Later we talked a bit on the highway new U-turn from the Sunway Summit that causing the bad traffic jam. And our journey is smooth and "mulus". Then he told me that he's staying on the green Block C of the infamous OUG Parklane where last time I got so many many "mapren" aka negro riders. Nowadays it's hard to see them. Maybe they've been deported home.

Later at night, I drove to Senai airport to pickup my son who just arrived from Kuching.

I DIDN'T COUNT THE MONEY
Tuesday, 15 January 2019.
6.46am, CHB an Indian boy with his grandma at Rose Apartment sendinn to PPUM (Hospital UM). At the entrance guard post, I turned back my cab and stopped infront of the entrance. The boy came in the cab leaving his grandma behind with her stick. The old woman walked akwardly to my cab and I felt pity and came down to help her in. Later I asked the boy why he didnt help his grandma and he only smiled. I reckon that the old lady like to talk, but since we not knowing each other yet, so we just kept quiet all the way to the hospital. At the last traffic light then she talked a bit about how bad the government hospital staff service treated the patients, especially the old people like her. I just nodded and agreed. "Ituhari penah saya datang naik bas. Dengan jem lagi, sampai sudah pukul 10. Nombor sudah habis. Dia orang suruh saya balik!" she talked like an angry old mom. "Dulu penah jugak bila sampai diaorang suruh saya terus mau check darah! Saya belum sarapan belum makan pagi lagi!" Actually she came for her eyes' checkup since she already completed her eye operations few weeks ago. The boy is an OKU and he's not going to school today to accompany her.
At 8.02am, I got ping from nearby Brunsfield Riverview Condom going to Giant Shah Alam for rm8 (high fare). But I ignored it.
8.03am, SAG an Indian young man at nearby Prima U1 Seri Hijauan Condom going to Jalan Opera C U2/C Taman TTDI Jaya. The distance is about 3km, but the fare is quite high, ie rm13. So I take him. The traffic jam is quite bad, but there's a traffic police controlling it, so it's not a big problem. At the dropoff, he give one ringgit notes which I dont count them. So I put the money to the center compartment under my left arm. Then after he open the door, suddenly he gave me another ringgit. "Tadi tak cukuplah bang, dua belas ringgit je," he said while looking at me. I said no worries and I took the money.
=================
After work ...
JAX at MiCare Jalan Astaka U8/84 Bukit Jelutong going to Sunway Clio Hotel. When I arrived at the company gate, I just parked outside. She asked me to go to the inside lobby. There's no signage or direction to which lobby. "I'm with a luggage," so I drive to the back lobby. I saw the amoi with a pink big wheel baggage.

Dear diary, this is a Grab driver story I copy-paste from whatsap group. Not sure if it's true or not.
Hari ni dalam sajarah...
Pertama kali aku naik grab, sembang dengan driver sampai driver menangis. Allahu Akbar...
Siang tadi aku pi KL sat atas urusan kerja. Sampai Airport Subang, macam biasa book grab utk ke tempat meeting. Memandangkan aku sampai Subang kol 12.20tgh hari, so aku terus book grab ke Masjid Saidina Abu Bakar As-Sidiq, Bangsar utk solat Jumaat...
Driver grab ni seorang lelaki Melayu dalam lingkungan pertengahan 50an. Orangnya smart, bila mula bersembang aku dapat simpulkan dia ni educated dan knowledgeable dalam business & corporate world...
Bila dia sembang bab meniaga, korporat aku pun tokok tambah apa yg patut. Asalnya sekadar layan ja apa yg dia sembang sementara nak sampai ke destinasi...
Tiba2 dia bgtau kisah silam dia. Dia ni rupanya seorang bergelar "Datuk" dari Kerteh. Dulu dia seorang jutawan. Bisnes buat pelantar minyak dan kerja2 yang berkaitan oil & gas industry...
Masa kaya, akaun bank ada berjuta-juta. Apa anak isteri nak semua dia belikan. Katanya sekali supply besi utk binaan pelantar minyak kurang2 pun dalam RM15-20 juta...
