BUKIT LANJAN: Residents need not resort to this …

Bukit Lanjan residents need not resort to what a Thai woman did to get the attention of the authorities for municipal or other public services.

The Thai woman took a bath in a pothole to protest bad conditions in her hometown’s roads.

Gerakan Deputy Speaker Syed Abdul Razak Alsagoff said there are many pothole-riddled roads in Bukit Lanjan but “there is no need to resort to what the Thai woman did”.

“Just post your complain to this blog and I will see what I can do about it. The authorities who are responsible will surely hear from me,” he added.

Syed Razak said “it will help if you can attach a photo and share it with this blog. Please also let us know the exact location”.

“Alternatively, you can also join the ‘Bukit Lanjan Residents’ Facebook closed group and I will also act on your complaint and other future municipal woes.

“It is your right as taxpayers and ratepayers to demand service from the federal and local governments,” Syed Razak, who is Gerakan’s nominee to contest N.37 Bukit Lanjan as a Barisan Nasional (BN) candidate in the 14th General Election (GE14), said.

Syed Razak said: “We need to lodge complaints to the right authorities to get service going. There is no point in not doing anything and just sulk, remain frustrated and angry.

“Let all Bukit Lanjan residents cooperate, help one another and do something to benefit our neighbourhood and make it a role model community and a place to really call home.”

Here’s what happened in Thailand when the local government did not do anything about pothole roads in her village or residence:

"



Thai woman takes bath in pothole to protest bad condition of her hometown’s roads (PHOTOS)A picture of a woman bathing in a man-sized pothole in the middle of the road in Tak province went viral this week. Apparently, her natural mud bath was for a good cause.The woman, who Sanook reported to be a 25-year-old model named “Palm,” decided to take a protest bath after having enough of the condition of her hometown’s roads in Mae Ramat district.




Palm, who works in Bangkok, said that she comes home often to visit family and has to drive through these potholes.At first, she planned on showing the pictures only to her friends as a joke and didn’t plan to release the photos to the public.

However, now that they’re out there, Palm hopes that they’ll get the attention of the government agencies that can fix the roads.

According to Palm, there are more than a 100 households in her district that require using this route and it would help them a lot if they were fixed."

The recommendation on Thursday by the Norwegian Central Bank, which manages the fund, is potentially the biggest advance yet for a global fossil-fuel divestment campaign that has been promoted on college campuses and by environmental activists. It could also be a setback for the proposed initial public offering of the Saudi national oil company, known as Aramco, since the Norwegian sovereign wealth fund, the world’s largest, would be a potentially la

BUKIT LANJAN: DOSH and all related construction authorities must buck up It is quite obvious that something is not very right with the way the Department of Occupational Health and Safety (DOSH) and all related construction authorities are monitoring work safety at construction sites. There have been quite a number of tragic and non-tragic incidents at construction sites recently and yet accidents continue to recur despite DOSH’s claims that it has set up safety committees to tighten inspections. Gerakan Deputy Speaker Syed Abdul Razak Alsagoff said: “There was the woman who was crushed to death by a crane hook that fell on her Perodua Kelisa from 20 storeys up. “This was followed by the collapse of the KL Eco City pedestrian bridge that claimed a life. And now a crane has collapsed at the Bandar Damansara Perdana (BDP) construction site.” Syed Razak said such tragic and non-tragic mishaps at construction would not occur or could have been avoided if high and competent constr
