I guess (and I think everyone will think the same thing), this is again another job which was done poorly by contractor (or sub sub sub contractor) with a huge portion of the fund missing?

Furious over frequent dry taps, some National Service (NS) trainees boycotted the training session at the White Resort Camp here.

A parent said, according to her son, there was no water in the bathrooms and toilets about two weeks ago…

Camp commandant Mej Rahidin Jalil said the management was addressing the water problems. He claimed that it was due to the current hot spell….

Penang Water Authority (PBAPP) corporate affairs manager K. Jeyabalan denied Mej Rahidin?s claims, saying the source of the water woes was a 25mm pipe which supplied water to the camp from the Bukit Genting reservoir.

?This pipe is only sufficient for a household. We have asked them to install a 150mm pipe but this was not done.

The Camp commandant trying to cover up a job which was poorly done? No surprise there.

I have waited for my Citibank credit card statement for the last 6 days. It just never arrive.

Out of frustration, I called the Citibank helpline.

He cordially answered: Oh. There was a problem with our system. It could not generate the statement for you.

I was furious: And you will still charge me a fee for overdue, even if your system could not generate the statement?

He remained silent.

Why are we always on the losing end?

On my trip to Kuantan during the Chinese New Year, instead of the Teluk Cempedak , I went to explore a relatively secluded beach.

Unlike the more popular beach, here you could still see plenty of such crabs hurrying around.

Me and son spent some time in the Toys section, while wife was in Clothes section (of Giant Hypermarket).

I got bored and we decided to look for wife. When we were walking around, son said grudgingly:

“I told you to bring along the GPS unit!”

I was stunned, and asked: Why would we need a GPS unit in here?

Son looked at me (as if I am an imbecile with no hope of understanding any technology) and berated: TV showed that we can use GPS unit to pinpoint the exact location of anyone. We would not need to walk around to look for mummy!

My oh my. Has human regress so badly that we need a GPS unit to locate lost soul in Clothing section which takes up all of the 2 aisles? Sigh.
