Last time, I found out the reason why Kuching was developing so slowly when I encountered this road sign.
A few years have passed since then, but it seems like the construction firms here still haven’t learnt their lesson. As I was driving down the road today, I came across this other road sign.
Note to construction companies: I reckon your building is gonna take a loooong time to complete if only one man is working on it.
Word going around is that the seat of Kuching South mayorship is cursed.
Of the three previous mayors that we had, one went bankrupt, one had a stroke, and the last one passed away while still in office. Goodbye Mr Mayor.
LMAO! Seriously!
no work all play
Maybe it’s a one-man ‘Men at Work’ tribute show.
now that’s just funny..
hahahahah this entry was a good one! lol :p
but are construction signs typically like that?
Self-made signs. A waste of time and a showcase for ignorance. LOL.
the people are really working on the reconstruction of the road to matang though. around 1+am. before i got back i was there since my friend who had an accident had to be sent home. he lives there. going to bed now =)
hoho~ just read your tulan entry about the infringement of the first photo u have up there… now another 1 eh? hahaha… can i send to the star and earn ur RM50? >.
this time, SEND THE PICTURE TO THE PRESS URSELF. AND HIGHLIGHT THE MISTAKE.
SRY MY CAPS LOCK JUST BROKEN
LOL
Muahahahhaa… only in Kuching can see this kind of things 😛
dude, i don’t even see any of the “work” being done yet anywhere near the signboard. I believe the work was to chop the weeds there 😛
At least they have a job and still working…
应该是”Slow, Men At Work”。

Haha, anyway… Malaysian signboards are pretty “meaningful” since some of them are being direct translated from another language.
LOL ~~
I’m kinda confused who put the “Slow men at work” sign there..
The boss or… the citizens ?
Hahaha. I don’t see anyone there working at all. Lol.
Aw Kenny, give them a break. You make grammatical mistakes yourself :)… even in the very sentence u criticize them with! —> I think your building is gonna take a loooong time to finish if you sent only one man to work on it. —> it should be “send” dude hehe…
Aiyar.. NOT all construction firms in Kch like tat mar.. suay-suay u only see those low-budget companies nia. Think about TPK, not the type of person u’d wanna meet, but he’s bloody fast lor. Anyway, a good one there Kenny..
lol … funny signboards =D
Oics…. just one MAN working… that company is either going into bankruptcy or they are just plain stingy…. LOL
LMAO! Submit to the Star newspaper and you’ll win!
funny post =D
when are they going to put up women at work?
hahaha… soon Nicole..
actually u should be glad since they are using english…
Man at work, cutting cost lar… can’t afford to pay too many workers so one man working enuf lor and nicole, why do u think women shoud be at work? to replace men at work? so ridiculous!
yeah kuching. development’s so slow and with the passing away of the mayor… is the position really cursed ah?
i hate kuching
LOL!!!HAVE A NICE DAY!
lol..the picture that someone sent into the star and won rm50…and that someone is not you… wakakaz…
LOL…no wonder so uulu~
When there are a group of ‘men’ they are slow at work, when they are not so slow, its only 1 ‘man’!! Hahaha, that is hillarious! Its not only Kuching lah, btw, the whole of M’sia is like that… 😛
at the least, people can still figure out what those words really mean amidst the jokes n laughter.
mild.
好笑～
you rocks kenny!
hahaha u changed the last sentence bcos i pointed out the grammatical error?
sub contractors maybe ?
haha
Language blunders 🙂
I told my lecturer today about the PUKI bank here in Brisbane, she laughed out so loudly in lecture.
I bet she’s gonna put up the slide next week haha.
Enjoy the rest of the week, Kenny.

Lamely funny.

LOL! Maybe a group of ah gongs were working there. slow men at work..
lol~kenny!
you never fail to make me laughing my sss off!
XD
this is the 2 in 1 sign asking to slow down traffic as work is ahead u all dummies.
I thought you posted this post Before? I though i saw it some where in this blog…
kenny, want some funy thing? u go to the stationary shop along ban hock road, near EON Bank, there’s a shop that sells COCK for around RM3! ROFL!!!
i saw at the cupboard bag, written: “COCK, Rm3+”, but i can’t remember how much though.
i really paiseh to shot the word with my fone coz the old man shopkeeper is there. but still, that’s a WIN! ^^
What could be worst??
SLOW MAN AT WORK.
At least they put up a sign to tell u they are slow.
Here in KK, they need no sign board and everyone knows they are behide scadule.
..such as the stupid fly over which took 4 years to built (and still undone!).
nice one! ehehe

email me at mtsticker@gmail.com for more info
woah. you really look into such things ar. lol.
anyway the signs are funny. we don’t find such amusing stuffs in singapore though lol.
Ha ha..
That were they grammar mistake..
sometimes grammar really bring lots of trouble
i remember around ten years ago, i had read a magazine, it mentioned there are some famous tourism place. The one that i remember was the the temple at Thailand, the temple management set a notice to inform visitor to take off the shoes before enter the temple. The notice was like this, “PLEASE TAKE OFF BEFORE YOU GO IN”. What does it meant? DOes it meant you have to take off your clothes and walk in nakedly?
Another new that i had read was Singapore Lianhe Wanbao: Since the Olympic is getting near, most of the Beijing restaurant have change their meal menu to bilanguage. BUt they have did some mistake for the menu. For example: Gong Pao Ji Ding they called it as Goverment Abuse Chicken, Tong Zi Ji they called it Chicken Without Sexual Life, Ma Po Beancurd called as Beancurd Made By A Pock Marked Woman.
Oh my god, these prove that we have to be careful when using English.
He He…
i think what they are trying to say is , slow down your car (cause the signboard is at the roadside), man at work.
>>>SETEOBERI, LMAO IS LAUGH MY ASS OUT, HAHAHHA
Thanks Rennette… LMAO..!!
haha that is hilarious.. even tho its abit lame.
lolz… i’ve seen a road sign which said
SLOW
MANAT
WORK
and another
SLOW
MAN AT
WROK
goodness me.. i wonder what the tourist say when they read the sign.. so embaressing…
Don’t worry about the tourists. A lot of ang mohs have pretty horrible English too. I’ve been in the US for 7 years and some of the handwritten/handpainted signs can make you faint.
lol now thats funny 😀
i noticed this as well
LOL!!! One man at work. Ha ha!
