SELANGORKINI: SURAT TERBUKA KEPADA YB MENTERI BESAR SELANGOR

Once a government is there for too long, the lackadaisical attitude sets in.       When one of its local councils Majlis Perbandaran Selayang fails to solve problems on the ground, the state government should act but unfortunately Selangor State Government has also shown it no longer cares.       The MPs from the DAP, in particular, try to justify its own Party members: Nga Kor Meng (minister of housing and local government), Ng Suee Lim (state exco in charge of local government), Gobind Singh Deo (member of parliament) and Calvin Cheong (local councillor), saying this is a local issue.        It is a small issue but it has taken me more than 6 years of highlighting this. Promises to solve a lot of these problems made by Gobind have not been kept despite many rounds of reminders.         Bukit Lanjan State assemblyman is Phua Pau Ling is from PKR. MB Amiruddin Saari is also from PKR, but no one can apply pre...

8 January 2025 FINALLY, after complaint reached the ears of the Datuk Bandar of Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ), work has started to clear the heaps of construction debris at Jalan Tembaga in Sri Damansara Industrial Estate.      The response from Datuk Bandar shows that work may have to take two days to complete. A total of almost six tonnes of construction debris had been dumped here at the site for a number of years. 9 January 2025     Credit must go to Datuk Bandar Tuan  Zahri Samingon and the team of people who worked very hard today to clear construction debris. Yesterday, after taking this photograph, I sent it to Tuan Zahri just to show him the extent of the dumpsite. Around the same time when this photograph was taken, I noticed a young man taking photographs of the site as well. I guess it must have been the staff of MBPJ.     But why is this dump site left here for so many years? When I passed by the place, someone told me that contra...

  I find it very shocking that a Selangor state exco has recommended  that everyone attending concerts in the state of Selangor be screened for drugs.     This is, in my opinion, a sad state where leaders have not given much to what he was saying. The  suggestion is not only laughable, but it does not augur well with someone holding such a position. He  should, in fact, refrain from making such a statement.  Knee Jerk Response      Most concerts for New Year's Eve attract big numbers of participants. The State Local Government and Tourism Committee chairperson Ng Suee Lim's suggestion is at best another "knee jerk" reaction to the deaths at a New Year countdown concert.     In fact, I have a number of questions to ask Ng:  (a) Who will pay for the urine tests? Will it be charged into the tickets? Or, will the state government pay for the urine tests? (b) How will the SOP take into consideration the number of people th...

7hb Januari 2025 Yang Dihormati Datuk Bandar MBPJ, Semoga Datuk Bandar dapat mengarahkan pihak MBPJ untuk membersihkan sisa-sisa bahan buangan dari kerja-kerja pembinaan yang sudah lama dibuang di sini supaya dapat memastikan air yang bertakung di tepi jalan dapat mengalir ke dalam parit /anak sungai. Sekian, terimakasih. --------------------------------------------- Updated on 8 January 2025:   https://surat-terbuka-mb-selangor.blogspot.com/2025/01/a-bouquet-of-flowers-for-datuk-bandar.html ---------------------------------------------------------------- ================================ 13 December 2024 Writing at 2am, don’t expect me to edit the work. It is shared truly from the heart…. Just for illustration purposes A friendly Pakatan Harapan leader has given his feedback to my post about the state of Selangor now.           "I wish I could see who you'll vote," he wrote.           Although we have not met in person, I...

THE PEOPLE of Selangor need a government where its leaders are more concerned about the welfare of its citizens.        Despite being the richest state in Malaysia, many of the citizens of this state are still struggling to provide for all the needs of their families.         Many are still miserable, especially the elderly. During the Covid-19 pandemic, the Selangor State Government did not even give any assessment tax discount to the people of Selangor that it claims to “love.” The People Are Miserable Now       For 20 years, the Selangor Government is governed by Pakatan Harapan, finally the same as the Barisan Nasional era where the people’s objections to the raise in assessment rates are no longer the priority.      During the time of Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim, with his “merakyatkan Ekonomi Selangor”, the Selangor government with most of the reform-minded leaders was a beacon of hope for Malaysia, but in my opinion,...

Pada waktu pandemik Covid-19, Kerajaan Negeri Selangor tidak pun memberi sebarang diskaun cukai taksiran terhadap rakyat Selangor yang disayanginya.  Rakyat Sengsara Sekarang          Selama 20 tahun Kerajaan Selangor ditadbirkan oleh Pakatan Harapan, akhirnya sama juga dengan zaman Barisan Nasional di mana rakyat tidak lagi diutamakan.           Pada ...
