#A34 Aras Level B1

Do you ever get lost in the middle of a huge basement carpark which you don't know where you parked your car earlier? Especially after an excited shopping in a huge shopping mall.

Few ways people remember where they park their car... 

Way #1 - You remember where you come out from the carpark, which door you walk into the mall. Later you have to go back the same door. How to remember? Remember by shops~

Way #2 - You take a snapshot of the pillar where your car is? Remember the route back to the pillar, in case you forget, still can ask around.

Way #3 - Remember the pillar by heart and ask the buggy service send you to the pillar/car parked 

Which other ways you have come across? Of which way you usually do to find where your car parked after your exciting shopping in the mall.

High chance to ditch my Hong Kong trip

My friends and I have planned the Hong Kong trip for months and I'm looking forward to go to Hong Kong. I never been to Hong Kong other than Hong Kong International Airport which i have been there many times. If everything runs perfectly, this trip would be after my exam for this semester i.e. Oct 21st - Oct 26th 2014.

The "Potong Stem" news came about yesterday evening during my dinner with my friend. I was a bit upset as i have given an heads up to the MBA course coordinator to ask him to ensure we do not have any exam during the Deepavali period. As a result the an unofficial schedule drop on the Oct 22nd 2014. Sad eh~

It's not that i have to celebrate Deepavali like my Indian classmate, guess what? i was the only one who concern the exam schedule... So my Indian Classmate actually kept quiet when i raised my concern, one of them even challenge me as if I'm celebrating Deepavali... I told her, i'm not but i would like to plan a getaway from the city of potholes to the Pearl of the Oriental. (City of Potholes vs Pearl of the Oriental - which is your choice?)

Now, my plan has to put on hold until the final schedule is out... The air ticket to Hong Kong is going to be more and more expensive as the departure date is getting closer... and i might have to make a call on TO GO or NOT TO GO... What would be the decision?

...

Walao Wei~ Bus Driver @Singapore

Walao~

Did you see what i saw? This also happen in the FINE country eh~ I thought only @ City of Potholes... Muhahahah... The bus turned out from the bus lane and cut across two lanes to the outer lane with so many cars queuing for their turn. So, this is not only happen in the city of potholes but also happened in the FINE country too.

Friend A: Walao~ Must be xxx country driver... *all of us looking at the driver try to find out the driver is from which country
Friend B: It's an Indian not Chinese. So our perception he must be coming from Bangladesh or India...

Hmmm...  What do you think about those buses that break the rules. Do you feel safe to be on it?

TZ @ ambiguous period...

Reorganization, Restructuring, Re-mapping resources... are very common terminology in Multinational Companies. The more the workforce turns into global, the more political issues arose.  Due to the saving storm, most of the companies will keep restructuring and reorganizing until they reach the target or stay within the cost.

Guess what? I'm going to report to a different manager again after the restructuring of my team. Hurray~ This will be my 4th boss within 2.5 years with the company. Is it good or bad to me? Hmm... I think good is we get to have fresh start whenever there is a change but... Bad is obviously we need to re-adjust ourselves to new expectation from different boss. Style change again eh~. Sigh!

Anyway, whenever there is a restructuring/reorganizing... there will be an ambiguous period within the team. Lots of rumors are wondering around too. This colleague is going to resign, that colleague is looking for a better position outside the team (i.e. internal transfer). blah blah blah... So how true is that?

TZ is in the ambiguous period as he forced to leave the good manager whom he is reporting and could easily work well with . Now he has to start all over again to work out the expectation with the new boss... Good or bad?

when to say; where to start; what to expect; how to action; why?

LoL... this no longer on figuring where to visit shown in the picture above. It is the period on getting the 4W and 1H answered and plan out the right career path... :p

Starbucks cum Mosquitoes farm

Woke up early and followed my friends to klcc since my friend has something to do before the gym. I decided to sit by the Starbuck besides the aquaria klcc. Bought a coffee and sat at a corner.

All of the sudden, I felt the itchness at my leg and I stretch my leg and I saw blood. I was wondering what could it be at the same time I saw Mosquitoes flying happily.

