Your MP's Question of the Week #14

Terjemahan di sini.

In blogosphere which I have read here and there, the general perception has been that I have been "getting too personal" with AirAsia.

The complaints seem to range from why I continue to "harp" on the issues that I have raised in this blog and in parliament and why I also can't seem to be able to let go when the people's money have been sinisterly being abused for this private company.

If I am not wrong, most people would have preferred me to "close one eye." I really don't see the wisdom in that because why would I do that when I know fully well that two eyes will allow me to see things in better perspective?

To be honest, I have nothing personal against AirAsia and I wish I didn't have to raise all those issues with regard to the building of the LCCT for a private company using public funds and the money owed to MAB to the tune of RM110 million.

Just when I thought I would relent and not be too hard on AirAsia, this had to crop up.

After you have read what this blogger's take about this same airline is all about then you guys and gals can come back and then tell me whether, all this while, I have a 'good nose' to sniff out the dirty trails where our people's hard-earned money had been willy nilly used to prop up private businesses or not. Go, and read all about it here.

So the question for this week is this:

Should your MP for Wangsa Maju 'close one eye' on dirty maneuvers of the administration of using public's money to 'finance' private companies or he should continue to keep both his eyes wide open to such subtle or blatant abuses of public funds?

Visits to Sungei Mulia and Danau Kota

UPDATE, 16 June 2008: Now, read about the "horrors" that I had discovered during my visits. Go to the lower section of this post.

Here are some pictures taken during my visits this morning and afternoon. A write up of the events will be posted later. Please bear with me.

Launching of the "Free from Aedes Mosquitoes" in Sungei Mulia by Ministry of Health in conjunction with DBKL.




Visit to Danau Kota Flat - hearing out the problems faced by our Muslim brothers in their surau.


Hearing out and talking to the Residents Association's Chief of Danau Kota pertaining to their long list of problems.


ATTENTION: It has come to my awareness that there were many people making their rounds in Danau Kota who had claimed that they were representing me or working on my behalf.

This is not true and I have not appointed nor given any authority to anyone or any organisation to carry out such 'work' on my behalf.

Should I be appointing people to approach the residents for whatever reason or cause, you will hear of it from me first in this blog.

I urge the rakyat of Wangsa Maju not to be easily taken in by these people's talk and, under no circumstance, please do not contribute money or funds to whatever program or project they claim to be undertaking.

Thank you.

--------------------------------------------------

Yesterday at the Jamuan Makan Malam in Section 1, I heard that our Muslim brothers had problems with their surau. Dirty water was flowing out from the sewage pipe from upstairs. I was extremely surprised to learn that this problem had been brought to the attention of the previous MCA MP and nothing had been done. Well, this is very normal for me now because I have been facing many problems which were grossly neglected and carried forward from many years ago.

I assured our Muslim brothers that I will contact the developer of Danau Kota Flats to attend to this problem. I will also be questioning DBKL, especially Jabatan Perancang, why on earth did it issue Certificates of Fitness for the Danau Kota Flats without building a surau? I would have thought all facilities should have been completed before Certificates of Fitness are issued. I had also been told by our Muslim brothers that a piece of land had been allocated for the surau but there was no plan to build it at the moment. I do not know why.

In the interim, the broken sewage pipe must be attended to by the developer immediately as it involves a place of worship.

After I had attended to our Muslim brothers’ problem, I didn’t know that I was about to stumble upon a mine field! One Mr Lim, who is a resident association leader approached me with all the problems and I must confess that I was shocked to my bones after hearing what he had told me.

To understand more about the Danau Kota Flats, we must go back to history as the project had been abandoned and taken over by several companies. We must also take into consideration the people behind all the companies that had taken over this project in order to understand it better.

Brief History:

It all began in 1982 when the authority wanted to move out the squatters from Kampung Pasir. So the Danau Kota Flats were born. Peremba was the first developer to develop Danau Kota Flats. The construction of the flats was abandoned a few times and several other developers took over from Peremba to complete the development of the Danau Kota Flats. Several developers were involved before the five blocks of flats were finally completed. A unit of flat cost RM25,000-00.

