Taxi drivers responded predictably, demanding an apology.

The words and theatrics in this whole scenario are not important. The only thin that customers, whether local or foreign, care about is service and price.

Consumers of any product or service should be satisfied that they are getting decent service at respectable price.

The level of taxi service is a joke in Malaysia.

While we do not have the odd responsible taxi driver, whose honesty trumpeted in the press, there are just too many complaints about rude and greedy drivers driving dirty and dangerous cars.

A lady who had a dispute with taxi driver was left in he middle of nowhere. Other taxi customers complain of drivers who smoke In their filthy taxis.

“The taxi drivers is always right” is the maxim that many of these service providers seem to live by.

And what about price?

Residents of Penang, Ipoh and Sabah will tell you that the meter system has gone the way of NATO – No Action, Talk only.

Despite numerous promises to the residents of these towns and threats to cab driver, the authorities have not appeared able, or willing, to enforce what appears to be an easily enforceable rule.

In Penang especially, where the journey od a couple of kilometers could cost you up to RM10, the absence of the rule of meter is pathetic.

All the enforcement officers need to do is to get into any taxi and they would be able to nab a non-meter user. No one uses the meter.

How can the Government lament about irresponsible cabbies, when its enforcement in such a simple area has “INEFFICIENT” stamped all over it?

Maybe the enforcement officers themselves need to be lined up and dealt with by this innovative minister.

The North Pole of the electromagnet attracts the post of the south of the permanent magnet, and the post of the south of the electromagnet attracts the North Pole of the permanent magnet, and the movable pieces of the motor give return. When the North Pole of the electromagnet is closest to the post of the south of the permanent magnet and the post of the south of the electromagnet is closest to the North Pole of the permanent magnet, the commutator invests the current within the electromagnet. When the electrical present misfortunes, the posts of the north and the south of the electromagnet invest. The North Pole of the electromagnet is facing the North Pole of the permanent magnet, and the post of the south of the electromagnet does in front of the post of the south of the permanent magnet. In this state the magnets are rejected and the sides of the electromagnet are attracted the opposed sides of the permanent magnet, so the motor continues giving returned.
