malaysiakini has become a success because it reports many cases of corruption scandals - the latest sea sand being used in KK's hospital more than 25 years ago as in this malaysiakini article MP a blast from the past, warns QEH consultant. For this case no need for sabre-rattling and the authorities can decide that they want a second opinion on the remedial works if at all possible.That would include where was the sea sand concrete placed and why it was allowed to happen.
Sometimes we make major changes and even after spending billions of ringgit, there is no major improvement but instead make life more inconvenient for consumers. Just look at the proposal for the thousands of bus commuters who travel to Singapore.
If you look at the present system in JB it is not bad but can still be improved. Now you walk about 400meters to the JB Checkpoint.
But it seems that the proposed system is going to enforce all travellers to start from the Larkin terminal that is about 12km from the town center. If this system is put in place it will mean that the poor commuters will spend at least RM2 extra each way plus all the additional time travelling.
You can read the details here.
That overhead pedestrian link-way is about 1km from the town center and is a steep slope. Walking up is going to be a major challenge.
I suggest that all buses going to Singapore be allowed to only pick up passengers at limited stops and also allow disembarkation at fixed stops.
Surely after spending so much monies on a major CIQ we should have better plans for our taxpayers?
What do you think?
