Taking Us All For a Cool Bus Ride

Well our cool Brit PR team must really be earning their money's worth by asking 1Malaysia to take a cab, then a bus and the latest to cycle to look cool like experiencing what ordinary Ahmad, Aminah, Ah Chong, Ananda, Awatar Singh or Arkie's daily routine moving around using public transport.

So when our cool 1Malaysia took a bus in the Silver state, the folks might have really seen a silver lining that 1Malaysia is really cool with being down to earth when they saw the silver hair leader descending from a bus.

And leading a government that put the people first, 1Malaysia was cool to say "It used to be by car but this time we board the bus to meet the people. I want to feel what its like to do away with protocol. There must be no barrier to separate leaders and the people."

Well the rural kampung folks will believe the humility, humbleness and a lot of cool in being so 'ordinary' travelling by bus this time.

But those who know how politicians are especially come election time, they will do lots of cool things to show the voters that they have not been forgotten.

So come election time, the rural folks are happy to hear the drone of a helicopter or the siren sound of an entourage approaching including the generous makan2 being spread out as well as new roads, now uniform, almost everything new.

But those who know their politicians well smell something amiss. 1Malaysia is truthful and it is a historical fact that on that particular day, the real and official prime minister REALLY DID TAKE A BUS!

So what was shown in MSMedia was the outside of the bus and we humble ordinary citizens will think it is at best a refurbished tour bus, maybe supplied by Cuti-Cuti Malaysia Minister.

In today's ever pervasive social media environment, the truth will be told sooner or later. And lo and behold, the so called cool ride on a cool bus turned out to be anything than ordinary as reported in online media like here which was as usual conveniently left out in MSMedia. Wonder that this so called freedom of press supposedly freerier after the annoucement was all about when the MSMedia continues to report half truths and worse hide the fact of a really cool, pun intended, shiok bus they travelled in.

We wonder how much cool cold ringgit casg was spent on this luxurious cool bus to make them look real cool, pun intended! But then again when you have the Real pm there, you better have a cool real cool as in air con cool and luxurious comfort coach else all those expensive make up will flop in the heat right?

Why people complain travelling by bus is not cool eh?

Even if it our cool dude tries so hard to show how cool he is, beneath all those humility is just trying to make all of us stupid dude when you do just the opposite. Sure it's cool when you have escorts for your cab, or cool bus, or on your bicycle or even walkabout! When you have a 'red carpet' unimpeded walkway, it's real cool! You get to where you want without any worries about jam and all that, or smelly bus toilets, hot blowing air con. smoking by the driver, or sticky floors or broken seats, or TV blaring out in the middle of the night or drivers going at break-necking speed!

So should we get all hot up over this cool fake pretentious cool branding huh?

Perhaps these cool PR fellos know something about rural folks' mentality that we urban fellows don't know? They are impressed by the cool expensive stuff, a symbol and sign of power and also a sign that sudah naik pangkat and BolehLand sudah maju. Perhaps a subtle tease that this is where you can be if you vote for me and join them in the luxury train! Yes indeed as driver, waiter and signal person we can supposed, no?

While the official pm is trying so ever to look cool doing cool things, the Real pm has way ahead in the cool game. Expensive brand accessories, shades, bags, jewellry and couture fashion, are also considered cool stuff and many forget that the Real pm have always been cool about such stuff and ever cool showing them off. The official pm is now only trying to catch up on the 'cool fad' huh?

Is it humility if you have your jet or helicopter waiting for you after your cool ride? We rather prefer a genuine real down to earth honest person than all this cool show right?

The citizens are really trying to look for substance than form. But they are still being shown the form, the cool outside stuff! There is nothing cool at all trying to show that people come first. In fact, when VVIP's are on the people, people have to GET OUT OF THE WAY first or else kena saman or shouted at!!! Including those who abuse it to go for shopping or some evening pageant!

What other cool stunt will the Tony's Cool Team think of next? On a tricycle. skateboarding, break dancing, doing the poco=poco in the Silver State would be super cool! windsurfing, playing football, hockey, badminton (which is the Real prime minister's favourite game we are told) or a cool trishaw or on a motorbike to show our mat rempits you can be 'cool' without showing off and killing others and yourself right?

Don't be surprised if it includes parachuting and rock climbing, paintball and even video games!

If you try so hard to try to be cool that is so UNCOOL! But then who cares, they are able to travel in a comfortable cool luxurious transport while the millions of us are contented with paying our road tax or wait on ends for the bus to arrive, get fleeced from touts and endure traffic crawls. And do we believe 1Malaysia telling us 'it's cool what travelling by bus, what's all those complaints, huh?

So what is the next cool stuff that the cool Brits PR team will think about?

Selling red bean and coconut ice cream and ice kacang and cendol we can supposed. After all these are all cool 1Malaysia favourites right? - YAHMEH!!!
