Malaysia will host the 10th Session of the Islamic Summit Conference which will be held from October 11th to 18th.
Like previous big international events, roads will be closed to facilitate the traffic. Don't get caught off guard, here's an early warning from the Royal Police(in Malay).
OIC...
The event forced me to wake up early,
WALKED KILOMETERS to nearest LRT station... TODAY!

I spend an hour yesterday trying to get to my workplace because I missed the cut-off time by 5 minutes. I got so close. So very close. In fact, I was at the end of the road where my office was located. But they wouldn't let any traffic through. And this was my THIRD attempt at going to the office. So I ended up in a Starbucks in a shopping centre having breakfast for one hour while watching Sex & the City on my laptop.

mmm...traffic 'misfortune' from a mixed of:
- infrastructure mismanagement;
- uncontrolled development;
- unsustainable off-the-shelf masterplanning;
- etc, etc....
anyway, OIC, Welcome to M'sia! the model Islamic bolehland...
