Support recycling effort - the Malaysian way

I drove to Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia yesterday. But look at the date on my highway toll coupon.

8 AUGUST 2007??!! It was the date exactly 1 month before yesterday.


I was a little worried initially when I saw the date, wondering if I could get into trouble when I exit the highway. But if this was what I was given, so be it. I reckoned that it was either the officer stamping dates on the coupon totally lived in the past or the toll tickets were just being recycled. Highly possible as I noticed that the toll coupon was not invalidated when it was collected back at the highway exit.

Not a bad "initiative" to support the recycling effort . So lame!

If they can use an August ticket in September, I'm sure they won't mind using it in year 2070! That is provided the tickets can survive through that many hands.
