The Prime Minister of Malaysia was in Miri to open a new flyover today, nothing special in that you may think but the building work on the flyover only started about 6 months ago. 
A second flyover is being built, currently about 2 months into the job and much of the basic structure is in place, this second flyover is expected to be ready by Chinese New year 2008 ( early February ). Back in Europe we might have just been getting the planning permission for the first flyover in the same period of time that the Miri authorities have built two of them. Although the safety systems are rather different from those employed back home.