Trust me, there are a lot to check up on the history of this Danau Kota Flats. There are still many unanswered questions with regards to the Kg Pasir land, the tin mine land and the original piece of land occupied by the army known as Wederbun Camp. Subsequently Wederbun Camp was moved to the present site opposite the JPJ. Now the development of this piece of huge prime land had been undertaken by a special developer. Perhaps someone, somewhere would be able to provide me with more information on the history of this piece of “land”, which Wederbun Camp was situated, off Jalan Genting Kelang.

For the moment, I will not go any further until I have verified the stories that I have heard so far.

Problems:

I had been informed that many squatters from Kg Pasir and residents in the vicinity had not been allotted units at the Danau Kota Flats. I was also informed that there are 1,900 units of flats for the 5 blocks of Danau Kota Flats.

A vital question to the developer: have they allocated the low cost flats in Danau Kota Flats to ALL the registered squatters of Kg Pasir and the residents in the vicinity?

The conditions of the Danau Kota Flats were appalling. I was told that when it rained residents had to use umbrellas in the lift! At Block C, the lifts break down on an average of 3 to 4 times a day. The lift problems had been in existence since year 2002 until now.

Collection of rubbish was badly attended to by the Service Management company.

Anti-Lightning Cables were stolen and the management had not installed new anti-lightning cables. Whenever there is lightning, electrical appliances like TV, radio and etc. will be destroyed.

Inadequate parking spaces for the residents. I just wonder how on earth did Jabatan Perancang approve such a big project with such limited number of parking spaces.

There are too many foreigners/immigrants in Danau Kota Flats. They are mainly from Bangladesh, Indonesia, China, (Negroes), Myanmar, Vietnamese and Thailand. I am sure that many of these foreigners are without proper permits. Strictly speaking they are far too many illegal immigrants in Danau Kota Flats. I will inform the respective authority and immigration department about this.

The Service Management company:

The Service Management company has been changed by the developer without consulting the flat owners. The Service Management company also had been collecting RM45 per flat every month and another RM4 per month go into a sinking fund account. To-date the flat owners have no access to the accounts of the funds collected (general maintenance and sinking fund accounts). This is not right. The flat owners must demand for an independent auditor to audit the maintenance and sinking fund accounts.

The flat owners should write to the Commissioner of Building in Dewan Bandaraya demanding for the formation of a Joint Management Committee (JMC), where the flat owners themselves will be elected to form this JMC to run its own affairs.

I shall be contacting the Service Management company and the authorities to sort out the above matters. I will be having a meeting with the leaders of the Residents Association in Danau Kota this coming Wednesday, 18 June 2008.

With the above background, now I can understand why the known two tricksters had been trying their utter best to mislead the Danau Kota Flats owners to not meet up with me and at the same time run me down to the ground that I do not care. This is typical of BN style of politics which is politics of deceit. They hope to win with lies and misdeeds.

Thank you very much to the Danau Kota residents for alerting me of the BN dirty tricks.

Addendum: With regard to the problem of Service Management companies not performing up to mark and mismanaging 'maintenance and sinking fund' accounts of privately owned flats, apartments, condominiums, etc., Danau Kota Flats are certainly not alone in this issue. I have heard of numerous other similar cases that are happening, not only in KL, but also throughout the country. The authorities must be made aware of this problem and the guilty parties brought to book to protect the rakyat's hard-earned savings and money.

Your MP's Question of the Week #13

Terjemahan di sini.

The 41% jump of 78 sen to RM2.70 per litre of petrol on 05 June announced by the Badawi administration is harsh to the extreme.

More so when Malaysia is a net exporter of petroleum. (Please study chart below to compare our petrol price with other oil producing countries.)

Courtesy of malaysiakini

The prices of everything will be affected and the rakyat will suffer when their salaries have generally not increased since the last financial crisis in 1997.

The prices of essential items like rice, fish, eggs, chicken, flour, sugar, cooking oil and condensed milk, etc. have already shot up drastically. With the same amount of money in hand, the rakyat can only buy less. This means families will have less to eat when it comes to food. The damaging effects of the high petrol price on the cost of housing and transportation are also two other looming worries which will crush heavily on the rakyat in the days to follow.

The Badawi administration, it seems, is insensitive and is prepared to let the rakyat suffer by increasing the price of petrol exorbitantly. The rakyat want to speak up and let the sleeping prime minister wake up to their problems. But the police and the lame duck prime minister himself have gone to the mainstream media and told the public not to protest. The question for this week then, is ...