Kereta mewah ada 5 buah. Rumah banglo ada di Pahang, Terengganu & KL. Anak 3 orang dan seorang isteri...
Tahun 2016, Allah uji dia dan keluarga dia. Dengan sekelip mata dia jatuh susah. Bisnes dia tak menjadi. Dah supply barang dan buat kerja payment tak dapat, rakan meniaga pulak tipu, supplier cari mintak payment, bank hantar notis saman sebab tak bayar loan dan macam2 lagi...
Kemuncaknya semua harta terpaksa dijual dan dilelong. Dia ada ambik lawyer untuk lawan tuntut bayaran dari pihak yg berhutang dengan dia, tapi kes bertahun tak selesai juga. Legal fee dan lebih RM100k. Akhirnya dia tak teruskan kes sebab xdak duit nak bayar legal fee...
Disebabkan habuk pun tak ada, akhirnya isteri dia minta cerai. Isteri kahwin lain dan anak2 ikut isteri. Sampai tahun lepas anak lelaki sulung dia kahwin pun, dia langsung tak dijemput. Kiranya hubungan dengan isteri dan anak2 terus terputus sejak jatuh miskin...
Katanya lagi hidup dia kini kosong. Isteri sendiri dan anak2 pun boleh lari. Kaum keluarga dan kawan2 apatah lagi. Pada mulanya dia pernah minta bantuan ahli keluarga, tapi dihalau. Minta bantuan rakan, semua melarikan diri. Nak hutang dengan bank, bank reject...
Masa bagitau kisah family dia, dia mula menangis especially bila dia cerita tentang kegagalan dia mendidik isteri dan anak2. Dia cuma mampu bagi duit tapi bukan kasih sayang, didikan dan mengajak ke jalan Allah...
Perkara yang paling dia tak sangka dalam hidup, seorang isteri yang selama ini hidup bersama dengan dia lebih dari 20 tahun waktu senang boleh tinggalkan dia kerana kemiskinan. Anak kandung tak mengaku dia ayah. Keluarga sanggup buang dia sedangkan suatu ketika dulu apa yang ahli keluarga dan saudara mara dia nak, dia bagi..
Sekarang ni harta yang dia ada cumalah sebuah kereta Produa Axia untuk buat grab. Untuk berteduh, dia cuma menyewa bilik RM200 sebulan di area Ara Damansara. Rutin hidup dia, bangun bawa grab dan pulang rehat di bilik sewa. Makan di warung atau kedai mamak. Pernah ketika tengah makan dia ternampak rakan lama bergelar Datuk juga, kelam kabut dia sembunyi sebab malu. Pernah juga beberapa kali nak ambik passanger di Airport Subang. Bila dah dekat, rupanya orang yang dia kenali maka terus dia memecut laju dan cancel trip. Semuanya kerana malu dan terasa dirinya terlalu hina. Hidup dia sangat kosong. Segalanya tiada. Katanya, "Kalau bukan Islam jadi macam saya, confirm dah terus bangunan atau bunuh diri. Nasib baik saya tak sampai ke tahap itu"...
Dia kata kat aku, "Saya tak tahu sebab apa. Tapi encik ni macam ada aura yang menyebabkan saya kongsi semua ni. Encik customer pertama saya yang saya kongsikan kisah hidup saya. Saya bukan minta simpati, cuma sekadar berkongsi pengalaman hidup. Encik masih muda. Manalah tahu kalau encik kaya suatu hari nanti, jangan jadi macam saya. Silap saya, saya bela bini dan anak2 dengan duit tapi bukan dengan didikan agama dan kasih sayang. Itu yang dia orang tak pedulikan saya"..
