A below par broadband quality in Malaysia
“Malaysia Boleh!!” ….you did it again to be one of the below par broadband quality study done by Oxford University. Congratulation….Thanks to TM-Streamyx as the long existence monopoly of the country. Why is the broadband speed so slow?
Malaysia is listed in the same category deemed as BELOW TODAY’S APPLICATION THRESHOLD…what a shame. It is the same category with United Arab Emirates, Philippines, Pakistan, Morocco, Vietnam and Indonesia. Even countries as large as China, Malta, Brazil and Thailand beat us! Slow internet speed means slow productivity and it will hinder foreign investment into the country. Source malaysiainsider.
We observe our friendly neighbour Singapore which is listed as having Internet speeds of meeting today’s technology. It seem that we are too egoistic to learn from our neighbours in every aspect. We can see that Malaysia Boleh is just an empty vessel anyway?
Another issue is the increasing crime rate in Malaysia~! I wonder what are our police doing? I think they are more interested in seeking for “nice spot” to trap people from speeding, catching people doing illegal U-turn, drinking tea, finding fault of opposition reps, but not catching thieves…
Malaysia Boleh again…
I think when you ask 10 Malaysian, 8 of them will reply they encounter or nearly encounter a snatch thief incident. Just recently, even in a Mamak Stall (So called Indian Muslim owned Night Cafe stall), robbers are so brave that they come in four of two motorcycles and robbed the owner in front of all of us. They even beat and threaten the owner with knife in from of so many people. Again, why are they so brave? Is this Malaysia or another underdeveloping country? I wonder….
I think it is time for us to put down our ego and improve……stop the attitude of pursuing worthless NO.1 award whereby it always end up short term!
