the Serdang experience

It was the second time I'm taking KTM and the first time taking it to Serdang. I was going there to attend a session on music which featured an Indonesian band - led by the brilliant Adon. Besides the session, the journey itself has its highlights too. When i arrived at the Serdang station and trooped out in search of taxi, there you go - Malaysia Boleh - one row of taxis anticipating your arrival. As expected, one of them immediately approached me and I told him of my desired destination and the next thing he said was: "rm10 ah?". I didn't bother protesting as I was more focused on reaching there on time and it after all would be fruitless trying to urge him against that idea. His short and direct answer already provided a Leading Question.

Along the way appeared more and more Critical Thinking terms including Compound Claims: Conditionals when he complained that if the driver in front does not drive any faster, then she will probably reach her destination tomorrow morning. As the slow driver constantly irritated him with her pace ever since she overtook him at the junction, he snorted: "Now I'm gonna cut you and make sure you don't get past the traffic light, slow coach!". What a harsh Ad Populum Appeal to Spite statement he grunted. Well, yet again - the Malaysian transport system never fails to attract the people. There should be a certain standard in becoming a taxi driver and training should be conducted to train and discipline them. Additionally, these touts should be closely inspected and be punished for their indecent actions. But, this probably would take years to actually be enforced because the enforcers themselves are as lazy as ships in the doldrums. Upon the time the enforcers start acting, the touts would have zoomed off far away. Simile and metaphor has been described in the former and latter sentences.