I stood up and went over to the barista to seek for help whether she could do something about it.


Me: excuse me. There is lots of mosquito over here. Is there anything you could do to get rid of the mosquitos?
Barista: oh... sorry sir this has been known issue for about a month. The mosquitoes are coming from the aquarium.
Me: Hmmm...
Barista: Sorry sir that's nothing i can do now.
Me: It's okay. (Shown a unhappy face)

I was not happy and the Barista just walked away. I have no choice but just *piak Piak* here and there to wait for my friend. Later, few people came and the mosquitos seems like flown away to the next table :)

I was disappointed with the management of Starbucks and also the world class KL Convention Center (KLCC) for NOT taking any action of this deadly and dangerous mosquitoes which will cause the Dengue Fever... This is one of the reason why the Dengue Fever in Malaysia is increasing because of the management is not taking any action to solve the problem. If i were to have Dengue Fever in the near future, i will definitely sue Starbucks and KLCC for compensate of my suffering...

Has someone killed your wishes?

I went to FGS Dong Zen Temple with my friends during Chinese New Year. I passed by this nice wishing pond ... hehehe ... all the while i thought we only have wishing well but this FGS DZ temple has a pond filled with colorful water and people just buy the flower, wrote their name and made a wish... The more flowers in the pond, the more wishes there were from the visitors.

So, which flower is your?

All wished flowers floating on the wishing pond

If you notice this blog entry title... you must be wondering what wrongs with the wishing pond. Okie in reality... I don't think it works. Let me quickly introduce the Three Wishes Destroyers. Your broken flower that floating on the wishing pond .... So your wishes still come true or not? Anyone has bought the flower and place your wish in the pond.? Can you share with us whether your wish came true?

Three Wishes Destroyers
These three children really required education on what to do and what not to do... Hmmm... maybe their parent should be responsible on what has happened... Should we sent their parents to school?

Destroyer #1

Destroyer #1 : he broke the flowers :(

Destroyer #2: He picked up a flower

Destroy #2 : He threw the flower

Flying wishes across the pond... Whose wish?

So let me introduce the Destroyer #3... drum please ... *drum sound*

Pick up the flower

Aiming / Adjusting the target

Still adjusting while Destroy #1 already throw another one

On your mark get set ... Throw!

Did you see the flower flying in the air and the base (green) just drop?

Is this consider a broken wish or what?

Whose wish is that?

Anyway, i was so tempted to tell the children's parent off but later my friends asked me not to since i'm a tiger... So need to have low profile from time to time... TZ will be very low profile this year ... :p

BTW, please do not tell me they just a kid... I belief 3 of them at least primary... Didn't our teacher teach us not to touch certain things? blek~

So, what would you do if you see this situation?

12 x 2 = 24

I was working 12 hours a day for Thursday and Friday last week... supporting the Middle East team. I missed so many gym session and had to bare with hungry stomach for that two days coz i basically skipped dinner... Very sad that I got nothing out of the two days, not even a pat on the shoulder from my boss.. Is this worth or not?

Anyway, i shouldn't be ranting so much about my job. Hope if i'm not bore all of you. If i don't rant i might be feeling better, rite? Okie maybe i should stop talking about my job and bring all of you more pictures that i took. :)

Can i have this post dedicated to my lovely job? Errrr...

Inside my contract the working hour was stated 9am-6pm Monday-Friday. I'm currently doing support job and luckily my boss allow us to go in to the office in a flexible hour. So, nowadays i go in office at about 9:30 - 10am. But what time i come out from the office... Errrr... really depends on that day itself... whether there is any issue or not ... most of the time it has so much issues that forced me to stay back to ensure everything is as per expected... So i missed my gym and my dinner too. Sigh~

I'm currently in the mid of planning to make a change on how things being handled. Hopefully i could fix some of the hiccup due to communication and working culture. Let's hope i could get back my quality life soon... Ciao!

1Malaysia Hostel

Our lovely government is planning to build 1Malaysia Hostel to encourage unity among all ethnic to stay together and be unity. Will this concept work?

