Hi Aunty Glamor,
Inevitably, your column is one which I have always homed in on, and Wasted years, wasted lives is no exception! Your column on slopes is timely too, as just 2 days' ago, I was agitated to read again the controversy on the Gasing Hill where apartments have been built ON TOP of the hill, on the KL side, where approval have been obtained haha! When Queried why build on such dangerous slopes by the Councillors, the answer was, "Approval given in 2008 lah" so can't be helped! You mean they have forgotten about Highland towers already? Or there is something so irresistible that approval HAS to be given?
As regards to the suggestion that maintenance funds be made
available for old slopes, as in HK, better not. In Malaysia, these funds
if made available, will be used to buy NEW MPVs, employ new drivers,
design new uniforms to visit the sites of weak slopes, and everything
but spending on the slope itself.Inevitably, your column is one which I have always homed in on, and Wasted years, wasted lives is no exception!
