Break in at USJ 3/3

Dear All,

My friend's house was broken into last night at around 10.20 pm in
the USJ 3/3 area. 4 Indian guys dressed totally in black and wearing masks
and gloves scaled her wall and prised up her inner grille gate. Shocking!

She and her husband were upstairs while her 12 yr old son and maid were
downstairs. Her son heard the sound of the robbers breaking in and ran
upstairs but the robbers were so fast. One held a parang to my friend's neck
while another held a sword to her husband's neck. Fortunately, after taking
their jewellery, money, laptop and handphones, they left. No one was
injured.

Please be on the alert.

Regards,

Loretta

OPS PAYUNG ii Launched

SUBANG JAYA police will now be noticeably present even in the night with the debut of Ops Payung II, with our men in blue spotting new umbrellas equipped with beacon lights and night lamps manning their static stations.

The introduction of the new equipment will allow the police to operate into the night at hot spots in Subang Jaya, creating omnipresence in the community, according to Subang Jaya OCPD ACP Zainal Rashid Abu Bakar.

“The umbrellas with a blue beacon light and night lamp will operate until midnight when called upon. It will complement our existing 20 umbrellas used during the day.”

“Seven sets which include a table and a chair each will be mobilised immediately. It will also be used for manning road blocks,” Zainal said at the launch of the new umbrellas and also the meet-the-community session in front of Restoran Man Selera in SS15 recently.

He said the umbrella units will be used as one of the platforms for the public to interact with the police wherever they may be stationed.

The first phase of Ops Payung, the brainchild of Selangor Police Chief DCP Dato Tun Hisan Tun Hamzah, was launched in November last year. The umbrellas from the first phase were provided by Sime Darby Property Berhad.

“The crime rate in Subang Jaya has dropped tremendously thanks to the cooperation and assistance from the public.”

“This success would have been impossible without the community’s help,” Zainal said, adding that even the restaurant owner came forward to sponsor the refreshments for the launch when he was told the launch would be in front of his shop.

He paid tribute to members of the Voluntary Patrol Unit of Subang Jaya, comprising mostly senior citizens who diligently patrolled Subang Jaya and USJ during the day, creating a presence which helped deter attempts to perpetrate crime.

Local authorities to take over Alam Flora’s cleaning work

THE cleaning work that has been carried out by Alam Flora Sdn Bhd will now be taken over by the nine local authorities in Selan-gor. Mentri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim said the state government had decided that Alam Flora would only be in charge of garbage collection, while local authorities would do the cleaning work. The local authorities will now clean drains, fields and roads, said Khalid after the Selangor state monthly meeting yesterday. He said this was important because local authorities had been receiving many complaints on cleanliness. Khalid said the state government was planning to spend about RM200mil for cleaning work. “The local authorities will have their own workers and if need be they will give out contracts for cleaning projects,” he said. Khalid said the decision was not due to Alam Flora’s failure to deliver, but he felt that they could not handle everything by themselves. “If they only focus on garbage collection then it will be easier for us to know what their job specialisation is,” he said. Khalid said Alam Flora’s role as coordinators by using contractors must be reduced and they had to be directly involved with the tasks given. “About 10 years ago, all these tasks were done by the local authorities. Now we are reverting to the old way. Alam Flora’s initial role was only to deal with garbage collection and disposal,” he said.

MPSJ to promote cycling for health

AS PART of an initiative to promote a healthy lifestyle, the Subang Jaya Municipal Council (MPSJ) will be organising the Cycle for a Healthy Life MPSJ 2011 programme.

“Cycling is becoming popular these days, but most people do not have a chance to cycle properly as traffic on roads can be dangerous,” said MPSJ acting president Abdullah Marjunid at a press conference recently.

“This has made most people limit their cycling to housing areas or parks. “By having this programme, we’re giving an opportunity to participants to experience riding on the streets, with proper safety measures implemented,” he said. Ready to ride: Abdullah (in red, on mountain bike) and cycling team members all geared up for their first ride.

