5 Things We Wish Could Be Easier In Malaysia

---

People are never satisfied with whatever they have. But as we live in this developing country named Malaysia, we cannot expect for much comfort and convenience like other developed nations. Yet, we wish that there are things which could be easier in our beloved country.... Do read my wishes below

1. We wish... cashless payments were more accessible


Imagine going café hopping with friends, only to realise the last café doesn't accept credit cards, and you've used up all your cash

This is where eWallets could come in handy. In fact, all you would need to carry around is your phone. Not only can you take flatlay shots with it, you can even pay for all your meals with your phone

The only problem with cashless payments in Malaysia right now is that we have too many eWallets without a unified solution. Plus, not all cafés accept eWallet payments yet. Once we figure that out, paying with your phone will make life in Malaysia way easier

2. We wish... finding a parking spot wasn't such a hassle


Sometimes, finding a parking spot actually takes longer than driving to your destination

You've probably experienced going round and round to find a spot—typical Malaysian double, triple, quadruple parking doesn't help, either.
If there was an app or an easier way to find out which parking spots were still open, it would help save so much time

3. We wish... visiting the hospital didn't take soooooo long


Falling sick is never convenient, especially if you have to visit the government hospital

Even if you make an appointment for 10am, chances are you'll only get to see the doctor at 2pm because there are 10 other patients in front of you. That means you'll end up spending the whole day in the hospital

Of course you can visit a private hospital, but that would be another additional burden on your wallet. Either way, we wish hospital visits in Malaysia were easier to deal with

4. We wish... the Internet speed would be faster and more stable


One of the worst things that can happen is losing your Internet connection right before you want to send out an important email

Let's face it, Internet is everything. Without the Internet, you can't work, play, or even navigate to your next location. While free WiFi is becoming more readily available across Malaysia, having high speed and reliable Internet can still be a problem

Life would be so much easier if there was a telco that could provide fast and stable Internet connection, regardless of the time and place

5. We wish... owning a smartphone could be easier


It’s no secret that smartphones here in Malaysia are rather expensive

Some phones even cost as much as (or more than) a fresh graduate’s monthly salary. There are various postpaid plans that offer phone ownership programmes, but these still tend to add up after a long period of time

If only there was an easier way to get a new smartphone without burning a hole in our wallet
