Any Colour You Like



Pink Floyd - Any Colour You Like
From the album The Dark Side of The Moon

In Henry Ford’s autobiography, someone asked why the successful T-model was produced only in black colours, and Mr. Ford answered :-

“You can have it any colour you like, as long as it’s black.” (rephrased)

The actual technical reasoning behind it was actually because black was more faster drying, and so since Model T was the first car to be produced by moving conveyor belts, black was chosen for all the T-Models produced by this process, to speed up manufacturing.

This trippy soundtrack was probably titled this way to convey the lack of choices in our life.

The reason behind this posting?

In Malaysia recently, some party criticised about the new Education Plan that was proposed by the Malaysia Ministry of Education.

The Education Minister instead replied “If you’re not so happy with education in Malaysia, the Government have no objection if you wish to send your kids to school overseas.”

Choices.