Nak cerita panjang lagi. Cuma dipendekkan
cerita, kata2 aku kat dia, "Saya tak tahu nak kata apa. Cuma saya doakan Allah bagi kekuatan kat Abang utk teruskan kelangsungan hidup Abang. Allah sebenarnya sayang Abang. Dia uji Abang dengan kesusahan supaya boleh kembali kepada Dia. Kalau Allah terus uji dengan kesenangan tak tahu bila kita akan ingat Allah dan kembali pada Allah. Maaflah, saya sendiri pun tak betul. Cuma bagi saya, bila takdak sesiapa bersama Abang, inilah peluang terbaik untuk Abang dekatkan diri dengan Allah. Keluarga tak sayang tapi Allah sayang Abang. Dia buka jalan seluas-luasnya untuk Abang dekatkan diri dengan Dia. Banyak bersabar dan berdoa. Doa sama untuk bekas isteri dan anak2. Insya Allah, saya doakan suatu hari nanti dia orang akan kembali pada Abang. Paling penting dalam kita kalut bawa grab, solat kena jaga"...
Kisah macam ni kita selalu tengok dalam drama, tapi hari ni aku jumpa kisah yang real. Apapun moral of the story, sebagai suami atau ketua keluarga, tanggungjawab kita bukan setakat cari duit tapi yang lebih utama mendidik dan memastikan isteri dan anak2 jadi insan yang bertakwa...

The day in history ...
The first time I took a ride, chat with the driver until the driver cried. Allahu Akbar ...
This afternoon I was on KL to work. Up to Airport Subang, like the usual book grab to the meeting place. Since I got to Subang kol 12.20tgh day, so I kept the book grab to Masjid Saidina Abu Bakar As-Sidiq, Bangsar for Friday prayers ...
Drivers grab a Malay man in the mid 50's. The person is smart, when I start chatting I can conclude he's educated and knowledgeable in business & corporate world ...
When he talks about business chats, my corporate adds to what's okay. Just because it's okay to chat with what he's chatting while he's on his way ...
He came to his old story. He was apparently a "Datuk" from Kerteh. He used to be a millionaire. Business for oil rigs and oil and gas industry related jobs ...
Rich times, bank accounts are millions. What a wife and daughter she wants to buy. He said once the supply of iron for the construction of oil rigs was less than RM15-20 million ...
There are 5 luxury cars. Bungalow house in Pahang, Terengganu & KL. 3 children and one wife ...
In 2016, God tests him and his family. With a twinkle he fell hard. His business did not become. Dah supply goods and make payment work can not be, your business partner deceptive, the supplier is looking for mintak payment, the bank sends a notice of summons for not paying loan and more ...
The highlight of all the property is forced to be sold and auctioned. He has an ambassador for the opponent to demand payment from the debtor with him, but the case has not been completed over the years. Legal fee and over RM100k. Finally he did not go through the case because he had to pay the legal fee ...
Due to the absence of dust, he finally divorced his wife. Other married wives and children follow the wife. Until last year his eldest son was married, he was not immediately invited. Perhaps the relationship with the wife and children continues to be broken since the fall ...
He says he's alive now empty. His own wife and children can run. The family and friends are all about it. At first he had asked family members for help, but was driven. Get help from friends, all escaping. Debt with bank, bank reject ...
When he was about his family, he began to cry especially when he told him about his failure to educate his wife and children. He is only able to make money but not love, educate and invite to God's way ...
The thing he'd never thought of in life, a wife who had lived with her for more than 20 years could easily leave her because of poverty. The siblings did not claim to be his father. The family was willing to throw him when he was a family member and his relatives wanted him to.
Now is the treasure he has just a Produt Axia car to grab. For shelter, he only rented a RM200 room per month in Ara Damansara area. Routine of her life, wake up grab and break in the rental room. Eat at a stall or mamak shop. When she was in the middle of her meal, she saw her old friend nicknamed Datuk, too, her fog was hiding for shame. There were also several passenger passengers at Airport Subang. When it's close, it seems that the person he knows then continues to accelerate and cancel trip. Everything is shameful and feels too despicable. His life is very empty. Everything is gone. He said, "If it's not Islam I'm like, I'm sure it's still building or suicide. I'm good luck to that stage" ...