As a citizen of this country, do you think it is just and fair for the police and the prime minister of Malaysia to prevent the people from collectively voicing their hardships to their government in public so that measures can be taken to alleviate their problems?

12 June 2008

"No more petrol price increases this year"

That's what the Prime Minister said earlier today as reported here,

"There will be no further increase to the price of fuel in the country this year despite the possibility of the global price of oil reaching US200 (RM660) per barrel."

Can we take the PM's word for it though he has been known and proven true to "flip-flop" on what he has said or promised? I leave it to you all to judge the truth of the PM's statement.

Good night and sleep well, Malaysia.

"Tiada kenaikan lagi harga minyak tahun ini"

Ini adalah apa yang diumumkan oleh Perdana Menteri hari ini sepertimana dilaporkan di thestar online,

"Tiada kenaikkan lagi harga minyak di negara ini untuk tahun ini walaupun ada kemungkinan harga minyak sedunia akan mencapai taraf US$200 setong"

Bolehkah kita percaya kata-katanya dengan kerenah terkenalnya dalam kerap menukar kata-kata dan janji-janjinya? Saya bagi anda semua menilai sendiri kebenaran katanya kali ini.

Selamat malam dan tidur nyenyak, Malaysia.

「今年油价不会再涨」

这是今天较早前首相所发表的言论,报道在此。

「虽然很有可能国际原油价格每桶将上涨至两百美元(六百六十令吉),我国的油价将不会再上涨。」


总所周知,首相对他自己的承诺老师反反复复,这次是否我们能够相信他的话呢?我让你们自己去判断首相这次的言论是否是真的。

晚安大马,祝您一觉到天明。

Visit to Taman Melati





On Sunday 8 June in the morning I visited the Taman Melati market and touched base with the rakyat. The constituents seemed upbeat despite the recent 41% increase in petrol price. The effect will be felt sooner or later as the petrol price increase will have a knock-on effect on the cost of daily essentials and utilities.

Supporters and I also later visited the home of the late Allayarham Nadxaman who passed on recently at the age of 41 years old. Allayarham was one of the PKR leaders in Taman Melati. He left behind wife and 10 children, with the youngest being 3 years old. A contribution was made to Allayarham's family.

My deepest condolence to the family. Al-Fatihah.

Melawati Taman Melati

Pada pagi ahad 8 Jun, saya melawat Pasar Taman Melati and bersua dengan rakyat sana. Mereka nampaknya bersemangat meskipun dengan kenaikkan 41% dalam harga minyak. Kesan kenaikkan ini akan dirasa dalam perubahan harga barang-barang serta perkhidmatan keperluan harian.

Para penyokong bersama saya telah melawat rumah Allayarham Nadxaman yang meninggal dunia baru-baru ini pada umur 41 tahun. Beliau merupakan salah satu pemimpin PKR di Taman Melati. Beliau meninggalkan isterinya dan 10 orang anak, yang paling muda adalah unur 3 tahun. Derma telah diberi kapada keluarganya.

Ucapan takziah. Al-Fatihah.

視察 TAMAN MELATI

在六月八日﹐星期天早晨時分﹐我探訪了位於TAMAN MELATI 的菜市場順便跟人民聯絡感情。民眾看起來還是平常﹐即使最近汽油價格上昇了41巴仙。效應其實遲早還是會衝擊我們的﹐因為生活必需品和水電費是和油價息息相關的。

我和支持者們較後也探訪了在41歲時去世﹐ ALLAHYARHAM NADXAMAN 的家, 逝者也是公正黨位於TAMAN MELATI的領袖之一。他遺下了一位妻子和十名孩子。一份慰問金已經移交給其家屬。

我對他的家人們致上最誠懇的慰問。 AL-FATIHAH.

Police report lodged against Shell petrol station for alleged adulterated petrol



During my visit to Taman Melati on Sunday yesterday (8 June 2008), a petty trader by the name of En Anuar Bin Halili of Jalan Air Keroh, Setapak, sought my help to highlight a police report which he had lodged against a Shell petrol station in Wangsa Maju.

The report was made after his motor vehicle had developed engine problems after filling up with petrol at the said petrol station. His report was lodged under Wangsa Maju Report No: 6089/2008.

