On This Monday Morning.

I would like to express my deepest sympathy to those stuck in a traffic condition so massive that its almost beyond belief, like those scenes you watch in movies where there's a catastrophe with everyone trying to escape. I was fortunate enough that the route I took was not that badly affected though a stalled car did cause some bottleneck.

Operation set up roadblocks at various prime roads and highways causing intolerable inconveniences to drivers not forgetting wasting precious fuel was deemed a success by the Prime Minister as well as the Police Force in preventing supposingly planned street protests/demonstrations. I wonder if they would be saying the same should I place them in the said congestion without having any police personnels paving the way for them.


Since the blocks were already planned, it got me wondering why was the public not informed prior to this, at least we could take an alternative route to avoid these unnecessary wastage, of time and resources. Or was I actually ignorant enough to have not noticed these announcements? Or was it to be kept a secret so that those planning to attend the demonstrations would not be aware of the blocks?

How much more of these random disasterous events do we still need to go through, none could tell. Let's hope that the time of realization arrives before its too late.
