Because cold weather people cannot be complacent

In cold places, if you do not plan ahead, you die. As simple as that. You need to have a warm house and a way to stay warm and fed during the long winter when nothing grows. You cannot just live day by day. Of course in modern societies you can still survive a winter beeing a retard, but that is just beacuse someone else has done the planning for you.

Malaysia would not be Malaysia anymore if it had cold winter.
No coconut, palm oil or  banana etc, totally different food. Nasi Lemak replaced with potatoes.
Infrastructure would need to be totally different. Nothing is built to handle sub zero degrees. Forget going to school or work on moto. I wonder how DBKL snow plowing would work if same mentality.

I laughed 😂

within 10 days winter In Malaysia.

60~70% plant / animal / ecosystem will be wipe off.
estimated >25% population wipe off, especially kids and old people.

Our Water delivery system will be totally shut down within 1st 24 hours of winter.

Many electronic/electrical appliances are not ready to stay working in winter also.

Pipe, sewege system all failed.

No hospital can function because they not resign to work in winter.

Most house, especially high rise, become killing spot.


The Power of uneducated person imagination.

A lot of people in Sweden got electric heating. Was made popular in 1980's when the country had over invested in nuclear power and had too much spare electricity capacity. Now those people are trying to convert to other ways of heating though. Still I know quite a few who still use it. Converting to other heating modes is expensive also.

One thesis is that cold weather countries are generally more advanced for certain reasons.

oh yeah... i forgot about heat pumps... quite rare when I was overseas. my bad.
you are right.. technically it is electric heating.

even if it is nuclear, i cannot imagine electricity being cheaper vs gas. then again, putin did change fuel prices for europe.

Do you understand the meaning of "generally"? Also sg is only recently advanced. The thesis is more about those traditional strong nations over many many decades, Europe, Japan, NA etc

Actually a lot have direct heating with electric radiators. Heat pumps is what they usually switch to to lower cost smile.gif
