This morning was my first morning parking in Bangsar after a long time and I noticed that they now have new parking meters  (oh crap! I should have taken a picture of it, just to show you as evidence!!!). Being the good citizen that I am, I went to get a ticket to put on my car but I am right now sitting in Starbucks with my car dangerously parked without a ticket and ready for a police summon!

I have always considered myself to be of average intelligence and despite that, know that there are millions and gazillions of people in Malaysia who are of below average intelligence. Thus when designing a parking meter, or rather, designing the instructions that go with it,  don’t you think that it should be targetted to at least the majority of the population? Yes, I am saying that the majority population are of below average intelligence. At least, that’s my point of view.

So imagine my frustration this morning when I couldn’t get the darn parking meter to operate!!! The instructions were not clear and in fact, didn’t even make sense. But that’s so typical in Malaysia. They get idiots to design for the country because all the smart ones are smart enough to stay abroad. For example, who do you think designs all the road highway signages in malaysia? They go around in motorbikes marking their maps on where to put the signages, do you think motorbikes have the same view points as other large vehicles??? Then most of the time, the signages are blocked by overgrown leaves. No wonder people get lost all the time. Or maybe it’s a ploy to distract the people so the Government can play.

So. Parking meters in Bangsar – does anyone know how to operate them? Perhaps mine wasn’t working but they really should be working if they are new. It said to press for your language so I pity the people who cannot read Bahasa or English. Then to key in your car number, yet the keypad had ABCs and 123s, but when you type it in, only the numerals show. Then nothing happens. Click, click, click. Nothing happens. Click, click, click, click everywhere. Nothing happens. Read instructions step by step. Follow in detail. Re-read instructions. Click, click. Nothing happens. Click, click, click, click. Nothing happens. I looked around.

Then kicked the blasted machine and walked off.
