I did mine for only RM100. :tease:
Keep your eyes opened :shock: for any nearby road resurfacing, talk to the supervisor, mention the magic word "minum kopi" :$gone: and your drive way will be done in no time! :peace:

We complain the policemen are corrupt, politicians are corrupt, civil servants are corrupt, businessmen are corrupt. Yet at the same time, we are feeding into the system. Put some restrains in yourself please. Please don’t do these sort of things.

Better to apply to the Municipal Council, Penang, and request their people to do it. Pay for the bills and get a receipt :)