What would you think about the concept of 1Malaysia Hostel? I could not imagine how the concept is because i never stay in hostel during my life. When i was in University, my university did not have any hostel, we need to stay outside the campus.. btw, as all of you knew i was studied in Canada... they didn't have 1Canada Hostel too... according to my friends whom stayed in the hostel, you may choose your own roomie... blek~

Okie. Back to the 1Malaysia Hostel concept, i belief some of you are currently staying in the hostel or previously did stay in the hostel in Malaysia... what would your comment about 1Malaysia Hostel? Do you think it will work when our lovely government force the ethnic which came from different background, culture and religious to stay together in one roof? And asked the student to accommodate each other from various perspective... will this really work? I bet our lovely government really have to consider what is the impact of this concept. Please do not execute this concept until you have don't your research...

Anyway, don't put me wrong... i'm not against the 1Malaysia Hostel concept but i would like to trigger a discussion and look from the different angle and perspective of people that has experienced the hostel life in Malaysia. This would help all of us to further understand the 1Malaysia Hostel concept... Do place your comment eh~ Let's have a nice discussion on this 1Malaysia Hostel concept.

How hazy is your day?

Woke up this morning and realized our lovely city has covered by our annual companion from our splendid neighboring country... where is our fabulous twin towers?

My day was so unmotivated when i saw the groomy day from my balcony... help! help! please chase away our unwanted visitor... I wanna my nice and clear blue sky... Can we rely on our government to help us to ensure we have a good environment to stay? hmmm... must be a joke of the century if the answer is YES!


Anyway, how hazy is your day? I hope it's not as hazy as like our weather out there now... Cheer up! The weather is bad doesn't mean your life is bad too... Anyhow, everyone please drink more water and jog less outside.... it's important to take care ourselves in such a bad weather... :p I hope our lovely government is going to do something about this soon... it has been a known issue for years after years especially during this periods... I do see some open burning in my communities too... those people should be punished in somewhere on polluted the environment... oh ya... what has our government done on overcome this issue??? :p

A " L " License Driver

I was driving back from Summit after my gym yesterday... when approaching the Sunway junction near the intersection of LDP and the service road towards the federal highway, something interesting happened...

Picture taken from internet

The road at this stretch only allow the car from LDP turn into the service road to Federal highway... but lots of car driver just don't understand what the meaning of this sign... or they just ignore the true meaning of the sign... Sigh~ Sigh~ sigh~

Picture taken from internet

Anyone can tell me what is this road divider line tells?

Anyway, let's get back to the interesting incident... as I was driving and approach the intersection @ LDP and Sunway... there was this "L" license driver with her driving school instructor came out from a junction and joined into my lane... the driver drove like a snail ... it didn't matter... hehehehe... TZ usually was not in the mood when people came out from the junction and drove slower than a person walking besides the road.... :p Since this was a "L" license driver, TZ was so patient and following her at the back. Suddenly, this driver turn into LDP without giving any signal... FAILED! Secondly, the driver not suppose to turn into LDP as the divider was a straight line and a dotted line ... the straight line was on our side... Another FAILED!

To my extremely surprise, the driving school instructor actually instructed his student drive over to the LDP (refer to the road divider image above) from the left to the right... I was so soooooo sooooooo shocked... How could the driving school instructor taught his student that? It's so SALAH... the JPJ should have taken away the driving school instructor teaching certification for this terrible and serious mistake. The driving instructor should go back to school...

Now, I finally understand why our country have so many accident and the driver tends to cut in and out of not a bid to the law... hmmmm.... the driver can just said that my driving instructor actually taught me like that... Too bad i don't have my camera with me... otherwise i will report this incident to JPJ and get this driving school and his driving instructor suspended and blacklisted.... bad bad driving instructor.

So, how's your first experience when you learning driving? Is your instructor actually taught you not to a bid the law... cut in and out here and there? ... :)

Is our voice faded... or just got covered by the noise

This might be a lengthy entry... but please go ahead and spend some time to read through this as this is the voice of the resident who stay near the irresponsible DUKE Highway Construction company who polluted and took away the quiet moment of the residents ...