He said to me, "I do not know why, but there's a aura that makes me share all of this, my first customer who I share my life story, I'm not asking for sympathy, just sharing my life experience. I do not know if I'm rich like someday, do not be like me, I mistreat my wife and children with money but not with religion and compassion, that's what she does not care about me. "
Long story again. Just shortened
"I do not know what to say, I only pray to God for the strength of Abang to continue the life of Abang, Allah is really dear Abang," he tests Abang with difficulty in returning to Him. I do not know how much I love God and I'm back in God, I'm sorry, I'm not right, just for me when I'm with anyone Abang, this is the best opportunity for Abang to come close to God. open the way for Abang to be close to Him, to be patient and to pray, the same prayer for my wife and children, God willing, I pray that someday he will return to Abang. keep "...
This is the story we always look in the drama, but today I find a real story. Whatever the morale of the story, as a husband or family leader, our responsibility is not just to make money but to educate and to make sure that our wives and children become righteous people ...

Masa kaya, akaun bank ada berjuta-juta. Apa anak isteri nak semua dia belikan. Katanya sekali supply besi utk binaan pelantar minyak kurang2 pun dalam RM15-20 juta...
Kereta mewah ada 5 buah. Rumah banglo ada di Pahang, Terengganu & KL. Anak 3 orang dan seorang isteri...
Tahun 2016, Allah uji dia dan keluarga dia. Dengan sekelip mata dia jatuh susah. Bisnes dia tak menjadi. Dah supply barang dan buat kerja payment tak dapat, rakan meniaga pulak tipu, supplier cari mintak payment, bank hantar notis saman sebab tak bayar loan dan macam2 lagi...
Kemuncaknya semua harta terpaksa dijual dan dilelong. Dia ada ambik lawyer untuk lawan tuntut bayaran dari pihak yg berhutang dengan dia, tapi kes bertahun tak selesai juga. Legal fee dan lebih RM100k. Akhirnya dia tak teruskan kes sebab xdak duit nak bayar legal fee...
Disebabkan habuk pun tak ada, akhirnya isteri dia minta cerai. Isteri kahwin lain dan anak2 ikut isteri. Sampai tahun lepas anak lelaki sulung dia kahwin pun, dia langsung tak dijemput. Kiranya hubungan dengan isteri dan anak2 terus terputus sejak jatuh miskin...
Katanya lagi hidup dia kini kosong. Isteri sendiri dan anak2 pun boleh lari. Kaum keluarga dan kawan2 apatah lagi. Pada mulanya dia pernah minta bantuan ahli keluarga, tapi dihalau. Minta bantuan rakan, semua melarikan diri. Nak hutang dengan bank, bank reject...
Masa bagitau kisah family dia, dia mula menangis especially bila dia cerita tentang kegagalan dia mendidik isteri dan anak2. Dia cuma mampu bagi duit tapi bukan kasih sayang, didikan dan mengajak ke jalan Allah...
Perkara yang paling dia tak sangka dalam hidup, seorang isteri yang selama ini hidup bersama dengan dia lebih dari 20 tahun waktu senang boleh tinggalkan dia kerana kemiskinan. Anak kandung tak mengaku dia ayah. Keluarga sanggup buang dia sedangkan suatu ketika dulu apa yang ahli keluarga dan saudara mara dia nak, dia bagi..
Sekarang ni harta yang dia ada cumalah sebuah kereta Produa Axia untuk buat grab. Untuk berteduh, dia cuma menyewa bilik RM200 sebulan di area Ara Damansara. Rutin hidup dia, bangun bawa grab dan pulang rehat di bilik sewa. Makan di warung atau kedai mamak. Pernah ketika tengah makan dia ternampak rakan lama bergelar Datuk juga, kelam kabut dia sembunyi sebab malu. Pernah juga beberapa kali nak ambik passanger di Airport Subang. Bila dah dekat, rupanya orang yang dia kenali maka terus dia memecut laju dan cancel trip. Semuanya kerana malu dan terasa dirinya terlalu hina. Hidup dia sangat kosong. Segalanya tiada. Katanya, "Kalau bukan Islam jadi macam saya, confirm dah terus bangunan atau bunuh diri. Nasib baik saya tak sampai ke tahap itu"...
