Can Ordinary Folks Get Such Special Treatment?

It is good that the assemblyman wants to send 20,000 greeting cards to his constituents during this festive season.

To collect the 15,000 cards at twenty sen per card the post office will earn RM3000. But does this justify sending “a dozen staff, including the state manager”? One would imagine that the three or four vehicles used and the travel time could not justify this PR stunt.

The most that should have been provided was one vehicle and some collection bags to be picked up later.

Meanwhile the queues at most post offices have become much longer as Pos Malaysia now provides services to so many third parties.
