Frustrating

After getting tired of the delay and getting very very frustrated, yesterday I decided to do some detective work with regard to my application for water and electricity for Danau Merbau. I drove to K Selangor to see the authorities myself to find out what's going on. What I eventually discovered make me feel even worse. Felt like I have wasted the past few months for nothing. 
For the electricity, the address was wrong but somehow TNB approved the application. So the process went through ( the poles and cabling all done) but when it came to the last step i.e. fixing the meter, it couldn't be done. Their computer system cannot accept because of the wrong address. That's why the delay. They  tried to do it manually instead but that also failed. Now it looks like I have to apply all over again, go through the process once more. Sigh.......
As for the water, the application has not even reached Syabas. To say I was shocked is a total understatement. On checking with the contractor,  I was told the application is still at the initial stage, i.e. getting the fundamentals right like the size of the piping, the height, the type etc. that after more than three months. What the f........ 
Later in the night, I called up a Syabas contractor I had managed to get through the internet and was told that the piping from the Syabas meter to the meter stand must be stainless steel. And guess what! The pipe supplied by my contractor is poly. Hmm.....
Now I am at a loss at what to do. Everything that can go wrong went wrong! Very very frustrating! Now it looks like it will be after Raya before I can move in. Terrible! 
I have to take these setbacks positively. In sha Allah, with a clear mind, I can get everything back on track but delay is inevitable.
