the rakyat lose every turn

Now Rapid will take over the public transport system in Penang. Base on reports Rapid didnt do it too well in the city either. This is like a half baked cake to tell the children mommy made tasty cake come eat it all. Of course the children will come fearing the angry look of their mother.....Likewise in Penang will it be successful with Rapid? I think the authority should say what it means. All the times it is a half baked cake. Never go to the full wrath of the laws. No wonder the problems keep repeating every time. Look at the taxi drivers in Penang...they dont use the meters to ferry people. What do the authority do? Go under cover....no cancellation of licence or take the culprit to court...Nay...it is the weak delivery system....change government change mindset change the direction...Dont believe what the government says....the leaders dont understand their backyards clogged with rubbish, mosquitoes, potholes, thieving and robbery....I should say I am a strong supporter of BN but recent years I felt cheated with their policies and laws. I think I am not the only one here. One must go for change; one shouldnt feel scared of the new horizon, and if one doesnt try, one will not know in the end. It will be just dreams floating till the ground sinks....Now I read the BORR project was increased to $710 million from $410 million. Samy told the MPs in Parliament it was $410 million for the BORR project in Penang(Butterworth) now it had shot up to $710 million without informing the MPs in Parliament. No public viewing of contracts or it is under OSA again? NOw look at the toll agreements where the BN government must write to the companies requesting permission whether the agreements can be published to the public! Imagine the government has to write to the companies for permission to publish....and in the first place what clauses are disadvantaged to the government ultimately to the rakyat? This is the one sided contract and the losers are the rakyat. The BN government is really incompetent! Every agreement must be beneficial and advantageous to the rakyat not to the commercial enterprises...Damn!
