Daylight robbery

One of my friends in the blogging community wrote indignantly a few days ago that shopping malls in the Klang Valley that allow Touch 'n' Go cards to be used for parking payment are collecting an additional 10 percent on top of the parking fees. I don't know whether this is also applicable in Penang or elsewhere, but I feel that the principle is wrong.

On one hand, we are all moving more into the paperless society and all governments are encouraging this, but on the other hand, there are sectors of society who see an opportunity -- an excuse -- to raise their charges. It's all wrong and consumers must resist this blatant attempt at daylight robbery.
