Blogger's note: I hope my son get the same privileges next year.This is about winning the hearts and minds of parents after a disastrous BN GE12 outing. I could be wrong of course.Had they implemented similar policy in 2004 I could have saved in excess ofRM350K easily huh.God knows best.Praise be to Him.
