Persistence Pays! Hump Removed after Three Years of Campaign

Image
A video which I just received from a friend tells the full story. He wanted to know what happened.  At last, common sense prevails.           To have a hump that damages the bottom deck of cars, especially cars with lower decks, simply does not make sense. Whatever the argument given by the Resident Association, the hump has finally been removed.            In fact, both humps should have been removed, but the one left behind is not as bad as the other one.           As I believe in harmony and co-existence,  I will first give the benefit of doubt for the moment, although I know that if the car is fully loaded with people, it will still hit this hump albeit slightly. If I complain, it will always be based on facts --- and I will be very persistent until the problem is solved.            Since MPS chose not to remove it for now, if it still causes problems, the council will once again have to mobilise its team of two trucks, one backhoe and officers' van just to remove one hump, lik

Is It Possible to Vote for PH at Federal Level, yet Vote Against PH at State Level?

  By Stephen Ng  Is it possible to vote Pakatan Harapan (PH) at the Federal level, yet vote against PH at State level?           The answer is Yes!           But do es this surprise you as coming from one who supports PH?            No, it should not. And I am certainly not a paid Perikatan Nasional cybertrooper based on all the articles that you may have read where I try to knock some common sense into both our ordinary rakyat and the politicians themselves.          I give credit to whom credit is due, but when a minister or a state exco underperforms, I will crack the whip, yet it does not mean that I would not support them. I do this for the sake of the nation, because we have had too many politicians who failed us for as long as we are a nation.  Clarion Call: "Be Humble."          Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim has kept reminding his ministers to be humble and stay in touch with the people.  The same clarion call applies also to the State exco and state assemblymen.      

Failure of the PH Government in Selangor

  This and several other issues not resolved in the past three years show why the local councils must be revamped and Selangor PH should be restructured before the state election, if it wants our votes. Please share this out.  Nearly three years have lapsed since a small section of road was turned into a one-way street. Humps like this built by Selayang Municipal Council (MPS), despite complaints, are not removed.           One excuse after another is given by both the local council. Previously, they promised newly elected MP, Gobind Singh Deo that they would solve the problem before the general election, then after the general election, then before Christmas 2022 but nothing happened even after the New Year.           The last was when  Gobind promised that this matter would be looked into after the Chinese New Year. This is what the local council promised him. The latest was when he told me that they would revert to him 'tomorrow.'            That was yesterday, and till toda
