no wonder lah melaka is so damn jammed pack with cars. it was hell unleashed for the last 3-days weekend holiday for the past 3 weeks. the first week was Awal Muharram 18-Dec. stuck in the jam loop around Mahkota for 1.5hrs to get out of the loop. the next 2 weeks (including today) just stay at home.

and tomorrow journey to work would be hell also with the occasional jam in front of schools..

happy new year guys!
