I have been here for 4 days and I can conclude that, here, everything is being carried out in a very slow pace.

Traffic is so smooth until I forgot that I was already in the town. Zebra crossing lanes are so much respected by citizens here to an extend that, drivers stop to allow pedestrians to cross over, even they were only to be seen standing by the roadside. I didn’t realise it until a guy stared at me with his absolutely shocking expression when I sped by him.

Since then, I pretended to be a Brunei-an by waving someone from trunk to slot ahead of me. I hope with this little "act", I might discipline myself while I’m driving here. Or maybe, to save my arse from getting summon with the name of "not allowing pedestrian to cross-over zebra lane". This, I believe will cause a big joke if it’s to be made known among the KL communities.

Not only that, there is so many parking spaces allocated, everywhere anywhere. And again, the part worth mentioning is that, it’s FREE. It’s kind of a "luxury" which is no-where to be found in KL.

Come to this point, you must make yourself understand that, it’s not that I’m undermining myself as a Malaysian, but really, I see some real good values here, which I hope every Malaysian must practise. You have the choice to oblige yourself by giving away good excuses that "Brunei is a small country lah", "Brunei-an not competitive enough lah" and etc etc. But you can never deny the fact that, we lose good value that we’re suppose to preserve.

This, is definitely a heavy opportunity price to pay for.
