I think, I went to Sungai Buloh Hospital to get some treatment regarding my scoliosis and sudden fever I had yesterday. It was a coincident date where my roommate was having asthma too. I sent her and myself to get a proper treatment from the hospital.

After class, we both went back to the hostel, and on our way back, we caught few taxis and asked them about the price from our hostel to the Hospital. All of them said, it costs RM4 per trip. So, my roommate and I went to our room and got ourselves readied to go to the hospital. My roommate took some food and I had my bathed. Packed our things such as books as we planned to go to the class immediately after seeing the doctor. Yeah, I got nights classes which makes restless.

When we reached taxi station which is just in front of our hostel entrance, we saw no taxis were there. Maybe because of lots of people going out and the taxis were still sending them. Waited for about 20 minutes, my roommate’s asthma were getting worst, and I was afraid that she will collapse.

Soon I caught an empty taxi, I opened the door and the man asked where is my destination. I said that Sungai Buloh hospital which is just next to our college is my destination. He then suddenly said, “No…No… Pergi The Store je.. Tak da pergi hospital…” And then I said, “Tapi kawan saya ada asma la…” He replied me by saying… “Tak..tak… pergi the store je…“ He then shouted to other people offering his cab to The Store without any feelings of guilty not to send us to the hospital…

I felt like I want to shout at his face. How could he be like that? The hospital is just 2 minutes drives from our hostel. And it takes for about 15-30 minutes walking from our hostel. Soon we found out that no taxis want to send us to the hospital, my friend who was having asthma, and I myself who had fever and back pain walked down the road and reached hospital safely but in much more worst condition.

I felt so angry with those taxi drivers. They only think about money and not other people’s life. It happened like this maybe because of it’s only two of us who wants to be sent to the hospital, and if he didn’t refused, he will receives no benefits by sending only two persons to the hospital. I’m kind of sick of these kind of people. They shouldn’t be a taxi driver if they’re too choosy on passengers. After all, it’s still money, no matter how far and how many people were to be in his taxi. Bullshit old man! Gila duit punya taxi driver!
