I'm Just Saying...: What is wrong with this picture?

March 30, 2012

What is wrong with this picture?

Woohoo. First it was that East Coast of Malaysia which was Terengganu yesterday and today what do I see?

Have we (Sabah and Sarawak) shrunk in size? Since when Pahang became almost half the size of Sarawak? Sarawak itself is about 80% of Peninsula Malaysia's size! Is this some kind of sinister ploy to send subliminal suggestions? What is the meaning of this?

Here, Pahang is only about a third of Sarawak's size

As though tv1 is saying, "Oh! They look bigger because of the distance. If we put them side by side with Peninsula Malaysia, you would see that they are actually smaller than they look!"

No, we are actually that big.

This is so maddening.

I personally don't think there's some terrible wrongs in that pic. That's called NTS (not-to-scale) and that happen all the time.
Unless of course, If the newsreaders verbally say it ("pahang is almost half the size of sarawak"), then that'd be total ignorance on their part!.

Well I think that they should be able to check all the information they will report for the sake of the people who are watching them. Thanks for sharing it.

First of all, if this is a background of the News Channel, I must say it's wrong, it provokes us especially from the East . Being shrunk to a size that they might consider 'as long as the viewers can see' yet not taking consideration on 'small matters like this' is offensive especially when our PM keep promoting 1Malaysia, and they are our media, pro Gov, so y not shows a bit of 1Malaysia patriotism spirit.. like they owes do when they 'turun padang' so ya, it's good to question even small thing like this because it really shows how ignorant they are. Being belittle, Being bullied