Dia kata kat aku, "Saya tak tahu sebab apa. Tapi encik ni macam ada aura yang menyebabkan saya kongsi semua ni. Encik customer pertama saya yang saya kongsikan kisah hidup saya. Saya bukan minta simpati, cuma sekadar berkongsi pengalaman hidup. Encik masih muda. Manalah tahu kalau encik kaya suatu hari nanti, jangan jadi macam saya. Silap saya, saya bela bini dan anak2 dengan duit tapi bukan dengan didikan agama dan kasih sayang. Itu yang dia orang tak pedulikan saya"..
Nak cerita panjang lagi. Cuma dipendekkan
cerita, kata2 aku kat dia, "Saya tak tahu nak kata apa. Cuma saya doakan Allah bagi kekuatan kat Abang utk teruskan kelangsungan hidup Abang. Allah sebenarnya sayang Abang. Dia uji Abang dengan kesusahan supaya boleh kembali kepada Dia. Kalau Allah terus uji dengan kesenangan tak tahu bila kita akan ingat Allah dan kembali pada Allah. Maaflah, saya sendiri pun tak betul. Cuma bagi saya, bila takdak sesiapa bersama Abang, inilah peluang terbaik untuk Abang dekatkan diri dengan Allah. Keluarga tak sayang tapi Allah sayang Abang. Dia buka jalan seluas-luasnya untuk Abang dekatkan diri dengan Dia. Banyak bersabar dan berdoa. Doa sama untuk bekas isteri dan anak2. Insya Allah, saya doakan suatu hari nanti dia orang akan kembali pada Abang. Paling penting dalam kita kalut bawa grab, solat kena jaga"...
Kisah macam ni kita selalu tengok dalam drama, tapi hari ni aku jumpa kisah yang real. Apapun moral of the story, sebagai suami atau ketua keluarga, tanggungjawab kita bukan setakat cari duit tapi yang lebih utama mendidik dan memastikan isteri dan anak2 jadi insan yang bertakwa...

The day in history ...
The first time I took a ride, chat with the driver until the driver cried. Allahu Akbar ...
This afternoon I was on KL to work. Up to Airport Subang, like the usual book grab to the meeting place. Since I got to Subang kol 12.20tgh day, so I kept the book grab to Masjid Saidina Abu Bakar As-Sidiq, Bangsar for Friday prayers ...
Drivers grab a Malay man in the mid 50's. The person is smart, when I start chatting I can conclude he's educated and knowledgeable in business & corporate world ...
When he talks about business chats, my corporate adds to what's okay. Just because it's okay to chat with what he's chatting while he's on his way ...
He came to his old story. He was apparently a "Datuk" from Kerteh. He used to be a millionaire. Business for oil rigs and oil and gas industry related jobs ...
Rich times, bank accounts are millions. What a wife and daughter she wants to buy. He said once the supply of iron for the construction of oil rigs was less than RM15-20 million ...
There are 5 luxury cars. Bungalow house in Pahang, Terengganu & KL. 3 children and one wife ...
In 2016, God tests him and his family. With a twinkle he fell hard. His business did not become. Dah supply goods and make payment work can not be, your business partner deceptive, the supplier is looking for mintak payment, the bank sends a notice of summons for not paying loan and more ...
The highlight of all the property is forced to be sold and auctioned. He has an ambassador for the opponent to demand payment from the debtor with him, but the case has not been completed over the years. Legal fee and over RM100k. Finally he did not go through the case because he had to pay the legal fee ...
