Comments on: Are you concerned about Tg Bunga hill-slope projects? http://anilnetto.com/governance/accountability/are-you-concerned-about-tg-bunga-hill-slope-projects/ Let justice flow like a mighty river Thu, 24 May 2012 17:09:29 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: George Aeria http://anilnetto.com/governance/accountability/are-you-concerned-about-tg-bunga-hill-slope-projects/comment-page-1/#comment-15580 George Aeria Wed, 07 Jan 2009 02:25:47 +0000 http://anilnetto.com/?p=2263#comment-15580 My input refers to Linda's comment above: - TO be fair to our YB Teh, ADUN Tg. Bunga, he has helped us quite a lot and has spoken out many times in favour of the residents in the Chee Seng Gardens situation. I know because I am part of the Action Committee working towards stopping all dangerous hill slope development in Chee Seng & Tanjong Bunga. We are not against development BUT only dangerous Hill Slope development that is contained in the JUNE 2002 Federal Government Guidelines as issued then to all State Governments for their notice. Let us all help out by pushing the relevant authorities in our own way, so that they realise that the general public DEMANDS such service from the State Authorities, and we let our ADUN play his role and if we see him helping us (i.e. the people who put him there in the first place) then we will keep him on. So far he has done that & I speak with first hand knowledge. In fact, YB Teh has even climbed up the hill in Chee Seng to get a first hand look at the situation and to help us see if the hill cutting had encroached onto State Water Authority (PBA) land and got lost a bit and called me for directions. Now that is a YB that shows some concern. He has also assisted by getting meetings arranged, attended them, spoke in favour of residents, and even helped passed along whatever topography maps that he has. So, let us give credit where it is due and to hit out at the proper parties (I.e. MPPP) who have started and caused (developers) such dangerous steep hill slope development.

However, it's also amazingly quick the government forgets and soon, projects restarts again, and people also forgets and buys those properties. It has been months that places like the junction of Chee Seng Garden, Ratu Mutiara, is flooded whenever heavy rain strike for a mere 30minutes. Tak pe lah..... cars can still get thru. Anyways.... it only happens during heavy rain-mah! We voted a kopitiam tauke to represent us. What would you expect from a kopitiam tauke? Speaks on behalf of us? I bet he only knows about cycling around the world. Yea... to places that has no floods. It’s amazing how quick the government halts projects when something bad happens.

Hill cutting activities adjecent to Taman Chee Seng to me still not yet stable and required immediate slope stabilization works such as safe gradient slope plus turfing to ensure the safety of the reseidents nearby. I am wondering why lately our government is concern about the cleaniness of the drain and road, earth drains, silt trap pond and etc rather than carry out detail study on the hill-slope at all the developments to determine the stability of the slope created. The stability of a slope cant be judge by only looking at the cleaniness of a project site, I really wonder what they did lately useful enough? Are MPPP Engineering Department know what are they doing? Are they qualified enough? Are they willing to take up all the responsibility?

It was quite disappointing to read today's Star, "Highland Projects Frozen" in which leaders in Pahang and Perak say they are putting the breaks on this type of development, while Lim Guan Eng does not seem to be responding in the same manner.