Noise Noise why are you following me... I wanted a quiet moment in the evening... but the noise was kept bothering me ... first is the party @ downstair of my condo, Secondly is a bunch of noisy people shouting away in the quiet Starbucks... but the worst was to have to bear with this Bolehland Mighty project Duke Highway construction noise pollution.

This is how the noise in the morning within the working hour slot everyday ... which i could not make too much of complain and the only place i could avoid this noisy is bunk myself in Starbucks everyday. Sigh!

When i came back in the evening... The noise continues... hey, how could this happen as the DBKL authority have already set guideline that there is no work after 6pm and no work on Sunday too...

Starting last Saturday night (Dec 13th 2008), the DUKE highway construction company has became worst...they has started to ignore resident's complain and just went ahead with the construction. The work overtime thingy has continued through until yesterday (Dec 18th 2008)... The noise was unbearable especially after a stressful day in the workplace ... when came back home still need to bear with the noise @ home.

December 13th 2008 - Saturday

DUKE Highway construction company has continued its operation until very late at night which they basically has ignored the resident's complain and came back with this text

" I have checked with my contractor no one is working. Maybe its the KTM project."

No doubt, there is a KTM project but there was not work done on that night. I was standing from my balcony and i could overlook who is working and who is not. Moreover, since when the KTM project went over to help out in the DUKE highway project ... what a joke!

And here is the truth and i took this from my balcony...

Please don't ask me what are they doing ... I'm not in the position to answer this question but even a kids also know they are working on something and it's definitely not KTM who were working... Is not a railway track eh!...

December 14th 2008 - Sunday

Sunday! no work day right? No! ... the construction still on with all the knocking, banning and even the machine... again, the resident did not have a peaceful Sunday... Sigh! Especially the condominium as voice travel up and amplified... the highest the louder it is ... again no action was taken ... construction still on.

Lots of knocking and hammering, sawing etc...

Crane is working on digging ... errrr... another noise pollution.

Even work @ Sunday night :(

December 15th 2008 - Monday

This was an interesting day ... why i say so? We received a notification on the text from our lovely DUKE Highway Construction company

"we are still concreting bored pile @ condo area. Pile 23m deep. Works delay due to drilling machine breakdown. Work expected to complete by 9:00pm. Sorry for the inconvenience caused. from XXXXXX"

I went back about 8pm what i noticed it was not only concreting the bored but they were doing all others stuff... And immediately the resident launched a complain again as it was too noisy even more noise then in the morning... It got worsen then the other two days. Basically they have totally ignored us... Just wondered whether is our voice got faded ... *Sad Sad* Again without failed i took couple of pictures. Btw, as a resident, shall we pity them as they were basically playing a fool on us... thought we don't know what is concreting the bored means... hey Duke Highway Construction project director.. please do not think we are dump... :-(

This is bored pile concreting... I agreed!

Is this bored pile concreting too beyond the ground... hahahah, joke of the year?

How about this ? Bored pile concreting eh!... What a big joke?

What were they doing? Only the DUKE Highway Construction Company knew...

Bird eye view of the construction company work over the allocated working hour

December 16th 2008 - Tuesday

Again ... the same thing happened in Tuesday... I was not at home so i didn't take any picture One of my friend from the neighborhood did took this picture shown that they were lying again on the concreting bored pile... Should we belief them again in the future ... What should we do to stop this nightmare?

December 17th 2008 - Wednesday

The Duke Highway Construction person contact basically switched off his phone... I could not get hold of him but i managed to get hold the operation director and commanded him to ceased the operation immediately as it's was over the limit. Already 5th day on the row. Later the committee has decided to wrote an urgent letter to DBKL to request the DBKL to enforce the guideline on this construction site....

Working after 6pm on bored pile... :( concrete truck still delivering.

Violated DBKL guideline - working over the 6pm

December 18th 2008 - Thursday

I went back about 8pm, still they were working as i managed to take another shots of light on construction sites... what are they doing? Please ask the DUKE Highway construction... wheather they tell the truth or not ? You have to judge yourself as the residents have lost trust on the construction company.

