Selangor Government- Image at risk, may God bless me!
Brief explanation of an issue popped up in Taman Wangsa Cheras.
Jabatan perhutanan together with Consumer Affairs & Environment of Selangor State Government( potfolio of Y. B Elizaberth) closed down the Bukit Wangsa Cheras. This bukit is frequent by near to thousands of trekkers on weekend. It is a reserved land and no charge is imposed on the trekkers. The trekkers consist of both the residents and also outsiders from all over the Klang Valley.
A press gave big coverage to this hill to introduce its spectacularity to its readers resulting in the increase of patron last two weeks. The residents staying nearby are unhappy with the noise n sound polution produced. they made complain to the state govenment.
Without listening to the others side of story, the state govenrment closed down the hill yesterday. I was informed by the resident to go over as this area is located just in my zone. i was surprise to know that not all residents are against this trekking acitivity. they all know well that, there is no suitable platform for health building, they need the hill. The residents who are also the trekkers are upset with the move by the govenment. At least the government should listen to both side of the viewpoints and not take action barely based on one side of viewpoint.
The trekking committee's advisor, Mr Lam has been trying to get the chairman of resident, Tan, to sit down and talk, but to no effect. Tan avoided Lam.
The political asssistant of Elizaberth , Khai Lun promised to arrange for a dialogue this coming week. All parties involved will be invited. Eli could not appear during the closure as she was away in Singapore.The trekkers and the residents were happy to know that a dialogue would be called.
Dear all,
know what? a day later, i was told that, Eli, who was still in Singapore did not agree with the proposal of having dialogue and she said to the press that- "The hill would not be reopened, no compromise!"
hey! this is an immature decision made without consulting all the parties involved! the trekking committee has got its proposal ready to solve all the problems, why the pakatan government does not even want to sit down and listen? as a Ahli Majlis, i want to listen but my position is just damn tiny to solve this matter!
Can anyone assist in this matter? we are now the government, we got to be mature in handling people related issue, listening to both side of stories brings no harm! the press will publish her comment tomorrow-" no compromise", and, state govenment will look ugly as protest will soon be carried out by the trekkers!
Selangor Government...at risk.....protest will surely be carried out by the trekkers, oh, before i forget, many of the trekkers are senior citizens who have retired and afford little expenses in keeping themselves well and healthy......may God be with me.......
