Weekends have been so busy it’s crazy.
We took a drive up to Malacca over one of the recent weekends to escape Sg for a while.
On the way up, the driver went “Oh no, I think I got caught [for speeding].”
Me [turning in my seat and searching for the cops and not seeing any]: Where?!? I don’t see any police! How do you know??
Him [resigned look on face]: I know.
One minute later, Mr Cop pulled up behind us.
Mr Cop [not totally serious-looking]: You ah, you were clocking 128 km / hour, do you know that?
Him [just as not-totally-serious too]: Sorry ah Sir..
Mr Cop: Our radar caught you from 7 km away you know..
Me [certain that Mr Cop will fine us]: =(
Him [digging the pocket of pants and producing 50 RM]: Sorry Sir, can give chance?
Me: ???
Mr Cop [taking the 50 RM]: Okay, chance.
Him: =)
Mr Cop: =)
Me: !!!*ding ding ding. lai friendly lai..*
Guess what we ate?
The famous chicken rice balls!
And then on the way back…
Driver: Oh no, I’m caught again.
Me: WH-AAAT??? Again?!? *turn around only to see him digging his pockets for money again* !!!
Him: *sighing to himself and ignoring me* Nevermind, I’d like to see for myself that radar which can spot people from 7km away.
One minute later.
Mr Cop [little half-smile]: You ah, you were speeding, do you know that?
Him [little half-smile too]: Sorry Sir, can give chance?
Me: !!!!!
Mr Cop [taking the 50 RM]: Okay, chance.
Him: =P
Mr Cop: =P
*cue eerie Barney music: I love you, you love me, we’re a happy family…*
Upstanding law-abiding citizen me: *speechless*

Malaysia is one of the higher ranking in corruption rate. They didn’t allow me to pass the custom that time cos my passport photo doesn’t look like me. After my mom’s friend went into the office for 5 mins, I’m allowed to pass.
They just wanted some kopi-money! I’m ‘amazed’. Tsk tsk tsk…
huh! can’t believe that happened! thankfully my passport photo looks like me.. hee..
heard from some msian friends that this is very common.. kopi-money. lol..