Due to the absence of dust, he finally divorced his wife. Other married wives and children follow the wife. Until last year his eldest son was married, he was not immediately invited. Perhaps the relationship with the wife and children continues to be broken since the fall ...
He says he's alive now empty. His own wife and children can run. The family and friends are all about it. At first he had asked family members for help, but was driven. Get help from friends, all escaping. Debt with bank, bank reject ...
When he was about his family, he began to cry especially when he told him about his failure to educate his wife and children. He is only able to make money but not love, educate and invite to God's way ...
The thing he'd never thought of in life, a wife who had lived with her for more than 20 years could easily leave her because of poverty. The siblings did not claim to be his father. The family was willing to throw him when he was a family member and his relatives wanted him to.
Now is the treasure he has just a Produt Axia car to grab. For shelter, he only rented a RM200 room per month in Ara Damansara area. Routine of her life, wake up grab and break in the rental room. Eat at a stall or mamak shop. When she was in the middle of her meal, she saw her old friend nicknamed Datuk, too, her fog was hiding for shame. There were also several passenger passengers at Airport Subang. When it's close, it seems that the person he knows then continues to accelerate and cancel trip. Everything is shameful and feels too despicable. His life is very empty. Everything is gone. He said, "If it's not Islam I'm like, I'm sure it's still building or suicide. I'm good luck to that stage" ...
He said to me, "I do not know why, but there's a aura that makes me share all of this, my first customer who I share my life story, I'm not asking for sympathy, just sharing my life experience. I do not know if I'm rich like someday, do not be like me, I mistreat my wife and children with money but not with religion and compassion, that's what she does not care about me. "
Long story again. Just shortened
"I do not know what to say, I only pray to God for the strength of Abang to continue the life of Abang, Allah is really dear Abang," he tests Abang with difficulty in returning to Him. I do not know how much I love God and I'm back in God, I'm sorry, I'm not right, just for me when I'm with anyone Abang, this is the best opportunity for Abang to come close to God. open the way for Abang to be close to Him, to be patient and to pray, the same prayer for my wife and children, God willing, I pray that someday he will return to Abang. keep "...
This is the story we always look in the drama, but today I find a real story. Whatever the morale of the story, as a husband or family leader, our responsibility is not just to make money but to educate and to make sure that our wives and children become righteous people ...
PROMO AND TRY NOT TO PAY
Friday, 11 January 2018.
Morning only got one fish.
7.32am, SEY a Korean young lady at One Ampang Avenue (North Point) going to Eastin Hotel. Most of the journey she spoke to her Korean friend on the phone. While approaching the hotel, she also called and spoke to a Malay friend inviting him for makan (breakfast). At the dropoff, I saw she got promo rm20 (walahweh). And she thought she was using Grabpay, but I told her that it should be cash fare. She said sorry and paid me.
Dear diary, after more than 3 years driving Grab, now I think I already knew what type of payment they're going to pay.

HIGHWAYS TO NO PING
Thursday, 10 January 2019.
Morning no fish. Because I use SKVE and ELITE highways.
========
After work, I got 2 pings but I didnt take them to avoid the infamous traffic jam infront of Stadium Shah Alam junctions before exiting to the Federal Highway. It's a lesson well learned.
So I drove on the NKVE and DUKE highways instead.
I was stuck for more than half an hour while exiting the Duke into the MRR2. Demm. But I occupied the time by watching The Terminal (2004) on my free iflix.

DRIVE CAREFULLY HE SAID
Wednesday, 9 January 2018.
7.23am, an amoi at Kiara Residence 20 going to Paradign Mall. She asked me to cum inside to Block C, but when I arrived she's still not there at the lobby.
The morning rush hour traffic was really bad. I asked her on better route, otherwise I just follow my GPS (Waze & Google maps).
Instead of 41min (for 18km), and there's a red cones blockage on LDP, so it took me more than one hour to reach the Paradigm mall.
I apologised to her for the delay due to the traffic jam. "No," she replied while opening the door, "I'm sorry for you!" Lajaiao lah.
