This is the kinda thinking that leds Malaysian to be sucks like sacrificial goats for all the blood by UMNO for 50 years.

Friend, it's time to change ur thinking. Don't just bend over and get screw like a whore!!! 

Streamyx is already overpriced for what it is. We, the rakyat has to sponsor the gov for everything, and they in turn, suck all our money to feed their cronies to keep them in power.

Here's a nice e-mail i received yesterday:
============================================
What do I get for paying toll every day?

      This is on top of the road tax that we pay.

  Now I have to pay an extra RM50 for each credit card. For what?

        Some cards still carry the yearly fees payable to the provider.

  Extra GST (goods and services tax). Again, how does that benefit me?

        So the money you earned is tax and the money you spend is also tax.

        How do you like that???

  Look at the long list of 11 items. 

  I have to pay for security guards because the  police are hopeless.
  I have to install filters because the water supply is dirty.
  I have to watch satellite tv because the government broadcasts crap.

  Many kids have to go for tuition or to private schools because the
        government schools are bad.
  We have to pay IPPs (independent power providers) because the government
        cannot provide consistent electricity.

  We have to pay Indah Water to clean up the sewers.
  We have to pay tax on foreign cars because Mahathir wants to keep his
        dying local car industry alive.
    Most have to drive because the government cannot provide good public
        transport.

  We have to pay to sustain the government's affirmative action policies.
  We have to pay for private health care because the public hospitals are
        crowded .

  Don't forget, the monthly salary that we earned  will be taxed.

    All in all, we have to pay a PREMIUM to stay in this country! Pay, Pay and
      Pay



1Malaysia Boleh!!!  -
=========================================================

Seriously, asking for RM70+ for a 5Mbps is UNREASONABLE???   Like paying toll for every god damn road in the city is REASONABLE?? Change your thinking dude. Or else you'll forever be screwed.

lerrr...nobody need to be anybody laughing stock...

anyway...IMHO the pricing package is mahal, premium or not. i still can afford it but it still mahal considering berapa % rakyat malaysia can afford this...

if TM + gomen says this is the way they want to help rakyat...then it is not.
with this pricing plan, they might as well said "kita mau kaut untung saja"

anyway, i think u, mr SHOfrE3zE has loooong been working with TM. tht's y u r so comfortable being in there, not knowing ppl suffring to live out there to get the best with their hard earn money...how i know? i've been in TM for yeeearrrrsss b4 i quit. then been working in 3rd world countries. have also been working in developed countries & now back in malaysia...all in telecommunication. there r a lot of good things in TM together with their staff...A LOT!!! but unfortunately it comes with a lot of bad things also.

maybe u can tell us which country u have been living b4 and all of us can relate to what u have told us....

in short i hope that TM can revise the price ASAP...or we (the non TM staff) will wait for better pricing as TM ALWAYS do...
