Monyet lebih pintar dari manusia

 

Monyet ini di Safari Kruger Park di Afrika Selatan semasa kami memandu di sini. Dia pun tahu nak minta hitch-a-ride.

        Saya merujuk kepada berita dalam akhbar The Star Metro pada 20hb September 2022. Pekerja pembersihan kawasan Rimba Templer Park ini berusaha memerangi monyet, tetapi monyet lebih pandai pula nampaknya: 

        “We have tried tying the lids and fastening them to trees so that the dustbins would not be toppled over by the monkeys but they have learned how to untie the ropes.

        Itulah sebabnya kalau saya membuat kerja pembersihan saya pun rasa amat sedih, kerana fasiliti yang disediakan hanya menelan perbelanjaan yang tinggi tapi tidak berkesan.

Bin Besar untuk Lori Compactor lah!

        Misalannya, tong sampah hijau yang disediakan adalah untuk lori compactor. Satu bin sekurang-kurangnya RM300. Sepuluh bin pun sudah RM3000. Ikat dekat pokok pun, monyet lebih pandai. "They have learned to untie the ropes." 

        Kenapa guna bin besar seperti ini? Adakah lori compactor dapat masuk ke dalam rimba Templer? Bagaimana pula pekerja-pekerja dapat punggut sampah dari bawah bin tersebut? Aduh! 

        


        Bukan saja monyet yang kacau, tapi orang ramai pun tak tahu buang sampah ke dalam bin yang besar ini. Sampah penuh pun susah untuk dipunggut dan dibawa keluar. 

        Mengikut Puan Jenny yang membekalkan gambar-gambar di sini, di negeri Thai, mereka lebih pintar dari monyet. Cara yang mudah dan murah tapi Majlis ada minat tak untuk menggunakan idea mereka? 


        Satu bin dengan plastik sekali, satu lubang untuk orang buang sampah. Entahlah, mungkin monyet di Rimba Templer ini lebih pintar agaknya! Fikirkanlah bagaimana nak membantu pekerja-pekerja yang bertungkus lumus membersihkan kawasan sementara anda dalam pejabat hawa dingin. 

        Tong sampah di Takau pa, negeri Thai. Eh, jangan ketawa ya... Cara ini lebih murah dan efektif. Tidak ada aduan dari pengadu yang sama bila melawat ke Takau Pa. Tempat memang bersih. 
        
        TONG SAMPAH sebegini (hello, ini pun tong sampah, bukan?) pun boleh digunakan di sepanjang pasar malam dan dikutip oleh lori sampah dengan mudah daripada pekerja pada keesokan hari perlu lagi menyapu jalan. 






Gambar-gambar ini diambil sebelum jurufoto Star Metro dapat sampai ke sini. Sila lihat dalam pos-pos di sini.

FROM A BOUQUET OF FLOWERS TO A STANDING OVATION FOR MBPJ FOR DATUK BANDAR OF PETALING JAYA AND THE STAFF OF MBPJ!

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...

Selangorians are disappointed with the 25% hike in assessment rates

Image
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,...

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.

It is shared truly from the heart….
