracks were seen everywhere. poor living conditions. roads not maintained. here in singapore, people will complain even though it's a slight bump. but the bump there is way worse than the hump. people tend to run red lights. one of the reasons why accidents happen frequently. on my way to KL, on the highway, i witness around 3 crashes. from the way i see it, help come really late.
there, crime rate is way up till I too witness it myself. The motorcyclist and it's rider in baju kurong (after friday prayers) ride slowly to this auntie and poof, they went off with her handbag. just like that. don't judge a book by its cover they say. i pity that auntie. it's not that Singapore has no crime, it's just that catching criminals in KL makes it hard. plus, bribe are often there.
While us here in Singapore, blessed with workers helping to clean up our 'shit', they have nothing there. the central district of KL even though central, it's still dirty and littered. That's only the central, how bout the housings located elsewhere? yes, it's much worse. still, us here, even our housing estate are like hotels.
my cousin brought us to the red light district in KL (we were bored that night!). the no. of men is more to those of girl. Men, i mean men as in gays. im nt anti-gay. I even made friend with a gay (my cousin's friend). They are really pityful people who are 'lost'. I do get the eriee feeling when I with them but i don't discriminate them. It's just thier way of thinking. However, as much as possible, i will want to tell them that god made them into human beings with the gender men. so don't just act, be one. anyway, stuff like that kind rarely happen here.
so yeah, in the end, i feel really grateful to live in a secure and clean place in singapore.
anyway, KL was fucking great! haha!