In the said police report, En Anuar had alleged that the last time he had filled up his motor vehicle with petrol was on 5 June 2008 at approximately 7.15 p.m. at a Shell petrol station in Wangsa Maju. Soon after that his motor vehicle developed engine problems with no power and 'shaking' all the time. He brought his motor vehicle to a mechanic for checking and the mechanic diagnosed that the petrol in his car had been 'mixed with kerosene.'

This is a serious matter and I urge the Ministry of Consumers Affairs and Shell Malaysia to thoroughly investigate this allegation.

Your MP's Question of the Week #12

The Badawi administration had promised that the subsidy money saved (RM9.9 billion) from the last petrol price increase will go to improve public transportation.

As far as I can see, the sorry state of affairs of the public transportation had not improved one bit. Where had the billions of Ringgit gone to and for what purpose?

On 4 June at the stroke of 12 midnight, the price of petrol was increased again by 41% by the Badawi administration - a jump of 78 sen, this time, to RM2.70 per liter. It'll be a further net subsidy saving amounting to more billions and billions of Ringgit (RM13.7 billion a year estimated).

So the question for this week is: With the huge surplus received from the over-night increase in petrol price, where do you think the Badawi government should concentrate on its spending?

- Terjemahan oleh Lee Wee Tak - Ucapan ribuan terima kasih dari Wee Choo Keong -
Soalan Mingguan MP anda #12

Pentadbiran Badawi telah berjanji bahawa wang yang dijimatkan (RM9.9 billion) menerusi pengurangan subsidi selaras dengan kenaikan harga minyak akan disalurkan kepada peningkatan sistem hubungan awam.

Pada permerhatian saya, keadaan sistem hubungan awam kita akan menyedihkan dan belum pernah menampakkan sebarang peningkatan. Ke manakah berbilion-bilion ringgit telah hilang dan untuk tujuan apa?

Pada tanggal 4 Jun tepat pukul 12 tengah malam, harga minyak dinaikkan lagi sebanyak 41% oleh pentadbiran Badawi - lonjatan 78 sen kepada RM2.70 selitre. Penjimatan wang subsidi akan berjumlah berbilion-bilion ringgit (RM13.7 billion setahun).

Oleh itu, soalan minggu ini adalah: Dengan wang berlebihan dan diterima daripada kenaikan harga minyak mendadak, ke manakah pentadbiran Badawi patut menyalurkan wang tersebut?

阿強每週一問 #12

巴达威政权在上一次的油价调整时承诺说所省下的津贴(99亿令吉)将会用来改善公共交通设施。

到目前为止,我所见到的却是令人遗憾的情况,公共交通事务一点也没有改善。这几十亿令吉去了那里?花在什么地方?

在6月4日凌晨12点整,阿都拉政权再次将油价调整至41%——上涨了78仙,变成每公升2.70令吉。这使得节省了数以亿计的津贴开销(每年预估为137亿令吉)

因此这个星期的问题是:这笔一夜间获得的庞大盈余,巴达威政府到底应该集中使用在什么地方呢?

Your MP's Question of the Week #11

Maybank is Malaysia's largest domestic bank. It is also a government linked company with the government having close to 60% control of the banking group's assets.

Recently Maybank has disclosed that it intends to buy over Temasek Holdings' (a Singapore government linked company) shares in Bank Internasional Indonesia (BII) for a premium of 4.6 times above its book value for a total sum of RM8.6 billion.

One of the reasons given for Maybank's proposed purchase of Temasek Holdings shares in BII has been to give Maybank a foothold in the financial sector in Indonesia.

The Government or Bank Negara in particular has to weigh heavily on the following controversial issues with regard to the purchase and they are:

1. Maybank is buying the shares at a premium of 4.6 times above the book value;

2. This transaction is benefiting Temasek Holdings, a Singapore government linked company (and Singapore has just recently been given sovereignty over Pulau Batu Puteh by the International Court of Justice in The Hague);

3. Temasek Holdings will be making a capital gain of RM2.6 billion;

4. This transaction would likely be benefiting a consultant company with millions of RM in consultancy fees.

The question for this week then is:

Should Bank Negara stop Maybank from its proposed acquisition of Temasek Holdings' shares in Bank Internasional Indonesia at a premium of 4.6 times above the book value to protect the minority shareholders, rakyat and country's interest?

