Another Death Avenue for Our Kids

Our kids are now exposed to all kind of risk due to poor planning of safety for events and training organized by the government.

Year after year we have kids died during the national training. Today we have kids died because of 1Malaysia event.

If you do not know how to plan for safety don't organised anything.

There is no need to show your condolence in Parliment and expect everthing will be fine for the rest of us. We just got enough of your acting.

To all the parents who lost their kids .. May God bless all of them.

When a small pipe burst - LDP way

Well done LDP for making a lot of money by letting thousand of vehicles crawled along your highway for more than two hours.

You know you could inform the highway users to divert before the massive traffic jam built up but making money is your top priority.

Such a lousy PR from a public listed company only shows how greedy LDP is. Shame on you. No need for Selamat Hari Raya for your staff this year.

I hope LDP knows how to spend this sin money !

ISA - Why close the road to the city? Real stupid action.

I am sick of those who are in power. Real sick. I don't think they have brain to run the country.

Closing the road to the city and preventing people to do what is necessary for their important activities is a real stupid move. They did this once when I need to send my kids to college about 1 year ago.

Today they close the road to the city again and my kid missed the bus that is supposed to take her to a college in Kedah. I am very sure their brainless action had also affected other parents and kids.

To those in power , just don't blame all those who take action to protest against the government. Blame it also on your stupid strategy.

Dua Kali Dua Empat - The old song is alive again in Malaysian School

I am glad the government had made decision to use Malay language for Math and science subjects. Now I can sing with my kids the 'sefer' song "Dua kali Dua Empat .....".

I could not understand who made the recommendation to use English earlier.

I did all my math and science at primary level in Malay language and never had problem during the university time and in fact most of the time I did better that those English students from UK. One of my friend who completed his study in Seoul University, Korea also did very well in his study.


Both of us had done many iconic projects initiated by Dr Mahathir and he should be proud that the language our engineers learned during their chilhood days were Malay not English.

What's next for Malaysian Builders?

Design a stadium is not an easy task. After the collapse of the stadium in Kuala Trengganu my mind quickly had a flash back on my experience designing Bukit Jalil Stadium in accelerated time trying to meet the Commonwealth Games many years ago.

As usual Malaysian are good at doing things in a rush manner. The country does not have enough engineers who are passionate with the design. Most of the engineers prefer to work with construction companies due to higher pay or project managment companies due to less responsibilites or technically less demanding.

...more to come...

Solving a bridge problem

Two years ago a contractor excavated a river close to existing bridge piers (without temporary protection) resulting in serious scouring to the bridge piles. As a result the bridge had to be closed.

While cleaning my hard disk recently, I happened to locate what I had drawn on a white board during a mid night discussion before asking the minister to close the bridge.

Nothing happened to the contractor. No penalties . Blame it on river discharge increased over time because some local council did not ask the housing developer close by to build retention pond.

Three days ago I happened to drove by a road at the perimeter of Jaya Supermarket 2 hours before the collapse. There is no terrorist to be blame here except the Contractor. There are not many jobs in town so there were so many excavators idling waiting for short term rental. So they tought they can just bring as many excavator as they can and finish the job before the authorities caught them.

Some of Malaysia Contractor's mentality never change.

Why can't we have the list of all the problematic contractors with the directors name online so we can help the local council to check these culprits. Our local council and their staff are too busy issuing summon to car owners who park their car all over the place along the road side.

Will the contractor get serious punishment this time. ? I don't think so. Maybe the same contractor will be working next to your house next months doing something you cannot imagine.

Watch out.!

Third Bridge to Singapore ?

What a ridiculous idea ?. Why Malaysia need a bridge conecting to Singapore on the eastern Johor just to develop eastern Johor.

Malaysia leader should crack their head to find ways to stimulate the economy of eastern Johor internally and not by depending on Singaporean.

After spending a big sum of money on stupidly engineered crook bridge the government is still thinking Singapore are good neighbour.
