This is another piece of good news that I would like to share with you guys.

My reply:

Good afternoon Mr. Tay,

This is indeed a good news to the residents concerned. We hope the project shall be supported by the State and Federal Government in term of funding to expedite the construction of the road. If the authorities leave the financial part entirely to the developer concerned, it might be a little too slow.

On the contrary, we would appreciate it so much if the City Council could expedite the issuance of Occupation Permits to the new housing areas around Taman Tunku, Taman Jelita and Holiday Park.

On copy to YB Tuan Fadillah, I hope you could bring the matter to the Federal Cabinet for quick funding.

Thank you and have a pleasant week.

Dear Sir,

The above complaint refers.

According to record available in the Council, there will be a second road connecting Taman Tunku, Taman Jelita and the surrounding new residence next to Holiday Park, being part of the housing development undertaken by one private sector, please.

For your necessary information, please.

Sekian, harap maklum dan terima kasih.
Pegawai Perhubungan Awam, MBM.

Just to share with you, my readers on the status of our request for a second-link road linking Taman Tunku, Taman Jelita, Holiday Park, Luak Residences with the Miri-Bintulu Highway and Airport Road.

My reply to Talikhidmat:

We hope MIDCOM can look into this proposal seriously. Although we have received a call from JKR Miri, it doesn’t mean this issue is closed.

JKR Miri is aware of this traffic congestion issue and should send their proposal to MIDCOM even before the public lodge a complaint. This should be the proactive step and measure taken by government agencies in addressing public matters.

Do the agencies need the public to complaint before acting on it despite them knowing it better on the ground?

Thank you.
