Costly Living

Goods are expensive nowadays. Some small traders at the night market are not honest when selling perishable goods.I happen to buy 2 packets of nasi lemak @RM 1.20. The packet was loose,looked bigger but the contents less. On that same day I bought 1 packet of sweet corn at RM 3.00. But the trader willling to part 2 packets with RM 5.00. What make me irr was the prepacked sweet corn is exposed one side revealing the good part of the sweet corn and the other partion was not exposed. When I asked the trader to look into the whole piece of sweet corn the answer was tak boleh. I was certain the trader was trying to hide the bad portion of the sweet corn to me. Why this kind of tradersare still at large given licence to sell goods to the public.

I politely told him that he is lucky with me. If at all some picky house wifes were to shop there not the sweet corn but anything they pick will be quized,pinched,skin peeled ,tested whatever way they want to, before they buy worth their spending.

It is unethical to cheat or bluff the customers.At the end of the day the guilty consious ness on the part of the trader or traders will be accumalated over the years and one day realising or otherwise something bad befall upon them which would be very costly.

When will this kind of traders ever learn to be honest. Honesty in business is always rewarding over the years.

Accidents

Very sad hearing a girl is still in coma after the accident near Rawang a few days ago. when the authorities will put a stop. Drivers with summonses and warrant of arrest are still driving buses. I could not believe it the JPJ and the PDRM. What is happening with online monitoring system. Do they warm the chair not doing anything about the whole thing. I got a notice for speeding recently. The words in that notice are strong enough to drive me to traffic police department in Melaka first to settle the offence with compound RM 200/=. This drivers are just let loose just like that.

I wonder how many of this type of drivers still driving the buses day and night. The authorities must put a full stop before more passengers get hurt or get killed. No double standard and no compromise.

Indian men manning the cameras. Again the historic sight of Melaka will be in the world map plus may be my car. I pass by while the shooting take place.

Understanding Volunteers

Volunteers are an important component to make a program success. Sometimes The volunteers are neglected due to favouritisem of certain leaders of an organisation. it is very important to have good relationship with volunteers,whether they are experienced or otherwise. I believe the volunteers can help to make many programs a success. Trust and mutual understanding are the utmost elements the volunteers need to move on. I came across big events flop because of organisations impose unnecessary restrictions not relevent in social service. Have trust on them and build a good PR.
