السلام عليكم
Just finished
my Arabic class in ABC. Got a glimpse of today’s headline at the kiosk
downstairs.
CAJ 6%
DITANGGUH.
Alhamdulillah.
Kalau boleh tak payah ade langsung. Kan senang. Why do they need to increase
the charge? I thought they had made millions of profits already. Please don’t
be greedy. Cukup-cukup la dengan harga barang lain yang dah naik -.-'
If, IF LA
dyorang TAK cukup sangat duit. Anak dyorg tujuh-tujuh nak pakai Blackberry, AT
LEAST 1-2% naik ke OK la gak. Ni tidak. Terus ENAM PERATUS. That’s too much. If
we buy top up RM 10, we have to pay additional charge of 60 cents. That’s only
for a week. Next week another 60 cents. One month 240 cents. One year 2880
cents.
Itu untuk seorang pengguna, di Malaysia ada berape juta pengguna? Bertambah
kaya la dyorang. Boleh laa beli iPad pulak untuk anak dyorang sorang satu, and maybe
satu kat bilik tidur, kat living room, kat dining room, kat dapur, kat toilet
skali satu kan? >:(
Kids nowadays
are so lucky. Even a 5-year-old kid can get an iPad to play Angry Bird (true
story). Untung laa. When I was 5 years old I only play Barbie doll. Itu pon tak
berani nak mintak Mama beli baju Barbie yang mahal-mahal th. Thank God my Bibik
was good at sewing. She taught me how to sew my own Barbie dolls’ clothes. Yup,
I designed and tailored by my own when I was in my primary school. It was more
satisfying. They were not as pretty, prim and proper like Mattel’s designed
clothes, but they were wearable. It’s not like my Barbie would complain or
anything.hahah
A scenario
which I had seen a few weeks before Ramadhan was quite pleasing but worrying. I
was spending my time with my lovely Mama at Jalan Tunku Abdul Rahman and then
headed to Sogo, a famous shopping complex there.
I still
remember when I was still a kid, NO ONE had the guts to even lay an eyes on the
building. Things there were TOO branded and pricey. In my early teen years,
only FEW had successfully step a feet in there. NOWADAYS, it was chock-a-block
with shoppers. Bak kata orang Melayu, macam TIN SARDIN.heheh You even have to wait in a LONGG que to pay for the items.
I don’t
think that the price had become cheaper pon. OK, it is cheaper when there’s sale. Yet,
the goods are still not ten ringgit cheap, and people are still buying it. This
shows that Malaysian nowadays CAN afford to have a good time shopping in Sogo,
buying branded-and-not-so-cheap items.
Malaysians
are getting richer? Expensive things are more affordable now? Or more credit
cards are being used? More debts?
I am no economist.
But, all these matters are to be seen through carefully. An apple might be
seen crisp and ripe red on the outside but might have rotten in the inside :/
Spending is very much encourage in Islam, but not till we waste. It is a normal sight today for someone to have their own DSLR. I'm not saying that having a DSLR is a bad thing just that DO they even know how to use it properly? ME, myself don't have that much knowledge of using DSLR. That's why I don't buy it YET.hehe Isn't it's a waste to buy something you don't even know how to use?
Yeah, some piece of my mind about the
current issues.
Sorry if I had offended certain parties.
It's for your own good ;)
Haa, let's puasa enam yah?
It's only 6 days ,
Syawal is wearing out.
You better hurry.
Wassalam :)
