- tamaulipas
- Clearly my name is not Tamaulipas. Tamaulipas is one of the 31 states of Mexico and is located in the northeast. In Malay language, it can literally means 'do not want cockroach'. Basically, I am rambling about things on my mind.

C H E A T E R !
I always feel cheated after paying for a meal in a restaurant. Especially, when looking at the expensive charges that they charged for a meal that I do not think deserve the charges they charged. Especially those restaurant preparing the so called western food. Yeah, I know that they served something from the west. It is western OK, but the price does not have to be converted based on the western currency. This is because I know, and they know that everyone knows that the ingredients that they used to make their meal are not imported from any country that they claimed the dish is from. Clear example is to charge a meal of hamburger with fries more than 10 ringgit! All we know that the cost of preparing the dish is less than 2 ringgit! why? because everything is not imported, it is bought locally. Logically, the price of the aforementioned dish is supposedly 4 ringgit, to account for the cost of labor and taxes including profit. but Malaysian is becoming more generous to the restaurants. All they say is that they are willing to pay more price to eat better food. Is it really a better food? Maybe or maybe not, you decide for yourself. Unlike Americans, in few days, they will be deciding on who will becoming the next president. So if Americans can decide to choose on what they want, we Malaysian can also decide to boycott those restaurants with impractical prices. hopefully if nobody goes to their restaurant, they will get the hint to lower the prices of their dishes.
