AT WIT'S END

you know those emoticons that they have in yahoo messenger? one of them is called 'at wit's end'. i never really really used that particular emoticon. first of all, it looks scary. and second of all, i was never really in a situation where i feel that way.

until now that is. i am OFFICIALLY at my wit's end with this country.




they have decided to block VOIP calls in this country effective yesterday. a total 100% block. previously, they blocked calls from yahoo messenger. but it was still fine for me because i still had my skpye (skype.com has been banned in this country since last year but i downloaded the application before i came here so it was still ok). but now, they've blocked the bloody thing totally that i can't even log on to skype!

this is just utter cruelness for me. this country, as it is, is filthy rich. is there a NEED to deprive the foreign workers like me (which accounts for 75% of the population) from communicating with the people our home country at an affordable rate? apparently, there is.

the last time i checked, making a phone call to m'sia using my handphone costs me about rm6.50 per minute. how do you even talk comfortably when you know that you're calling at such rate? but thanks to skype, i was still able to call my family and friends (not forgetting scandals) and chat mindlessly for hours. that is now a thing in the past.

etisalat - you SUCK!!!!! pbbbthhhh!!!!!

p.s: camana nak berskandal jarak jauh dah lepas nih?
