Petaling Street part 2: The Street DVD seller.

Back then, a few weeks ago.(Dont bug me just because I'm writing a story that is few weeks ago).

It was a nice sunny Friday. (and hot also) I had a 2 wee hours break due to the Bumis have to go for sembayang. So I went to Petaling Street to have my fantastic VeGeTaRiAn meal.

Usually when you come to Petaling street, you will come over a white DBKL truck that always park right next to the Petaling street "China Town" sign.

As you all already know, the purpose of this silly truck is to allow DBKL to have a mobile office there, so that they will always be there to catch pirated DVD sellers. (There are also a few DVD shops inside the S&M building and Kotaraya across the road selling pirated DVDs. But our DBKL "Swat" team doesn't seems to bother them at all. It is strange that why the law enforcer only take care petaling street but never to those outside Petaling street. )

As mentioned earlier, it was Friday, and our "Software Raiders" are not there to catch those DVD sellers. Probably because they also went for praying.

This was the first time I saw Truck was not there.Guess what happen next when I walk into petaling street? I can saw all the DVD sellers started to setup their mini stalls and starting selling DVD openly.

There is a term to describe this scenario, "When the Cat is not here, the mice come out to cari makan."

End of my story.

if you find this boring, and you want to file a complaint please click comment hyperlink. :P

I heard that they catch the seller only at certain times, also some sellers get away by paying bribes, then the DBKL will not kacau them.
