18 Things You'll Definitely Relate To If You've Ever Worked Or Lived In Putrajaya
Alamanda is your second home.
1. When people find out where you work or live, they always say "wah... so faaaar!"
2. When you tell them how much you spend on toll and petrol every month
Only applicable if you live in Putrajaya but work in the Klang Valley, or vice versa :P
5. There is no traffic
Rush hour in Putrajaya is like 10 minutes from Presint 14 to Alamanda instead of 3 minutes lol.
7. When they do make the journey to Putrajaya, you confirm bring them to the lakeside
It's free and pretty and great for pictures. What's not to like?!
8. You definitely got lost driving round the biggest roundabout in Malaysia at least once
9. Your date night usually includes bringing your significant other to one of the Insta-worthy bridges
10. Speaking of bridges, your friends always ask “Ooo, is your house near that cool bridge?”
15. Parking is a nightmare if you need to go to any of the ministries like immigration for passport or JPN for IC
16. But it's totally worth it because there are fewer people and you can get errands done really fast!
18. While everyone complains about how far the airport is, you chill because KLIA is less than 20 minutes away
