The one where i lost my shimmies

The increase in the oil price will be such a burden especially for little fishies like me who are "bergaji kecik".
I know the government is trying to supposedly reduce the pain with all the transportation rebates but fak i dont see how any of that is going to cover back the cost of filling up my tank every week. Imagine a 1000cc small car like mine needs a whopping SEMBILAN PULUH HENGGET for a full tank! *pengsan*
I might need to start learning to cycle to work these days.

Further more, the government is expecting the rakyat to change our lifestyles and for example to use the public transport more. But until i can walk 100 metres to the nearest LRT/Commuter Station,then only are they allowed to say that! They are asking us to use the public transport as if it is convenient enough or modern enough , like in the developed countries where it is not a necessity to own a car.
I have lived in an environment where i can commute hundreds of miles without entering a single car so I KNOW IT IS DAMN POSSIBLE to do so. I mean i have actually thought about this, and considered taking the KTM Komuter and LRT.. but for goodness sake to actually take the commuter, someone still has to send me in a friggin CAR!
Okey! I understand that it is crucial that the oil price should be increased with the increase in oil prices globally (which also means everything else will also increase in price!) but i think the least the government can do is to do something about our public transport so that it is more convenient for those who now have to "change lifestyles" and take public transportation.

I know.. so emo. But you'd be emo too if you had to go through the jam-seluruh-dunia, last night.