Soalan Mingguan MP anda #11

Maybank adalah bank terbesar Malaysia. Ia juga mempunyai hubungan dengan kerajaan di mana pihak kerajaan memegang kawalan 60% ke atasnya semua harta kumpulan Maybank.

Baru-baru ini Maybank mengumumkan hasratnya membeli saham Bank Internasional Indonesia (BII) yang dimiliki oleh Temasik Holding’s (sebuah syarikat yang mempunyai hubungan erat dengan kerajaan Singapura) dengan jumlah RM8.6 bilion yang merupakan 4.6 kali lebih daripada nilai bukunya.

(nota penterjemah: maksudnya, jika jumlah harta bersih BII adalah RM100, maka Maybank membayar RM460 untuk membelinya)

Salah satu sebab cadangan Maybank membeli saham BII yang dimiliki oleh Temasek Holdings adalah untuk Maybank mula bertapak di bidangan kewangan di Indonesia.

Kerajaan atau Bank Negara khususnya mesti berfikir masak-masak mengenai perkara-perkara yang berhubung kait dengan pembelian ini iaitu:

1. Maybank bercadang membeli saham pada harga tinggi, 4.6 kali melebihi nilai buku;

2. Pembelian ini akan menguntungkan Temasek Holdings, sebuah syarikat berhubung erat dengan kerajaan Singapura (dan Singapura baru-baru ini diberi hakmilik Pulau Batu Puteh oleh Mahkamah Keadilan Antarabangsa di Hague, Belanda);

3. Temasek Holdings akan meraih keuntungan modal sebanyak RM2.6 billion

(nota penterjemah: berapa banyak hospital, sekolah, bantuan kepada orang miskin dan sakit?)

4. Urusniaga akan menguntungkan sebuah syarikat penasihat dengan berjuta-juta ringgit.

(note penterjemah: Undilah kerajaan Barisan Nasional).

Oleh itu, persoalan minggu ini adalah:

Patutkah Bank Negara melarang Maybank daripada meneruskan cadangan pembelian saham BII yang dimiliki oleh Temasik Holding’s pada kadar 4.6 kali melebihi nilai buku supaya kepentingan pemilik saham kecil, rakyat dan negara dapat dipertahankan?

阿強每週一問 #11

马来亚银行是马来西亚国内最大的银行,它同时也是一家政府相关公司,政府拥有这家金融集团接近60%的股权。

最近马来亚银行宣布以比账面价值高出4.6倍的价格,收购淡马锡集团(Temasek Holdings)(一家新加坡政府相关公司)于印尼国际银行(Bank Internasional Indonesia,BII)的股权,交易总值是86亿令吉。

马来亚银行对淡马锡集团在印尼国际银行股票的收购行动所做的其中一项解释是让马来亚银行能够在印尼金融领域立足。

政府或尤其是国家银行必须对这项富争议性的收购行动做出深刻的衡量。在这项收购行动中,他们:
1.马来亚银行以超过账面价值4.6倍的价格付出佣金;

2.这宗交易的利益方是淡马锡集团,一家新加坡政府相关公司。(而新加坡最近在海牙国际法庭成功获得白礁岛的主权);

3.淡马锡集团将会获得26亿令吉的资本增益(capital gain);

4.这宗交易将惠及顾问公司,并令这家公司赚取几百万令吉的顾问费。

这个星期的问题是:

是否国家银行应该停止马来亚银行以比账面价值高出4.6倍的价格,收购淡马锡集团于印尼国际银行的股权,以便小股东、人民和国家的利益受到保护呢?

Parliamentary Questions for second sitting of parliament

Time to submit parliamentary questions, again!

Not ever wanting to be one of those 'caught' by blogger I am a Malaysian for "gross dereliction of duty" for not submitting parliamentary questions ;-) I wish to invite Wangsa Maju-ians to submit questions to me that you wish me to bring up in parliament for the second sitting in 2008, which will be from 23 June to 15 July.

This is what I would call participative democracy on your part and, through me, it is almost as if you are the member of parliament performing your duty for the rakyat, Agong and country.

I will not guarantee that all questions submitted to me will be taken up but at least, if they cover relevant and meaningful issues, perhaps they can be catalysts for new questions to emerge.

I am only allowed to submit 10 oral and 5 written questions. The deadline for submission is 2 June which effectively gives me only 4 days to collate and shortlist them.

