Safer Drive

Good work: SAC Nooryah thanking some of the policemen who took part in Ops Sikap XII.

Well I would like to congratulate for the efficiency in reducing the numbers of accident occur during the Chinese New Year festival. I hope that the police will continue to practice for longer period not just a few days. Only through this serious operation the driver will only learn to be respected in the basic traffic laws. The present of ops sikap operation has proven to be effective in ensuring that drivers strictly followed the law while on the road. The ops sikap operation had been showing the positive results by deployment the policemen in the express buses to ensure that the bus drivers obeyed traffic laws. This treatment should be made to other road user as well.
In my opinion, instead of highlighting the number of deaths and accidents, I think that the ops sikap operation should report the poor attitudes among the road user. I think polices who involved in these ops sikap operation should highlight the bad behaviors of the road user. By highlighting this, public can further understand and be educate what drivers with bad attitudes mean. They should highlight daily about the number of drivers caught speeding, overtaking at double lines, overtaking using emergency lanes of the highways, beating the traffic lights and a host of other attitude related offences. Fine the road user who breaks the traffic laws so that they learn to take the responsibility with what they do.

I think the main purpose for the road safety programme is trying to make us more courteous and safe drivers and not just to prevent accidents and deaths on roads. Road user have to educate by not being so reckless while they all driving. Be a good road user to prevent the accident happening. Love yourself, love your family members. Always be aware while you are driving.

Thousands usher in new year

Happy Chinese New Year!!! This year is brand new year. In this year of Boar I do hope that everyone can live peacefully and happily.
Like usual, every first day of CNY, Our MCA will have an open house to invite all Malaysians from all walks of life to celebrate together the CNY. This is unique for having this culture for Malaysians to strengthen each other relationship during the festival. Ten of thousand of Malaysians even the visitors (foreigners) can also come and join together the celebration. There do have lion dance performance during that day. This has been created the situation even hotter.
But it is sad for me to say that most of the people attend this open house don’t queue up in order to get their foods. People there seemed that afraid they don’t have food to eat. So they wanted to grad their foods. For me this action is rather rudeness and spoils our image in front of the visitors. What will visitors think about for these rude actions of grading the foods? No only this, actually most of the Malaysians don’t really like to queue in order to get their turn. They like to cut the queue. Most Malaysians seemed that they are impatience. They can’t wait. They just wanted to get thing done soon. Like even driving the car, once traffic jam they will break the rule to use the emergency line.
I think Malaysians have to take this issue seriously and improved from the mistake that we did. In order to retain our good reputation we definitely have to change this bad habits.

Goverment wants suggestions on improving delivery system

Currently Malaysia government is asking Malaysian to give some suggestions on improving delivery system from all walks of life. This is good that government knows their problems and wants to improve the delivery system. It is good that the Malaysia government knows their problem and takes it seriously. Even it is a bit late to release the problems has already been facing long time ago but I think late is better then the government don’t release the failure of the delivery system.
Personally I feel that when I call to the government helpline to seek for help .It is so frustrated to hear that “please hold on your line, I will pass your problems or questions to other department in charge. It is not just a moment to wait until the other department to answer your phone. It takes long time to passing the phone to other department in charge. I think they are not efficiency in their work. They suppose already had training with their work before they start working. How come they still don’t know how to handle customer’s request. The other main service that needs to be improved is serving the customer with speed. It is like our culture that serving customers slowly by the government servant. Customers used to wait long time only can be served by them. I wonder and always asked myself that ‘why they couldn’t serve customers even faster as possible’. Time is precious. Customers sometime have to wait for half day only reaches their turn to be served.
But one thing I feel proud of the government servant services is about their civil service. They are good in providing the civil services for the customers. They used to smile happily and greed the customers before they providing their services for the customers.
In the conjunction of the visit Malaysia 2007 I do hope that the government takes this issue seriously and improved it immediately. This is good to have good reputation by giving the foreigner the best of the best services as we can.

Safety for visitors in the shopping complex

When you think about a city of Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur, what comes to mind? Lots of shopping complexes right here. So Kuala Lumpur is well known as Shopping havens like Time square, Chinatown, Central market and the many luxurious shopping complexes. As this year is visiting Malaysia 2007, shopping complexes have become the place which must be going by the foreigners.

But what had been happened to our shopping complexes? I feel frightening when I read the news that 30 guns shot by the robbers last Saturday night at the Poh Kong goldsmith shop Subang Parade shopping mall. What happened for the visitors when there were visiting the shopping complex on that time? According to the shop owner there (other shop owner), customers went inside their shop so that they could run away from any injured or being shot by the guns. The robbery did not take other visitor’s life here into consideration at all. So if this continued to be happened again there is no safer to go to any shopping complex even though to catch a movie in the cinema.

This is not only the case happened in the shopping complex, before this we used to come across that snatch thieves always happened at the shopping complex car park. Women always become the target of the robbers or being raped by rapist. Once the visitors feel that their life being threaten If they go to any shopping complexes in Malaysia. They will stop for going to shopping if unnecessary. Hence the business for the shopping complexes will go downhill because the visitors do not want to come
By promoting visit Malaysia 2007 I think we need to improve our security system at shopping complex in order to assure the safety for the visitors. We definitely have to do something to make the visitors feel confidence enough to come to shopping. I strongly suggested that CCTV or screening checks should be fixed on it in every corner of shopping complex. By having this security will immediately come to the place to give the protection to the visitors. Beside this it will increase the number of visitors to come over shopping again. This is something must do in order to gain back the confidence while they come to shopping. We expected 20 millions of visitors for this year in conjunction to the visit Malaysia is no longer a dream anymore by enforcing our security system at shopping mall.
