Why the Morning Rush?

Was it just me or the traffic in Kuala Lumpur since the Chinese New Year break has been horrendous? Usually, I leave my Gombak house at around 7.30, enough time to wave goodbye to my kids an reach Subang comfortably by 8.15 or so.

On a couple of occasions lately, if I were to leave that late, I would only reach the car park at around 8.45. An hour plus drive and the hassle to start off your day? A definitely detriment to my quality of life.

I think much of the problem was contributes by the new traffic flow at the intersection of DUKE and the Jalan Duta exit. Comes were put up at the entrance causing a sudden reduction from 3 to 1 lane. The queue could easily stretched for a couple of miles.

To avoid this, I took the NKVE route and exit at the Subang Jaya interchange. A slight jam free that but if I left early enough, it should a doddle. I then settled for a quick breakfast near the hospital ....

Check-in Please

The power of being the Mayor of Sime Darby Medical Center has finally entered my head! In a blatant attempt at self-promotion, I have opened a FourSquare check-in at my clinic.

Yes, anyone can check-in, but there can only be one mayor there ......

Who's the Mayor?

Happy Monday all. It's a brand new week. After the horrendous traffic situation driving in all last week, I decided to drive in early and have some breakfast at the cafe near the hospital. That won't be good for my waistline though!

Another bit news was I managed to oust @palmdoc as Mayor of SDMC. Now, my consultation fees would go up by 20% and everyone has to kneel before for I am the Mayor!

Raining Saturday

Oh No! It looks like it would be raining today. I made plans for a quick photowalk in town, with a busy week lined up for next week and weekend. So, hopefully the rain would let up later today, and I'd be able to snap some photos.

Morning Sit

Reached work early to sort out patients from recent call. A few of them needed review this morning. Consequently I had to drive into Subang, then turn around to PJ to give a talk for a Pharmaceutical group.

I ended up waiting for the traffic to subside. The last things wanted would be to be stuck in traffic rushing from one place to another. So, time for some tea ...... and good morning .....