So fire away and leave your questions in the comment section. It would be preferable if you do not submit your question or questions as an 'Anonymous' person but provide a nick at the end of the comment like "Malaysian patriot," "Concerned rakyat" or something like that. It helps to put a 'face' to the question submitted.

Thank you.

Wee Choo Keong
MP for Wangsa Maju

Soalan-soalan untuk sidang parlimen kedua

Masa untuk ungkitkan soalan parlimen lagi!


Saya tidak mahu menjadi salah seorang yang 'ditangkap' oleh blogger I am a Malaysian kerana lalai dalam tugas saya tidak mengutarakan soalan-soalan yang anda semua mahu saya kemukakan di sidang parlimen kedua yang akan berlangsung daripada 23 Jun hingga 15 Julai.

Ini adalah apa yang saya sebut sebagai demokrasi penglibatan di mana anda semua, menerusi saya, seolah melaksanakan tugas sebagai wakil rakyat untuk rakyat, DYMM Dipertuan Agong dan negara.

Saya tidak boleh jamin semua soalan dihantar kepada saya akan dipilih tetapi jika soalan-soalan anda melibatkan isu-isu yang relevan dan bermakna, ia boleh mencetuskan soalan-soalan baru.

Saya hanya dibenarkan kemukakan 10 soalan lisan dan 5 soalan bertulis. Tarikh muktamad adalah 2 Jun dan ini bermakna saya hanya ada 4 hari untuk mengumpul dan memilih soalan.

(nota penterjemah: ada had 40 perkataan, bukan?)

Oleh itu, tinggalkan soalan-soalan anda di ruangan ulasan (komen). Lebih baik anda tidak meninggalkan soalan-soalan anda sebagai 'Anonymous' (orang tidak dinamakan) tetapi bagilah satu nama timangan di akhir soalan seperti "Patriot negara," "Rakyat yang ambil berat" dan sebagainya kerana ini memberi suatu identity pada soalan anda.

Terima kasih.

又到了提交国会问答环节的问题提交的时候了!

为了不想被一些部落客「抓」到,免得像【I am a Malaysian】部落客所叙述的那样,说我「亵职」,没有提呈国会问答环节的问题;-)我希望邀请旺沙玛朱居民把您的疑问提交给我,让我把您的问题提 交到2008年第二次国会问答环节中去,这次的问答环节将会由6月23日开始直到7月15日。

我称这个为您的「民主参与」,通过我,您可以把自己当成是一名国会议员,为人民、最高元首和国家履行您的义务。

我将无法保证你们提呈的所有问题都能够带到国会中去,可是在最低程度,如果这些问题涵盖了相关和富有意义的内容的话,也学他们能够把这些都加以归类,以便结合起来成为新的问题。

我只被允许提交10项口头问题和5项书面问题。问题提呈的截止日期是6月2日,也就是说我必须充分的利用仅有的四天时间把问题进行对照和简化。

因此,请开炮吧!把你们的问题留下意见区下,如果能够的话请不要使用匿名提交您的问题,请在您的意见中使用昵称,比方说「大马爱国者」、「关心大马」或是类似的昵称,如果能够在提交问题的时候提供一张「大头照」那再好不过。

感激您!

Mahadi's and Azlan's infamous 3 little words ...

NOTICE: Read Maybank's Briefing on purchase of Bank Internasional Indonesia from Temasek Holdings here.

(Terjemahan ada berikut di bawah.)

(中文版,请点击这里. - 翻译员:cc liew, Wee Choo Keong 致于万二分谢意. )

Yesterday, in a Malay Mail online news item headlined "Demolition chief was 'carrying out orders'" here's what the paper reported in its opening paragraphs:
"THE City Hall officer responsible for depriving some 200 families of their livelihood by hastily tearing down eight illegally erected food courts in Taman Desa Setapak on May 21 said: "I was merely carrying out my duty."
"Azlan Abdullah, who was in charge of the demolition of the eight buildings housing some 130 hawker stalls, said he did not receive any instructions to halt the demolition work."

Notice the similarity
Azlan Abdullah has in common with his superior, City Hall urban planning director, Mahadi Che Ngah, when they are asked to explain their unlawful, high-handed and inhumane demolition actions - despite the stay of action for 14 days given by their bosses?