================
After work, run errands to Sunway Mentari.
Break at Masjid Sunway, pee and pray.
Then driving to TBS bus terminal, still no ping.
8.17pm, RUF an Indon couple at LRT Sungai Besi going to Perdana Selatan Coa (South City Plaza). Not much talking. At the dropoff, infront of the condom entrance, he said, "pandu hati-hati ye."

SICK PEOPLE ALSO WANTS TO EAT NASI LEMAK
Monday, 7 January 2018.
Morning no fish.
After work, got 2 fish.
6.06pm, RAR an Indian girl at Efficient E-Solutions Jalan Astaka U8/82. It was a bad traffic jam. It took me half an hour to get into the Lebuhraya Persekutuan. I sent the quiet girl to Icon Residenz @ Icon City PJ.
7.14pm, PEARL an Indian family ping me while I was at NPE highway and missed the nearest uturn and costed me another 3 km to get to the MDZ Hemodialysis Center for 13 minutes. Since they're not cancelling the job, I just slowly pick them up. Her mom's on the wheelchair and later sat next to me. She, her mom and 3 little kids sitting in the middle row seat. The wheelchair I pushed it up to the back. Then I asked them to stop at the Petronas gas station since I want to pee. At the same she wanted to take some money at the atm. After I back to the cab, the old sick lady said she wanted to buy nasi lemak for the kids since they've been not having any meals while waiting at the hemodialysis center. Then I turned back to the abang nasi lemak at the traffic junction bus stop. When arrived there, she went down and approached the seller but soon she came back with unhappy face and told me that the nasi lemak already finished, "dah habis." Aiseh. So I told them maybe they could buy some nasi at nearby kedai mamak. They said okay. But when we arrived at the kedai mamak, the old lady felt uneasy and told me to drive further up. But I showed them that there's "Nasi Lemak Panas" written inside the restaurant! So she went down and asked about the nasi lemak which luckily is available.
Dear diary, actually the lady gave me rm5 tips because I sent them back to the nasi lemak stall just now. Frankly I wanted to treat them since I felt pity to see the old sick lady.

KEPOH LADY
Friday, 4 January 2018.
At 6.41am, got ping from the same INT a Malay lady at nearby Pangsapuri Kristal. I took her up last week. I felt regret. Fortunately she asked me, "hye, boleh tungu 5 minit?" Then I cancelled and my CR became 4.8%.
6.46am, ahkak NOR a Malay lady at Jalan Bukit Indah 2/1, next to my old house. I really regret selling that house. The lady brought with her some plastic bags of breakfast for her friends who're staying in Fahrenheit hotel. This "kepoh" lady liked to talk and talk. I felt uneasy as she talked like a little girl. First, she complained about current children issue on the first of their school where the parents are willing to stay at the school. "Dulu mak bapak saya takde pun tungu kat sekolah, pepandai lah saya pegi sekolah sendiri," she told me. I said, during the old days some parents also got carried away by staying at the school. "Bukan saya, " wahlaweh, this lady never wanted to be on losing side. Then she screamed at me while I was taking the shortcut on Jalan Kosas due to traffic jam. “Cek tak takut ke orang nampak dashcam ni?” “Susah nak cari orang jual sarapan kat tempat kita tuh!” I told her that there’re many kesai mamak at the back of the Fahrenheit mall.

INDIAN INDON
Thursday, 3 January 2018.
Today I got 4 trips.
Only one Justgrab story.
6.60pm, SAR an India Sikh family (I guess) at Pantai Hospital going to Swiss Garden Residence. They're speaking Bahasa Indon. The old big man (the daddy) sat next to me is sick, walking slowly. His wife and her 2 daughters were sitting at the back. But wait, actually I already confused. I overheard the elder girl told his sister to take the medicine. Does she (the little girl) or the dad who's sick? Due to bad traffic jam and heavy rains, I used Waze who directed me by using shortcuts.
