BTS 2007

BTS(Building Trade Show) is here, 22nd March-25the March, 5th Floor, Permata Carpark. Thought of going there for a visit to cover the event but who knows the environment was so unwelcoming.

See the photo, you will know what I mean. The 2 security guards sitting there and on the right(not in the photo) is the registration counter. There’s a sign put up asking visitor to register for lucky draw before going in. I don’t think it’s that simple. So unwelcoming! Why must register for lucky draw? Not everyone wants to participate in it. Why force people to register, not everyone wants to give you their details! What is there so important in there that everyone must give their details before entering? What do you have in there? People want to rob you off your building materials? Or to avoid petty crimes like pick pockets?

I know BTS always have lucky draw for visitors and all these while it’s optional. I took part in it everytime and never win anything. Now it’s compulsary for those that go in. Summore placing 2 security guards there is making the atmosphere so tense! Not only that, the registration counter felt too formal. It’s deterring people from going in for a visit. We were so turn off by it and left without going in.
