Check and Balance

Since early 2007, our country has been hit by serious flooding. Many lives were lost and loads of damage were seen. This is a serious issue as we are not that much of a wealthy country. This must be taken into account as everything needs money. 

When I watch Buletin Utama just now, I was kinda dissapointed with the effort made by government to tackle the issue. You see, Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said that they have prepared a lot (read the NST or watch Nightline to get the full detail) if the flood hits our country. Okay, here's the deal. We're preparing millions of Ringgit to cure the problem that occur every year, and it keeps on happening over and over again. Why not we cure the cause of the problem? Do something about the floods! Not the damage done by it!

You can always deepened or widened the rivers, improve the drainage or whatever. Do anything, at least try to make it better. Don't you agree that we need to closed the pit rather than to avoid it? Maybe it's time that the government think rationally about this..
