Do first, think later

Unlike good infrastructure planning as shown by Singapore, Malaysia way of doing things, typically do first and think later.
Here comes another good example. First, we built the first Low Cost Carrier Terminal (LCCT) in SEA, then only comes to think of the railway connecting the LCCT to the main terminal of the KL International Airport.
Currently, passengers travelling between LCCT and main terminal via the bus service provided. Upon the completion, according to Deputy Prime Minister Najib Tun Razak, the journey would take only 11 minutes instead of 20 minutes on bus.
Apparently, the inconvenience caused is in a great mess, especially oversea inbound travellers who intend to reach domestic destinations via low cost carrier or vice-versa.
However, having said that, we need to compliment the Cabinet Committee on Public Transport and DPM for the inititiative. It’s better to rectify the flaw now rather than causing the country a punitive setback, especially when Visit Malaysia Year 2007 is around the corner.
We can’t afford to miss it this time.

"Do first, think later" is better than "Say first, forget later"(common lah, from BN politicians mouth).

I disagree with you, Steve.
It is "Say First, then Claim Being Misquoted Later".

[…] Simultaneously, another interesting question to every decision maker that had or going to have their says in this coming expansion plan: Is there a proper planning in place prior to the construction of LCCT? Or does that imply the typical "do first think later" habitual thinking of, I mean Malaysians? […]