What are they doing? errrrr... I have no idea

December 19th 2008

Will they work overtime again ... Yet to know but i would say likely they will work overtime today too... given outside is raining now. Sigh! another day of none quiet evening.

Anyway, it's a nightmare for the residents near the DUKE Highway Construction site... With the lose control from the authorities has even placed an additional nightmare to the resident... I wish the authority could enforce the DUKE Highway Construction company to a bid to the construction working hour guideline and help the residents to gain back their peaceful evening. The residents in need of this as after the whole day of noise pollution and stressful day @ work.

Noise Pollution...

Annoying neighbor (not my direct neighbor) who were throwing a poolside wedding party... has produced unbearable noise pollution to the whole community. The music was blasted super duper loud as if i switched on my own radio @ my own unit. 

9:00pm: The moment i opened the door and walked into my unit... I heard loud music. I was surprised that my parent were listening to the radio... when i listened carefully it was some tamil songs... errrr... then i realized the sound was coming from downstair.

9:10pm: I didn't bother to make any complain as i was busy washing my gym clothing at the same time taking my shower. 

9:30pm: The music was getting louder and louder until i could not stand anymore... that's it TZ was going insane with the music if he's not complaining on the loud music. I straightaway picked up the intercom and called for the security guard @ the guardhouse.

Security: Good evening, May i help you? 

Me: Good evening... Yes! I just wondered is it possible to request the party organizer to slow down the music. 

Security: Sir, they are having the wedding party @ the poolside.

Me: I know...

Security: But sir... it's a wedding party...

Me: Wedding party, so what? they don't have the rights to blast the music and bother the whole community. I would suggest them to slow down the music immediately... (my tone was a bit unhappy, i belief the security guard felt that)

Security: Sir, let me handle and get back to you.

Me: Ok! Thank you for your help. 

I just hang up the intercom caller back to the wall. I told my dad that i would give the security guard about 15mins to settle the matter before i launched my 2nd complain. I patiently waited for the 15 mins.

9:45pm: The party was getting even hotter and the volume of the music was increasing rather than decreasing... moreover, the party organizer had triggered a mini fireworks @ the poolside which i personally thinks that it's too dangerous to have it especially within the 4 blocks of the high rise building. I was so pissed and tried to take a picture unfortunately i was too later. When i was about to call the security and launched the 2nd complain. The loudness music has slowed down. No complain needed :) 

Guess what? The security didn't even get back to me, anyway, they have solved the issue... 

Dear Security, thanks you for the quick response... 

The loud music didn't bother me anymore... 

10:15pm: The music was bearable and hardly could hear it from my room... Half and hour later the music has totally stopped. We have gained back the quiet Thursday night.

Anyway, I'm going to pay a visit to the management office to iron two main items
1. Request the management to have a house rules on how loud the volume of the music could be for every single party @ the poolside. In regardless of which day of the week.
2. No fireworks display within the premises. This is for safety concern. The condominium compound is too small to have fireworks display.

As i got up early today to drive over to Fitness First Axis for my gym session. I was planning to hit the bed as early as 10pm but until now i still could not fall asleep... i bet i was so pissed off with the noise pollution... sigh! 

What a noisy and pissed night!

22 Suggestions for SUCCESS

As i was reading and wondering through the internet at Black Canyon Coffee place @ Klang Bukit Tinggi. There was this poster that hang beside the table caught my attention which stated 22 suggestions for SUCCESS by H.Jackson Brown Jr.

