SimCity to replace the current syllabus?


Tues, Kuala Lumpur- It has been decided today in the Parliament that all current existing and soon to be town planners are to study the celebrated game in the late 1990's, Sim City. In fact, in the near town planner license will depend on how well they do in the game simulation. The goverment are looking at an option of building a dedicated ranking server to determine which which town planner will keep their license for the year and who will have their license revoked.

"The current city expansion was done at a rate that is not at all syncronised. Housing areas are booming by the seconds whilst the public transportation system are only able to cater 15 percent of the city population", said Datuk Asymawi, Minister at the Prime Minister's Office. He added that the once addicted past time will be the only one true solution to the current massive traffic situation in major cities in this country.

The Chairman of the TownPlanners'R'Us Society, Mr Meballz Izhery, said "Extreme times calls for extreme meassures. And it has come to the time that the country should work with town planners that understand the game".He commented at a press conference as a response to the Parliament's decision.

"Though some the only set back to this training system is that some might use cheat codes in order to accomplish missions. But we, town planners work based on the Town Planners Code of Ethic and we would abide by it. We also have game moderators, just in case"


A member of the world renowned underground Town Planner clan, Ms. Nat did not agree with the sudden announcement.

"Not all of us has the luxury of the internet and some of us has outdated computer sets. It will not be a fair fight to all. I suggest rather than competing in the online world, we should compete in person as this is the closest thing. We should build sand castles instead!"

Datuk Asymawi also mentioned that TPR1MA has been structured and might commence next week at the earliest.

"Apa dia merepek? Is she an architect or a town planner? This is 2012, how are we going to compute on the traffic? Use ketam? Common sense lah"

He added, "Town Planner Rakyat 1 Malaysia is will be an aid to those who can't afford upgrade to their computers and a platform for them to register internet accounts. Yes we are looking for town planners with quality, and we are giving the not so fortunate ones a good fighting chance."
