Quit complaining and do your bit


AFTER the end of the long Raya weekend, Malaysians who are on social media will surely come across viral photos of traffic snaking along the highways. Among the photos that were most shared were those at the Karak Highway, KL-bound from the east coast.

Let’s address the elephant in the room: The traffic jam during the Raya break cannot be attributed to work alone. I’d go out on a limb and say many of those stuck in the bumper-to-bumper crawl on highways after the Raya holidays were those who flouted the interstate travel ban to celebrate the festival in their kampung.
