Excuse me, thank you

According to the survey from reader digest, common courtesy in KL is going to be extinct very soon. It should really be in the endangered species list. By putting it on the list, anyone who is not courteous can be legally fined/jailed. Only then can we really appreciate courtesy.

The result of the survey is based on three common situation.
1. the dropped paper test
2. holding the door test
3. the thank you test

True to the true Malaysian, Malaysia did not hold up well to these test. I would have to agree that Malaysia is starting to lose its friendliness image. The declination is more apparent in large cities as compared to smaller towns. With all the mad rush to climb the cooperate ladder, patience testing, pride and ego, it does not comes to a surprise we are all losing grip of the basic common courtesy.

We as the citizen of Malaysia, once well known for its friendly and courteous people, should rise up and stop the decay of courtesy. It is not that hard to do because all we need to do is to mind one's Ps and Qs.

When was the last time you use the word "thank you"? Well, mine was when I paid for dinner 5 hours ago, how about you?
