A Chilean miracle!
33 miners were rescued successfully after two months ordeal being trapped 700 meters underground. The whole country, led by the president, rejoiced and thank God for the successful operation that saved 33 precious lives. The whole nation fought a courageous battle and won. Life is precious.
In Malaysia, 12 lives just lost in seconds without a fight on the night of 10-10-2010 in a bus-cars-bus accident.
智利的奇迹。
33位煤矿工人，因矿崩而被困大约七百米的地下69天后，终于成功的被救了出来。整个国家，在总统的带领下，举国欢欣，感谢天主的保佑，拯救工作得于完成，33条宝贵的生命能够保住。智利全国心连心打了一场胜仗。生命是珍贵的。
在马来西亚，12条生命，却在毫无挣扎的情况下，在十月十日晚上，瞬间消失。（继续在下端）
On North South Expressway, a speeding bus banged into the back of a car, lost control and rammed through the guardrail, ploughed head on to a bus, two cars and a motor cycle from opposite direction. It resulted 12 persons, including the bus driver, died on the scene and 38 other injured.
Thank God for our efficient emergency rescue system that swung into action immediately to save lives. And no thanks to the idiot ministers and officials who showed "kind concern and care" to the victims and families. Transport Minister even went to the scene for inspection.
As always after a serious accident, blame game started all over again immediately too.
" a thorough investigation would be carried out..." ( we are very concern)
"whoever responsible would be punished..." (the government will take action)
" need to review the current policy..." (add in more gadgets..more money into pockets)
" the guardrail meets quality standard..." ( don't blame on us - the Highway authority)
"should limit the speed.." (slower speed will avoid accident)
"the accident was due to human error.." ( so don't blame anyone else except the driver)
Many blamed the driver, some blamed the bus company, others blamed lacking of enforcement.
But no one blames it on CORRUPTION!
Our highways are of utmost high standard in term of quality and safety. The buses on our highways are bigger, more comfortable and safer with new technology and innovations.
So the drivers are driving faster and faster .... it occurs almost daily that while I am driving at 110 km/hour on expressway, buses overtake me effortlessly on my left and right whichever they like. They are speeding - at 120 to 130 km/hr.
A Police or JPJ patrol car can easily book 30 bus drivers a day for various offences, especially reckless driving like driving on the overtaking fast lane, dangerous overtaking, using hand phone while driving...).. if only the Police or JPJ wants to.
However, the drivers are not afraid of the Police or JPJ (Transport Department) or speed trap because all offences can be Kaotim (settled) with a handshake (exchange of money) and a smile.
Corruption breeds drivers with throttle happy attitude. They are driving faster and faster ...
As for the ministers and government officers, especially from the Transport Ministry whose duties are to save lives and property, they go back to their offices, with big asses sitting on the big fat chairs, things back to normal again after a few days ... until next accident happens .... again the usual rhetoric routine .....
在南北大道，一辆载客巴士，因超车有超速，撞到一辆前面的车后方而失控，再撞过路中央的防撞围干，和对面方向的一辆巴士，两辆汽车及一辆摩多车相撞，造成12人死亡，另38人受伤。
感谢我们的紧急拯救人员即刻的行动，到场抢救。但不谢那些空喊口号放话的部长及政府官员，他们也向伤者及家人表示关心和慰问。交通部部长还亲身到现场巡视呢。
如以往严重车祸发生后一样，互相推卸责任的行动，马上就出现了。
“我们将会做出详细的调查。。”（我们-政府-很关心）
“那些犯错的将会面对严重的处罚。。” （我们将采取行动）
“将会检讨目前的政策。。” （将有新的东西出炉，我们袋子将会入水）
“路中央的围杆是达到水准的。。” （我们不需负任何责任 -南北大道公司）
“应该降低法定的时速。。” （放慢了就会减少意外）
“应该是人为的因素。。。” （全都是司机的错，不要怪罪其他任何人）。
有些人把责任放在司机身上，有些怪巴士公司，有些则认为是执法不够严厉。
但没有人怪罪在
贪污！
我国的公路，在品质及安全上，都是高水准的。大道上的巴士，因科技的进步，都是更大，更舒服及更安全的。
所以巴士司机也就越驾越快。几乎每一天，当我在高速公路以时速每小时一百一十公路行驶时，很多巴士以毫不费劲的，从左或右超越我的车，就看司机的喜好。等于说他们的时速是120 或130公里以上。
一辆警方或交通部的巡逻车，每天毫不费力的就可以抓到30位巴士司机，违反各种的交通规例，如在快速的越车道行驶，危险超车，驾车时使用手机等。。。只有他们愿意！
不过巴士司机也不会害怕警察或交通部执法人员，。因为假如被抓，任何事情都可以『定』。。。一个握手（交换贿赂）及一个微笑而已。
贪污养成了驾快车的态度及习惯。。毫无忌惮。贪污是罪魁祸首。
而那些部长及政府官员，特别是交通部官员，他们的职责及工作就是保护生命及财产，但他们回到各自的办公室，坐上大椅子后，把一切都丢到脑后。经过几天，一切平静，回复正常，一直到另一起严重的车祸发生，又再启动“做戏般的动作。。。
而直到那时，现在还是
黑色蓝色的生意照常。。。
