How often do you find yourself having to wonder what’s written on a road sign because it’s behind a tree or some overgrown bush that used to be a flowerbed which was supposed to be maintained by the local council?
It really is annoying, isn’t it?
Well, with an economic crisis looming, a town in Yorkshire, England, called Todmorden, has grown vegetables and fruit trees all over the town. Best still, they are all free for anyone to pick and take home to cook! This edible landscape is a million times better than the flowers and trees that are being planted by the various local councils – they don’t cost much to grow, and you help the taxxpayers. The only thing, being in Malaysia, they’ll have to find a way to stop thieves from stealing and reselling them in some market somewhere.
Whatever it is, this is the most sound thing to do now, and I certainly hope the vegetables in the local council can and will do something similar.

Hahaha, so true! Sometimes it’s sad to know how little faith we have on our fellow Malaysians… but seriously, who could blame us!
