Bangalore Junction
Here in the West we have so little to worry about that we create health and safety nightmare scenarios (such as the local council that banned its staff from putting up Xmas decorations because someone might fall off a chair) to give us something to fret about. In contrast, life is much harder in Bangalore and there is a much more phlegmatic attitude to daily hazards - including the daily risk of being hit by a high speed train, if you live and work around a railroad junction.

Ah but it’s human to fret and worry and take so many things for granted. Many Malaysians are lamenting the fuel hike but not realising what we pay pale in comparison with other countries. Sure, it’s a political issue some say, but in a way, it’s time we all wake up to what riches we have in our daily lives.

How true, Kenny.
