Can A Family Man With Salary RM3,000 Survive In Malaysia .....!?

 
Can a family man with Salary RM3,000 survive in Malaysia ?
 
Let's do some simple calculations here. 
  
In Malaysia , the average family income is RM3,000 /month 
(where father works, mother doesn't). 
  
I understand there are many families whose 
monthly income does not reach RM3,000, 
but, to make things simple, 
let's take RM3,000 as the figure. Ok lah, right? 
  
Okay, let's start rolling with a family which has 
Papa, Mama, 1 daughter and 1 son. Ngam-ngam .... 
  
Calculation starts... 
  
Electricity and water bill: RM100 
(No air-con, No home theatre, No water heater ... ok?) 
  
Phone bill ( Telekom): RM100 
  
Meals for a happy family: RM775 
(3 meals on RM25/day, RM25 for 4 persons...?) 
  
Papa makan / teh-tarik during working hrs: RM155 
(RM5/day, RM5 .. can eat what?) 
  
Car repayment: RM400 
(A proton saga aeroback, 7 yrs repayment) 
  
Petrol (living in city, traffic-jam): RM300 
(go to work, bring son to school, 
only can afford one car running) 
  
Insurance: RM650 
(kids, wife and myself) 
  
House repayment: RM750 
(low cost housing repayment for 30 yrs, 
retired still have to work to pay!) 
  
Tuition: RM80 
(got that cheap meh? i don't think so) 
  
Older children pocket money @ school: RM20 
(RM1/day, eat bread?) 
  
School fees: RM30 
(enough ah?) 
  
School books and etc: RM100 
(always got extra to pay in school) 
  
Younger children milk powder: RM50 
(cannot have the DHA, BHA, PHA one, expensive) 
  
Miscellaneous: RM100 
(shampoo, rice, sauce, toilet paper) 
  
Oh wait!!! I have to stop here, so... 

No Astro,

no internet

no movie @ cinema, 

no DVD, 

no CD, 

cannot KFC, 

cannot McDonald, 

cannot go Park walk during weekend (petrol expensive), 

no chit chat on phone with grandparents, and etc... 
  
Let's use a calculator to total up... WALAO EH! Shit! RM3,610 already... 
  
EPF belum potong, income tax lagi........oledi RM3,610 .... 
  
How to survive lah tuan-tuan dan puan-puan sekalian ??? 
  
Our Deputy Prime Minister asked us to change lifestyle? 
  
How to change? Don't eat? Don't work? Don't send children to school and study? 
 
Besides that, I believe in Malaysia population, there are millions of rakyat Malaysia which still don't earn RM3,000/month!!! 
 
What is this? Inilah Malaysia Boleh... Sorry ... it should be Malaysians Boleh , because we're still alive and kicking!! 
   
  

Please  comment boleh or tak boleh.

no wonder ah long is getting more and more =_=

TAXI IN KL, BE CAREFUL

On Saturday, 16th, at 6:45pm there was a girl aboarded a taxi at the Wangsa Maju LRT to return home. At the end of the road, the taxi driver stopped to pick up another passenger (male) who seemed to be going off the same direction. Well, the girl didn't suspect anything funny as they looked genuine, and he was going her direction and she was in a hurry. Little did she suspect that she was in for a huge trauma! But when she asked the taxi driver to turn into the junction where she lives, the driver pretended to miss it and the male passenger said that since they were already nearer to his place, why not send him off first and the driver politely asked my sister if that's ok and she thought she was doing a good deed! As soon as they got to the end of the housing area next to the big walls of the Academy TV3, the male passenger, locked all the doors and leapt to the back and held a knife at her throat and forced her to bend her head down - she had to give up her jewelry, and the $200 cash she had. Not satisfied with only that much, they threatened for more so they drove off to Maybank Jln Setapak and took out everything she had that was around 7:30pm ....The driver returned the card after clearing the account ! Then they drove off to the back area of Tasik Titiwangsa and dropped her off there. Left her with only $10 and ask her! to take another taxi home! she had to walk a long way back to the main road to get help and she is really traumatised by all these. Later at the police station she found out that she was not the victim that same day! Let's remind everyone we know, as it could easily happen to us too or to anyone we care about.

The lesson to be learnt here:
1. always check the plate # BEFORE you board a taxi.
2. always check the other things that a taxi should have - the driver's ID, the inside number etc etc
3. NEVER allow the driver to pick up another passenger - No matter what! If they do, get off and just pay the man
4. avoid taking the taxi alone, if you can.
5. be careful if it is after office hours.

电梯往下坠时要做什么保命?

刚刚在EMAIL看到這個資訊息,觉得很重要,想讓大家都知道,以防萬一。是关于搭乘電梯遇上了電梯突然斷電,雖然緊急供電系統幾秒後就開始作用, 可是電梯還是從 13 樓迅速往下墬。還好當時記起曾經看過電視教的, 趕快把每一層樓的按鍵都按下,好在電梯在五樓終於停止了 ,॥ 真的有 撿回一條命的感覺!




當你面臨生死一線間時,當下的你所做的每一個動作將決定你的生死與否。生活 中,難免會坐到電梯,但是!萬一遇到電梯發生事故,迅速往下墜落時,你可能只有一個念頭 :「站在電梯裡準死定了!....
到底在電梯下墜時如何保護自己呢

第一、 ( 不論有幾層樓 ) 趕快把每一層樓的按鍵都按下。 -- 是當緊急電源啟動時,電梯可以馬上停止繼續下墜。


第二、如果電梯有手把 ,一隻手緊握手把。 -- 是為了要固定你人所在的位子,以致於你不會因為重心不穩而摔傷。


第三、整個背部跟頭部緊貼電梯內牆,呈一直線。 -- 是為了要運用電梯牆壁作為脊椎的防護。


第四、膝蓋呈彎曲姿勢。 說明:因為電梯下墜時,你不會知道它會何時著地,且墜落時很可能會全身骨折而死。-- 是最重要的是因為韌帶是唯一人體富含彈性的一個組織,所以借用膝蓋彎曲來承受重擊壓力,比骨頭來承受壓力來的大。
