Fireworkes light up the skies.

Fireworks banned in Malaysia? Yes or No? Seriously i don't know. Lame of me. Of course its banned.


However people still play fireworks over here. Loads of it. I think the popular ones are the mini fire works. It must have cost them a lot of money.  Its sad that people do defy the law. Even sad is when the law is not effectively enforced?. Yet, looking at it from a cultural point of view, playing fireworks has been very much been part and parcel of a communities way of celebration which explains why even an Act of law is not able to put a stop to it. If i am not mistaken, year after year the thunderous noise of fireworks being played is only getting louder. Looks like many people are forgetting of the ban despite the governments friendly reminder not to play with banned fireworks.


Alright, i better get some sleep now that the noise from fireworks has subsided. No joke, it was an 'awesome' one hour and 30 minutes of noise pollution. Awesome because its beautiful to watch the colorful crackers being played in the skies horizons from my window.
