So you basically got the gist of my post which is
1. inflation kills off the value of ringgit every year.
2. it's not that broadband pricings are expensive in Malaysia, it's that our income has not catch up with inflation, hence the perceived "expensive pricing of RM88 for 1mbps internet".

If you are earning RM8000 a month (equivalent to S$3300), RM88 does not look expensive. But if you are earning RM2000 a month, RM88 is expensive.

3. my mentality is also if you cannot afford something, DON'T use it. if you cannot afford RM88 internet for 1mbps - then you DON't subscribe to internet. It's that simple.

I think the pricing of internet is just about right at the moment, yes and I agree with you, we are all underpaid. The solution here is not so much to decrease the price of internet, but to increase our own income to beat inflation, so that RM88 will become like chicken feed to us. Correct or not?

1. ya3, we know about that already, every others country in the worldalso have that problem (which raise the question, why the hell other country can provide faster internet speed and we can't) but so do the internet... the more advanced and better the hardware they use, the more cheaper they distribute the bandwidth. But, let face it, we stuck at 512KBps at RM66 for how many year? 1MBp/s at RM88 how many years? Unless they don't upgrade their infrastructure, maybe I don't ask for more if they can provide at least 70% of the packages speed, I gladly happy paid RM88 for 1MBp/s every month... but 1MBp/s with crappy service + cap + etc + fup is a bit of overprice for. Why it is so hard for them provide a 1MBp/s, 2MBp/s or 4MBp/s. Come on! many develop country like us have a fast connection with good value compare to our. Year 2020 is 9 years, 14 days to come and we still stuck at 1MB/ps @ RM88? Come on! you want to stuck with 1MBp/s at RM88 forever?

2. That why you can't find a cheap 1Mbp/s for $8 at Singapore, cause people in the is so rich... Don't have a pity for us that have salary below than RM2000?

3. So basically, if I can't buy a house for RM100000 with my RM1800 salary, don't buy it? Or if I want to buy a motorcyles for RM3000 with my RM1800, don't buy it also? Or if my family is poor, I can't study in college and have a better life? (ha3, don't know this out of topic or not)

1. You have the option of terminating streamyx you know. I terminated Astro because I think they overcharge me for a crappy RM90+ /month for repetitive programs and advertisements.

2. If you cannot afford something, you don't use it. If you want to use it, but can't afford it, then EARN more money la. Take up part-time job, go upgrade your skills, etc. That's the right way. Our grandparents / parents did that in the 1970s and 60s - HARDWORKING. Youngsters nowadays - haih - too pampered and expect government to fix everything for them.

3. Haiyo, this is like you see some people drive BMW and Mercedes, but your income can only afford a motorcycle. What to do? drive motorcycle lor - rehda la. If you want to drive mercedes, then you have to work hard lo. You expect the Mercedes to reduce the price of their cars for you so that you can drive it meh?

ayo yo.

I'm can't terminate the internet, cause it the only thing that help me do my work. In my area only have streamyx and dial-up. Ya, that why our pak cik, mak cik use computer for typing, surfing and etc, because they don't want to exploit the technology like we do. Yeah, all of us expected the government to fix this... cause they got the power to do so, and we don't. Unless we all stick together

1. Obviously, with just "technically" one isp around, and such pricing, and with understated yearly profits, your country has better use for your money. Guess who? Guess how?
2. The people running the country do not have the same feelings you have for them. You even voted for them! Singaporeans care.
3. Exactly, nobody cares! Especially those who run the show. I care for no one but me.

And TM doesn't care and they will never care until something's at stake for them. Yeah, LIKE WHAT?

ok la, I don't want comment anymore liau. Later people got hurt by my comments. No intention to do that. Apology and maaf ke if tersinggung. Sekadar peringatan je..

if want life condition to improve, don't expect prices of good to come down because they only go up one direction. The only way to do it is to up our own income. Like that is the way. Don't expect other people to fix our problems for us, because we are on our own at the end of the day.

may you all find happiness.

This country isn't about hardworking. It's about making deals, a little for you and your buddy on the grand seat. I have a business here, am doing OK. But you have money that has to go out unnecessarily yet necessarily all the time. And to those that accept, they don't have to work too hard.

Take Mr CEO for instance. Does he work hard? Or does Tech support work hard? customer support work with almost no resources, no power, no education, low pay, and takes the blame for everything.

1. Yes you do. What are you going to do about it?
2. Well, I don't care about you, and SOMEHOW I still get the votes. What are you going to do about it? RIOT? Hihi, we got ISA! What do you have?
3. Someone who has seats needs to be truly caring for his people. And to do that, he will have to risk his life for it. How many cover up stories have we seen?

This is the way things work here. One day I may vanish from the forums for just saying this and thing is...... nobody.... will know......

Ain't life sad? It happens. Life just ain't fair, and god says you have to deal with it.

1. So you prefer that over changes for good? Well that good for you.

3. Ya, i get what you mean, this is something small rite? There a some bigger problem that we need to help.

lastly, because you don't want to try hard enough to let somebody to remember you.

Yes, something it sad... but do we have to be sad all the time? unfair? well, try to live with that dude, even in out hardest time, we can still find some happiness.

1. That's not my question. That's their question. They ask you, you're not happy, and just what are you going to do about it?
2. You wait for people to riot, other people wait for you. I say the same for myself. It's VERY difficult and very sad.
3. Community must grow hateful and angry very slowly. It will take a long long time before anything's actually done.

This is not about sadness or happiness, this is about the damn capping.. which is really just sadness.

1. lol, I thought you one of the government guy biggrin.gif
2. relax, wait until the time come to do it... patient... you don't want ISA to ambush you rite? Or wait for someone that have enough gut to do that.... maybe, someone like hitler or gandhi... (ha3)
3. hopefully, it will happen soon enough. But like you said, no one care about this. Also, maybe 70%-80% of subscriber just don't care or don't know about this

well, talked about sadness, I'm happy rite know cause I get a full speed and do my work faster biggrin.gif biggrin.gif biggrin.gif
