And so the blame game begins.
When the massive landslide (Ren, remember how we were so into Ammo and you unknowingly spelt land slYde during your exam? So funny!) in Bukit Antarabangsa occured, many families lost their homes and some lost their loved ones. For days the disaster made headlines in various local media. Then the story angles started changing.
In addition to the unfortunate tales of the event, articles on who's to be blamed for the slide started popping up. Can't say i am surprised. After all, we all love to point fingers at others.
So i read about people blaming the government for approving construction projects without first doing their research. I read how construction staff are accused of not doing their best job and continuously harming the environment.
Oddly enough, what i don't read is the tenants themselves owing up to their faults. Among all this chaos and accusations, many seemed to have forgotten that they too, played a part in causing the catastrophe for supply cannot exist without demand. No housing company would be stupid enough to lose their money and build homes on hills if there were no buyers.
Think about it. Yes, government can be blamed, those who build housing estates are wrong but aren't we too?