It's the way they give their answers as excuses with these infamous three little words: I did not ...


Mahadi Che Ngah: "I did not read my sms (for 5 days)."


Azlan Abdullah: "I did not receive any instructions to halt the demolition work."

I am quite sure Mahadi Che Ngah would also have said "I did not read the email ..." that was sent to him on Wednesday, May 21, 2008 by the Pegawai Khas kepada Datuk Bandar, En Shaari, and that's why further demolition work was carried out first thing in the morning the next day on May 22 by Azlan Abdullah.

Mahadi Che Ngah did not read the sms that was sent to him by his boss, Ketua Pengarah DBKL, Datuk Hj Salleh on May 17.

Mahadi Che Ngah also did not read his email that was sent to him by
the Pegawai Khas kepada Datuk Bandar, En Shaari on May 22. (You can read it here.)

Mahadi Che Ngah, because of the above, did not give instructions to Azlan Abdullah not to proceed with the unlawful and high-handed demolition work for 2 consecutive days.

Do Mahadi Che Ngah read anything?

Mahadi Che Ngah, just because he says "I did not ...", can seem to be getting away with causing havoc and grief to the rakyat of Kuala Lumpur as well as turning DBKL to become the enemy of the rakyat so easily?

Mahadi Che Ngah has no respect for his bosses - therefore he is the de facto Datuk Bandar of Kuala Lumpur!


Mahadi Che Ngah surely must be answerable to someone, some body, some party or some company.

The question is WHO or WHAT - and what are their motives and what do they hope to gain - for him and Azlan Abdullah to be so blatantly insubordinative and daring to go about creating havoc and misery for the rakyat of Kuala Lumpur?

- Terjemahan oleh Lee Wee Tak
- Ucapan ribuan terima kasih dari Wee Choo Keong -

Kata-kata Mahadi dan Azlan yang “busuk terkenal”

Semalam dalam akhbar Malay Mail saluran internet bertajuk “Ketua kerja perobohan bertindak ikut arahan” bermula dengan perenggan berikut:

“Pegawai DBKL yang bertanggungjawab menjejaskan punca hidup 200 keluarga di Taman Desa Setapak pada tanggal 21 Mei dengan merobohkan gerai makanan haram berkata, ’Saya hanya menjalankan tugas saya.

“Azlan Abdullah, yang mengetuai kerja merobohkan 8 bangunan yang memuatkan sebanyak 130 gerai, berkata dia tidak menerima arahan memberhentikan kerjanya.”


Dapatkah anda perasan persamaan Azlan Abdullah dan ketuanya, Pengarah Perancangan DBKL, Mahadi Che Ngah, apabila mereka diminta memberi penjelasan terhadap tindakan yang salah di sisi undang-undang, angkuh dan tidak berperikemanusiaan, meskipun arahan tangguh kerja selama 14 hari telah diberi?

Iaitu cara mereka memberi jawapan/alasan dengan perkataan: “Saya tidak…”


Mahadi Che Ngah: "Saya tidak baca gua punya sms (selama 5 hari)."


Azlan Abdullah: "Saya tidak menerima apa-apa arahan memberhentikan kerja merobohkan gerai."

Saya juga amat pasti Mahadi Che Ngah akan berkata “Saya tidak baca e-mel …”yang telah dihantar kepadanya pada Rabu, 21 Mei 2008 oleh Pegawai Khas kepada Datuk Bandar, En Shaari, dan sebab itulah kerja-kerja perohan diteruskan pada 22 Mei oleh si Azlan Abdullah itu.

Mahadi Che Ngah tidak baca sms yang dihantar kepadanya oleh ketuanya, Ketua Pengarah DBKL, Datuk Hj Salleh pada Mei 17.

Mahadi Che Ngah juga tidak baca e-mel yang dihantar kepadanya oleh Pegawai Khas kepada Datuk Bandar, En Shaari pada Mei 22. (Anda boleh baca mengenainya disini.)

Mahadi Che Ngah, kerana kelalaiannya tersebut, tidak memberi arahan kepada Azlan Abdullah supaya jangan meneruskan kerja-kerja perobohan yang salah di sisi undang-undang dan angkuh selama 2 hari.

Adakah Mahadi Che Ngah baca apa-apa?

