GPS - 'Gila Punya Sistem'

recently i got a chance to sit in a car fitted with a GPS (global positioning system). fouyooh! that machine will show all the road in the map, and also show the way to the directed destination with voice.

"100 metres more, turn left."

alamak, very very 'song' leh!!! myself, a 'kampung' boy got so excited inside there. amazed with the machine. and my friend also so 'song' to show that thing. hey, it has the alarm system too, to alarm the driver if there is a speed trap.
wah...

so my friend wanted to go to a bank. he inserted the destination, and let the machine to show the direction. turning left, turning right. then many many turning... eh, the map was showing the destination. but there is no such bank over there...

still, my friend was not giving up. trusting the machine, followed the direction again. after awhile, still meeting the same place, and there is no such bank over there.

he got fed up, got down the car, then he asked the local people.

aiseh man... the bank is located another roll of shop lot. and it is not in the map. GPS - 'Gila Punya Sistem', fooling us everywhere. in the end, we still need to ask people, rely on the HUMAN GPS. and it is free of charge some more...

the human GPS, although it is not always trustworthy (somehow they will point to other wrong direction too) but it will be always there. just ask only...

just ask it!
