More Tariff Hike ?

More Tariff Hike ?

The price hike for petrol is here to stay. The bittered pills have been swallowed. As usual, Malaysians will have to live with it and life go on....
Now, let's prepare ourselves for another shocks ! Tenaga Nasional Berhad ( TNB ), the national electricity supplier has submitted request to the government to hike the tariffs by more than 10%. Part of the reason for this price hike request is, the utility company has considerable debts, and has been unable to generate enough cash from business operations to cover its spending. It also state that Malaysia has the lowest electricity tariffs in the region. So ? Aren't we Malaysian very lucky ? Look like I have to buy a few more kerosense lamps to save on electricity ! so, why not arguing on the point that Malaysian has one of the lowest per capital income in the world ? Can the Government put money into our pocket from petroleum royalties to raise our per capital income ? Bolih ka ?
When the cock talks, should the chicken listens ? The proper protocol is, when the big cock talk, the small cock listen. When the small cock talk, the chicken listen. Or was it really the cock talking cocks cocks ? No wonder there are so many cocked face cocks cocking cock languages in the cocking farms in Malaysia.... Come to think of it, even the cocks ( big and small ) are suffering from cocking Avian flu.........

Telekom Malaysia Berhad ( TMB ), you cocking next ?
Syarikat Bekalan Air Selangor ( SYABAS), you cocking next ?
Let's all pray to GOD that they don't increase the price of my favorite Hainanese Cockffee, sorry, coffee ( It is called Kopi-O-cock-cock ).

No problem in Taiping. Well they do not need tap water as they can collect fresh sky juice in drums for free year round in beautiful Taiping
