Aku nak kupas sikit dari dua segi. Pertama segi penulisan, dan kedua segi pelaksanaan.
Untuk penulisan. Apa kata, daripada di kondem anak muda yang berbasikal didalam surat khabar nombor satu diMalaysia, kan lebih elok kalau ditulis dengan cara untuk create awareness of the new trend. So that government and local authorities will do something about it. Contohnya, kau tulis tentang sejarah, trend fixie sedikit and then give suggestion how can government help to make bicycle riding more safe in Kuala Lumpur. Or perhaps give some examples of cities yang ada implement such thing. Will be a much better article, ye dok?
Untuk pelaksanaan. Kan lebih elok daripada dikondem, dibiarkan masuk berita hairan dan rancangan 999, lebih baik dibuat projek circuit berbasikal seluruh bandar Kuala Lumpur ke, hari berbasikal sekuala lumpur ke. Atau apa-apa projek yang bicycle-related. Jadikan ianya bandar yang bicycle friendly. Bagi aku it's much better for them to cycle daripada merempit. A new trend that is to be celebrated and not condemned.
Make the city more community and socially friendly. Then reduce the number of vehicles on the road. Cuba ikut macam ex-mayor Enrique Penalosa ni. Macam mana dia boleh tukar his 'drug-city' into something different. Cerita about bandar Bogota, Colombia sepatutnya ditulis dan dikaitkan sekiranya journalist nak cakap pasal transportation sistem. Bukan quote cakap abang hampir langgar adik-adik berbasikal tengah malam sahaja.
I know that the article written is true in many sense. Aku sendiri kadang-kadang menyumpah kalau jenis rider yang tak tengok kiri kanan, kita pula nak kena perhati dia. But the article that she wrote, doesn't offer any solution at all. It's an article to condemn and buat controversy. And I believe, there are much better way to write the article from another angle. But what to expect from Berita Hairan, kan?
Inilah akibatnya kalau jadi journalist tapi tak rajin membaca, aku rasa.

yeah , agree with it :)
ReplyDeletespot on, mate. lepas ni apa pulak? nak kondem budak main bola atas jalan tar sebab menganggu lalu lintas?
ReplyDeletedhiahlah: ;)
ReplyDeleteavid gunner: tak masuk akal, siapa yang tulis artikel macam ni.
those newspaper are profit oriented. derang bukan peduli apa. janji tajuk n content boleh jual. that's it..
ReplyDeletebetul.
ReplyDeletetingkatkan kesedaran dari kalangan penunggan basikal sendiri. macam kt nz mmg rmi cyclist, dan semua pun boleh ikut rules. mmg lama, tapi sikit2 lama jadila habit
ReplyDeleteOrang Akaun: Being profit-oriented is not an excuse actually. Semua newspaper even dekat UK ni is profit-oriented. Still issues yang ditulis byk yang bagus-bagus. I guess maybe rata-rata rakyat Malaysia masih minat dengan artikel-artikel macam ni, kerana itu their target is such topic.
ReplyDeletePisey: Right
Att: That's also another good issue to raise.
good point of view. :)