Mahadi Che Ngah, hanya oleh kerana dia kata Saya tidak …” boleh dengan senangnya melepaskan dirinya daripada dosa menjejaskan hidup menyakitkan hati rakyat Kuala Lumpur serta menjadikan DBKL musuh kepada rakyat KL?

Mahadi Che Ngah tidak menghormati ketuanya dan oleh itu dialah Datuk Bandar Kuala Lumpur yang sebenarnya!

Mahadi Che Ngah patut dan mesti bertanggungjawab serta tertakluk kepada seseorang, sebuah lembaga, sebuah perbandanan atau sekumpulan.

Persoalannya ialah SIAPA atau APA – dan apakah tujuan mereka dan apakah yang mereke kehendaki – untuk dia dan Azlan Abdullah dengan secara terang-terang mengikari arahan dan berani mendatangkan kekacauan dan kesengsaraan rakyat Kuala Lumpur?

The faces behind the insubordination of orders & high-handed demolitions

Muka-muka dalam hikayat menafikan arahan dan perobohan angkuh

(中文版,请点击这里. - 翻译员:cc liew, Wee Choo Keong 致于万二分谢意 )



This is the Ketua Jabatan Perancang of DBKL(City Hall urban planning director) and immediate superior of En Azlan, En Mahadi Che Ngah, who did not read his SMS for 5 days.

Inilah Ketua Jabatan Perancang DBKL dan ketua En Azlan, En Mahadi Che Ngah, yang tidak membaca SMSnya untuk 5 hari.

I have also received information that he was seen actively campaigning for Datuk Zulhasnan Rafique, the current minister of FT during the 12th GE. Isn't there a general order in the civil service that prohibits any government servant from being involved in politics, let alone be actively campaigning for a politician?

Does this also explain why the politically-motivated, high-handed and inhumane demolition actions were taken against the 130 food stalls at Taman Desa Setapak on 21 & 22 May 2008 by this En Azlan bin Abdullah below?
- Terjemahan oleh Lee Wee Tak - Ucapan ribuan terima kasih dari Wee Choo Keong -
Saya juga menerima maklumat bahawa dia berkempen secara aktif untuk Datuk Zulhasnan Rafique, yang merupakan Menteri Wilayah Persekutuan, semasa pilihanraya umum ke-12. Bukankah adanya arahan umum di perkhidmatan awam yang melarang kaki tangan kerajaan daripada terlibat dalam politik, lebih-lebih lagi berkempen secara aktif?

Adakah ini boleh menerangkan angkara merobohkan 130 gerai makanan di Taman Desa Setapak pada 21 & 22 Mei 2008 oleh si En Azlan bin Abdullah ini yang berasakan minda politik, amat angkuh dan tidak berperikemanusiaan?



There are many questions to be asked as to why these two DBKL officers are actively insubordinating their boss' orders and going about their unlawful and inhumane demolition works even though a stay of action for 14 days had been given. This is clearly a mission of theirs to go about destabilising Pakatan Rakyat as was confirmed by an arrogant statement made by En Azlan on the first day of unlawful demolition.

Who are their bosses and who are they really working for?

I call upon the authorities to investigate En Mahadi and En Azlan for their gross insubordination and unlawful, high-handed demolition works recently and take serious actions against them for purposely turning DBKL into an enemy of the rakyat of Kuala Lumpur.

Kini banyak soalan yang perlu dijawap iaitu mengapakah 2 pegawai DBKL secara cergas menafikan arahan ketua mereka dan menjalankan kerja merobohkan gerai-gerai secara haram dan tidak berperikemanusiaan walaupun suatu arahan penangguhan untuk 14 hari sudahpun diberi. Ini amatlah jelas bahawa mereka mempunyai tugas khas mengacau ketenteraman dan kestabilan kerajaan Pakatan Rakyat di mana angkara terkeji ini jelas daripada kata-kata yang maha angkuh yang keluar daripada mulut Encik Azlan pada hari robohan haram dibuat.

Siapakah ketua mereka yang sebenar dan kepada siapakah yang mereka berkhidmat?


Saya menyeru pihak berkuasa supaya menyiasat En Mahadi and En Azlan ke atas kesalahan besar mereka menafikan arahan dan kerja robohan yang salah di sisi undang-undang, dan mengambil tindakan mereka yang sengaja menjadikan pejabat DBKL kepada musuh rakyat Kuala Lumpur.
