The Devil Is Saving Mother Nature


i recently received an email about a petition on saving Mother Nature. titled specifically "Protect Klang Gates Quartz Ridge and Selangor State Park from the proposed KL Outer Ring Road (KLORR)", it's no surprise to me that the government is scheming for another concrete project and the victim as usual is Mother Earth. Malaysia - being a concrete jungle - is booming. no doubt about that. but really think about this; do you think that our traffic chaos would be any better with larger, bigger and wider highways / expressways / freeways? ok, freeways would be a long shot but come on, the problem lies in the amount of cars we have in this country. we have enough highways and expressways that bottlenecks at the end. so what is the point? we already had a "terrific" Works Minister and the result is more congestions. ever thought about selling less cars? or heck, making less national cars? have they forgotten of the all important public transport? seriously, i think many would rather get stuck in the jam in the comfort of their car instead of a sardine-packed bus. now who wouldnt, right?
so save some trees, instead of modernizing our country to the brim. come on, even the devil is on our side! 



NEED GREEN!
we need you!