5. Be forgiving of yourself and others

6. Be generous

8. Persistence, persistence, persistence

9. Discipline yourself to save money on even the most modest salary

10. Treat everyone you meet like you want to be treated

11. Commit yourself to constant improvement

12. commit yourself to quality

13. Understand that happiness is not based on possessions, power or prestige, but on relationships with people you love and respect

20. Take good care of those you love

21. Don't do anything that wouldn't make your Mom proud

22. Drink Black Canyon Coffee not Starbucks. 

Guess what? The last statement actually caught my attention ... I remember H. Jackson Brown Jr. have only 21 suggestions for SUCCESS errrrr... today i saw the 22nd suggestion... "Drink Black Canyon Coffee not Starbucks" hahahaha... did H.Jackson Brown Jr added another new suggestion? Yet to find out but i doubt so... :p

So what do you think about the 22nd suggestion for SUCCESS ? Don't ask me why H.Jackson Brown Jr commented this... I guess the 22nd suggestion has been placed by Black Canyon Coffee Place owner... Can H. Jackson Brown Jr sued the owner for do this?

2.55 <-- what is this?

What is 2.55 means to you? The 2.55 is the RM2.55/Litre. Our lovely Bolehland government has just adjusted the petrol price from RM2.70 to RM2.55... Is this because of the Permatang Pauh's by election or just because of the cruel oil price dropped?... Our bolehland government claimed that the petrol price dropped is not due to the by-election but why the decision is made 5 days before the by-election, why not only announce it next Wednesday... what do you think? BTW, hey if i'm not mistaken the crude oil price has increased to USD120 per barrel on Friday, so what and when will be the next announcement on Petrol price... after the Permatang Pauh by-election.... muhahaha... 

Anyway, the price of the petrol has dropped to RM2.55 but how about other goods and services... will they drop the price too? I don't think so... You know what ... Malaysia inflation rate has reached 8.5% which is all time high. As for a person without salary like me ... how many more days I could survive... *Sigh* :-( 

Faulty Report Closed without issue solved...

My Streamyx connection is still down... This is the 3rd day without internet connection. Guess what? I called up TM NET a moment ago and check on the status of the the Faulty report that i have launched on last Saturday... The answer that the person whom attended me was " Sir, the report has been closed and the problem have been solved". "What?" i still could not get the streamyx connection" What is this... I was extremely unhappy when i heard this statement. This was not acceptable... no one actually call me to check whether my connection is okay before closing the report.  *sigh*

If i was not calling them a moment ago, this problem will drag for days maybe months and years... so how efficient is TM? Can we get any compensate for the time that the connection down? 

Anyway, we need to thanks to the stupid and short sighted leaders in the Malaysia Boleh Government. They have led the citizens on suffering for so much inconvenience ... 

WE REALLY NEED A CHANGE... 

Is our voice heard? Is the construction safe?

The resident whom stay near to a Duta Ulu-Klang Expressway (DUKE) construction has complaint about the road crack. One of the committee member has phoned me on Monday night asking me to pay a visit and take some picture of the road cracking... at the same time, looking at the fencing which encroached half of the lane of the heavy traffic road. 

Road cracking and the fencing is encroach half of the lane

I quickly took couple of picture and noticed another prompt danger point after the pillar completed. The pillar will stands @ the edge of the road i.e. just besides the road. If you take close look at the picture below, if you notice there is a junction which allow car turning out.. Whenever the car turned out... there will be high chances that the car will hit the pillar. I recorded a quick video clip when i turned out from the junction. See how dangerous :-(

Future Pillar @ the edge of the road... further up there is a junction

Close up view on how the future pillar @ the edge of the road

more picture>>

I was disappointed with the DUKE Highway concession as they are not taking care the environment even though the resident committee has raised this concern during the last meeting... Is our voice heard? 

Moreover, I was extremely pissed with the construction site working later more 50% of the week even in a good weather like these few days. Reason being, according to the last meeting with the concession, the resident committee has raised the concern and the concession has explained that they would have to work late due to rain... But given these few days, not a single drop of rain in KL... I'm so curious what would be their excuses this time for working late... "The sun is too hot" ... hahaha very fun :-( Just to give you some information about working late... before the last meeting, they have been working day and night until 11pm and when we file a complaint, they ignored all of the resident committee's complaint call... The quiet communities has been polluted by the noise from the construction site in late night. As the noise travelled upward, the resident whom stayed in the condominium even suffered on louder noise pollution. So, what do you think?

