came across this cartoon in today's The Star newspaper
Another good example I've encountered would be "KDU college". When I was studying there, I've always thought it is rather weird; KDU actually stands for Kolej Damansara Utama and yet we often call it KDU college. This college is even registered under the name KDU College Sdn. Bhd. Why huh?

Must u ask?? I guess we know the answer rite.... Tsk tsk...
probably because they suddenly figured out that they are not in damansara utama but in damansara jaya instead, and to cover up the embarassment, they just shortened whatever it was to KDU in hopes that newbies don't find out what it used to mean. =P
