We really felt that tweet talking about 2020 keeping on giving. Hang in there, sir.
Public works department apologised
While the most regular rakyat like us who pay tax to keep the roads safe will get from such a tweet (even if we tag the relevant authorities) is sympathetic messages from friends and family, the minister got much more than that.
The Kuala Langat Public Works Department replied to Khairy's tweet, apologising and promising to rectify the situation as soon as possible.