Anyway, this is a list of serious and urgently issues/items that needed attention from the concession. Hope the concession could close these item as soon as possible since the residents have raised these issues...

1. Road crack near the construction site

2. Dirt flying @ the surrounding area 

3. future pillar which will prompt to accident

4. Working late for 50% of the week in good weather

Desperate To Win; Fear To Lose

For the past 13 days, as a voter, we were tortured by those advertisements in the Radio, TV and Newspapers. The advertisement repeated itself within 1 mins... why the BN party so desparate to advertise their accomplishment? How much do you think it could impact the voter to vote for BN... I personally felt the BN party is DESPARATE TO WIN and FEAR TO LOSE at this moment. They are afraid to lose the power over to their opponents.

So, as the Malaysian voters, what do you think about the BN party advertisements in the media? How do you feel about BN party's strategy? Is BN Party democratic?

Hug & Kisses has gone, disappeared...

My buddy got a box of hugs & kisses last Monday from his secret admirer... Who? I don't know. Due to most of the hugs & kisses were melted... he decided to cool those hugs & kisses in the chiller @ our office pantry.

Yesterday, my buddy wanna to send his hugs & kisses to everyone in the office. He realized almost 1/2 of his hugs and kisses has gone. He kept mentioned about some rats in the chiller. So we still don't know who has taken his hugs & kisses... :->

Is safety a concern?

Since the construction of Duta Ulu Klang Expressway (DUKE) started two months ago. There were lots of complaints and inconveniences caused by the construction of this highway in my neighborhood and the rest of the neighborhoods. Safety is always a concern from the resident near the construction area... but for the past two months, safety did not seem likes one of the focus area by the highway authority and the construction management / company.

I'm upset with all the safety caution / steps that the management have taken within the construction sites and its environment. The construction company did not take into the consideration on the safety of the resident as the heavy vehicle such as cement trucks were carrying out the load in and out from the entrance near the residential area. This entrance is the entrance that would post a life threatening to the young children whom stay in the surrounding area. Why? The cement trucks were driving throught the narrow resident road and this road is quite busy with cars, cyclists and people walking in the sideway near the houses. In additional those people whom stay in the house within the area would also risk their life as well when they reverse their car out from the yard.

Here you go the short clip that i took from my balcony...


My neighborhood was so disappointed as we had raised this up when we had the meeting with the highway authority and the construction company not to use the entrance near the residential area. I wish the highway authority and the construction company could act on this before something has happened or any of the resident life has been taken away by the heavy vehicle.

Be proactive and be safe.

Bolehland mega project in KL - Duta Ulu Klang Expressway (DUKE)

Bolehland decision maker has planned on this highway two years ago... finally, the highway has come and it will be going to build near my condo... :-( I had a great concern on how safe is the highway building so close to the residential area. I strongly belief this will only happen to bolehland... if you have a chance to visit Canada, US and China... this scenery will not be seen as they make sure that all the highway will have a certain distance from the residential area. Bolehland decision maker, can we make this as a tourism place of interest?

How safe do you think if you are staying so near to the Tenaga National Berhad (TNB) [electricity] pyron?

Today, there was a case that one of the arm from the pyron fell into a house underneath it another hanging there tangling. This house has been here for nearly a decade but recently because bolehland government has approved a concessionaire to build a highway in an extremely constraint piece of land. So all the right a way has been used for the highway and the electricity pyron, what it left was nothing to the property besides this land. I'm not sure but i think the bolehland will be the first country which approve the pyron/electricity pole run parallel above the highway. What do you think? Is this safe for the road users? especially all the oil tanker... how much risk will this highway bring to the road users and the surrounding community? ... Bolehland decision maker will ignore all this safety related until something happened that involves life (20-30 people died because of some safety issue). Then they starts panic and come out all kind of fantastic explanation to answer questions ;-) This is because of mother nature ... hey mother nature, you had been blamed for taking people life you know ... what a joke right? Anyway, i would not wanna to comment too much here. Just see for yourself on some of the picture that i taken. I circled in red is the arm of the pyron.
