Anyway, there seems to be some sewerage leaking under the ground. See pics. The situation has been ongoing for the last few years and it is getting more serious now. When it rains, the whole adjoining roads will be overflowed with the dirty septic water.
Of course, when the complaint first went to MPSP, they replied ,"LUAR KUASA MPSP"! And that without checking the actual condition at the location. I think, MPSP saw the word 'sewerage' and automatically flunk the complaint out, probably to the sewerage people? The thing is, how did they know it was out of their jurisdiction if they have not studied together with other related departments or bodies, e.g. IWK, JKR, etc? How do they know whether JKR's or MPSP's contractor have damaged the underlying ground due to the contractor's excavation work? Wouldn't it be part of MPSP's responsibility towards the people too?
The complaint has now been directed to IWK (sewerage body)and waiting their feedback. I have a forewarning that the reply may not be responsive but let's not jump the gun.
One of the last resorts is to highlight the complaint to the local newspaper, which would be very effective, as I have found out a few years ago when the local contractor did a haphazard job and cut corners when building the monsoon drain's railings......
IWK was very efficient this time. Their personnel was at the location to study the problem & gave an immediate feedback.
ReplyDelete"Not sewerage. It's MPSP, we will refer to MPSP".
Referred to MPSP & they replied today that the "aduan di terima".
Now this is surprising. Hope the actual work will be carried out in next few days.
