Tuan Syed from Wangsa Heights Condo called to inform me that some boulders adjacent to the condo collapsed. The boulders came down to the condo building's carpark. The same incident had taken place last year on the open carpark which is just some tens of metres away from the location where boulders fell last year. Both incidents had damaged a car. And we are lucky that only 2 cars are sacrificed. Today's incident could have been a disaster if the boulders that came down happened to cripple one of the pillars of the building that houses the residents. The fact is, this is the same repetition of incidents and incidents took place due to the ignorance of our authorities. From last year's incident (similar occurrence) I understand that geological study was made by IKRAM. We all know that some methods of prevention would have been recommended... and it stopped there. The whole history repeats itself. As a rakyat, I am truly saddened by the way our government treat its rakyat. No authorities seem to want to learn anything since the collapsed of Highland Towers. When any of these disasters strike these places will be flooded with huge loads of VIPs to mark their attendances like school kids to sight seeing the place. The issue will take front coverage of all daily for 1 month or so and after that the victims are left to defend for themselves. Having said that we still continue paying our taxes. My family and I are evacuees who until today, still striving to live a normal life away from my abandoned home. We have been told we can go back, initially end of Oct and later was told Dec and last heard 'end of Feb'. JKR has its signage pillars built firmly at the entrance of the failed slope(Wangsa 9) has no courtesy of informing evacuees when we can go back or update us on the progress of work. The work on the failed slope is seemingly slowed down. We have been kept in the dark. One morning when I went to JKR office at ground zero there was no one there! Well, it is expected anyway... By the way, we really do live in a high, mighty and ambitious country where our leaders always cannot even seem to address basic issues of necessities of its rakyat. Likewise we being the rakyat couldn't even give a damp on any campaign our leaders promote. All these campaigns cost millions of ringgit are sucked out from our hard earned money.... Tomorrow is the 1st of Syawal, SELAMAT HARI RAYA TO ALL OUR MUSLIM FRIENDS ESPECIALLY TO HASRUL MPAJ OFFICER AND MPAJ STAFF. HASRUL IS ALWAYS THERE FOR US. Hasrul rushed to the scene once he was notified. He is one of the very few who has taken full responsibilities of his job. How wonderful if we have more replicas of Hasrul. He break fast with a packet of Yeo's offered by Tuan Syed. We would like to note our appreciation to state government for their prompt rental subsidies.
Thank you and regards,
