Pimp My City #4 🌁 @ElizaCheng 🌆 Xzibit Goes ASEAN 🌏

@JustinParke and Xzibit here once again, and we chose DCitizen and ASEAN Hiver @ElizaCheng for a Pimp My City 🌏 Malaysian style.

Congratulations @ElizaCheng 🙏

She's a dedicated member of the ASEAN Hive Community (my personal project) on Hive supporting Southeast Asian content. She's also the owner of her own DCity, and because she's such a positive force within the ASEAN Hive Community , Xzibit and I felt pimping her city is the least we could do.

@ElizaCheng's city is not a large one, but there is a bit of a crime, unemployment, and education problem, nothing Xzibit and I haven't dealt with before though.

After Xzibit didn't return my page, I contacted him via MySpace, letting him know we were gonna be off to land of "murtabak" and "jackfruit." That was a major mistake though, and I had to quickly explain to Xzibit that "murtabak" doesn't mean to get shot from behind, and "jackfruit" isn't when people stick you up for your bananas. After sorting out our misunderstanding, we determined that this town is gonna need serious attention, so we slammed some dragonfruit shakes and bought some economy class tickets bound for Kuala Lumpur.

Several COVID-19 tests and in-flight Halal meals later, we rented a Perodua and began driving to Eliza's town. Along the way, we stopped and ate some murtabak and jackfruit, finally proving to him they are foods and not violent acts.

This city needed some crime control, so we decided that 1x Police Station, 1x Job Center, and 2x Workers would bring this city into a much more liveable state.

We managed things efficiently and got all numbers out of the red, but of course Xzibit always throws in some surprises.

I told Xzibit real Malaysians love badminton, so Xzibit designed the Job Center to focus on producing the best badminton racket repair technicians in the country. Although I advised against it, Xzibit replaced all the Police Station's Perodua patrol cars with H1 Hummers.

Income is up (12.5%) thanks to the new jobs created by the police department and job center. The job center and police station both have also been outfitted with state-of-the-art jackfruit air filtration systems. Now trainees can bring their jackfruit indoors and and eat them without worry of stinking up the whole building.

Enjoy your newly pimped city @ElizaCheng. Unemployment has been stamped out and your crime rate will decrease upon your next SIM payout. Also, your immigrants and homeless should start turn into more productive DCitizens. Xzibit was quite happy with, so he treated us with badminton rackets and business class tickets and back to the USA.
