KL Rush Hour (In First Person View)KL Rush Hour (In First Person View)

One thing I never know…KL is such a jam place especially in the morning rush hour
I have 3 days training in Oracle Malaysia in Menara Citibank.
The first day, I woke up a little too late and I was greeted by the traffic in the morning
Terrible jam just after exit from the Subang Jaya toll towards the Kuala Lumpur direction
This is bad, I mean really bad…because I was driving MyVi in manual gear
You got to be kidding me, I won’t drive in such traffic jam condition into the heart of KL city.
So I plan to drive to Amcorp Mall, Taman Jaya and take a ride on the LRT.Clever huh
But I was wrong for not knowing the term Lousy Railway Transit…or the so called LRT.
Packed with people in the queue, and packed with people in the coming LRT
I check my watch…wait…I don’t have any watch and just check the time on my iPhone.
I am damn late…
You know what Sotong is? Say with me S-O-T-O-N-G…yeah, Sotong
What is the feeling of being Sotong? Take a LRT in every 8.30am in the morning…you will know you and everyone is just a Sotong.
Squeezing each other…some try to read books….some try to read newspaper…some chit chatting and let all the world know what they are talking
Enjoy the ride and pray that no one will fart
2 years since my last training with Oracle to update my Oracle skills…
Never mind, I wouldn’t like to talk much on this…
During my lunch time in the 28th floor of Menara Citibank building, suddenly my minds popped on what if I was offered a job here…
I wouldn’t want to think about that…this is crazy.
Real crazy that I spend 1.5 hours to travel here from Klang
One thing I notice that, KL people didn’t talk much during the rush hour…
When I am tailing the people from behind, I can see what they are thinking.
“Escape the jam”…”What’s the time now”…and “Blah Blah Blah”
I also join them in the rush hour show, pretend to be really rush…I run out from Menara Citibank till the Ampang Park LRT station
And just before the LRT closing the door, I just manage to slip through by squeezing out all the air from my tummy
Yeah…I deserve myself a clap, though there’s no point for me doing this.
Just a fun to balance my life in KL…
As you see, the story never ends for the rush hour jam…
I passed this 3 days in pain on my leg…cause stepping too much on my MyVi clutch
Guess that I will go to KL not for work but for only…CLUBBING

March 5, 2009 3:17 amTry taking NKVE, exit at Damansara, then head towards Jln. Duta, then Jln. Tun Razak, then head towards Jln. Ampang…
Or another alternative, take Federal Hiway, exit at Subang, go towards Sunway Pyramid, take the NPE, after 2nd NPE Toll (used to be 1 there i think), head towards Sg. Besi Highway, then take SMART tunnel (just make sure dun go in during flood!), and exit at Jln Tun Razak and head towards Jln. Ampang. Voila! Menara Citibank!
But KL is crazy traffic wan lah…that i agree!

Purple, good to hear you can jalan kaki to your office now.
Kenny, hahaha…you are real Jason Bourne. Know how to escape from jam…I pretty agreed on the SMART tunnel advice. Now I have to think twice before drive into Kl city when rain.
Actually nowadays I got no time to blog. I only have weekend to write as much as I want to talk for all my topic in the week. This happens few weeks ago on the jam part, but still worth it for the Oracle training in the end. Hahaha
@Jayce I prefer roti canai from the local too. But...

That’s coming from Subang… not every place is as bad as federal highway. I still prefer to work in KL. Haha! But now it only takes me 10 minutes to travel to work. Heheheh!
