Fabianyee, well said.For eg, whenever our govt decides to raise the price of certain things; they always come up with a comparison chart, showing we are the cheapest in the region, etc.. But does that make us any better? One of the comparisons was the monthly cost of our broadband usage. They said we were one of the cheapest compared with other countries. But they never told you that our broadband services is also one of the slowest, at 1mbps. Yawn! Excuse me, because other countries, comparatively, are racing towards 100mbps. Check it out for yourselves, guys.My main point here is if and when we decide to compare ourselves with other countries (funny how comparisons are not with the best of countries); and think that we are better than many others; we start becoming complacent.As a consolation, KL is far safer than Los Angeles downtown. I've been there, stayed for a while, too. Even the Americans will warn you to stay away from the city.</blockquote>