He added that apart from promoting a healthy lifestyle, it would also help foster unity and raise awareness on pollution caused by motorised vehicles. The activity will be held on every last Sunday of the month, incorporating a 10 to 15km route, and is open to participants aged 12 and above. The first event will take off from the MPSJ Sports Complex in USJ 5 at 7.30am.

“For the first three months from April to June, we will be having the activities at Subang Jaya constituency, followed by Kinrara, Seri Kembangan and Serdang,” said Abdullah. Interested participants need only show up with their bikes at the venue as no registration is required. Currently only roadbikes and mountain bikes are allowed.

Participants must also wear safety helmets and proper attire. “Staff will be stationed along the cycling route to direct traffic and lend assistance to cyclists. “If participants get tired halfway, there will also be a patrol vehicle to fetch the riders and their bikes to the starting point,” said Abdullah.

Lending their support to the programme are former national cyclists M.Kumaresan and Musairi Musa, who will be joining the event along with members from cycling clubs around Selangor, including the MPSJ Cycling Club, Ciclista Cycling and Bukit Jelutong Cycling Club.

Subang Jaya - A Township of Rubbish!

Indiscriminate dumping of rubbish is becoming as rampant as illegal buntings and banners popping up overnight. SUBANG Jaya is fast becoming a township littered with rubbish no thanks to irresponsible house owners who throw their rubbish anywhere they deem fit and made worse by inefficient rubbish collection by the authorities. Almost every main road or neighbourhood roads are littered with rubbish from the home – old sofa sets; old cupboards, car tires; tree branches; kitchen rubbish; and a lot more bulky items which residents are not willing to pay the cost for disposal. In most, if not all the cases, the rubbish is not thrown outside their own compound but onto neighbouring roads. Some blame it on ignorance of the fact that they have to pay for the disposal of such items while others argue that it is the Subang Jaya Municipal Council’s duty to dispose of it for them. The cost to remove bulky waste in 2010 was a whopping RM302,000 according to MPSJ.

Selangor state exco for tourism, consumer affairs and environment Elizabeth Wong who was asked to comment on this said, “It's not rocket science. It confounds me why Malaysians continue to indulge in indiscriminate and illegal dumping of waste when services are available. Every time someone throws out rubbish at public areas and roadsides, it's additional costs to the residents and ratepayers of Subang Jaya.”

ADUN Subang Jaya Hannah Yeoh said MPSJ was in a transitional stage where there may be a change of contractors for rubbish collection. “The collection has not been regular, even though there are two people supervising the rubbish collection, which is MPSJ’s Urban Services director, and a supervisor from Alam Flora.” “I believe that there is a lack of supervision in this case. By right, supervisors should be more proactive and make checks on their workers’ progress on ad-hoc basis, and not waiting for the public to alert them about this,” she said. Hannah said it was MPSJ’s job is to provide these services. Many residents complain that leachate from Alam Flora’s garbage trucks leave a trail on the road, stinking up the whole stretch. She said MPSJ should place someone in areas most likely to face illegal dumping to catch the perpetrators. “I don’t buy into their excuse that they lack manpower to carry out these duties. Also, people who are caught should be slapped with a stiff fine to deter them and others from following suit.” Hannah said there was an urgent need to educate residents and this could easily be done through dissemination of information via leaflets. “Residents should also play their part to take photos of people dumping by the roadside and alert MPSJ immediately,” she added.

MPSJ councilor for JKP Zone 4 Roslan Shahir said he had received complaints about illegal dumping, especially those that involve dumping of construction waste in residential areas in USJ 1. “There was also once that they dumped the construction waste in front of Rumah Amal Cahaya Tengku Ampuan Rahimah, which is dangerous and hazardous for the orphans who live there.” “I find this is irresponsible because MPSJ has to fork out the budget to clear it up. We are planning to build barricades to ensure that lorries will not find it easy to enter the area to dump the waste. I’m also urging residents to snap photos of lorries who passed by to identify the culprits,” he said, adding that the council had put up a billboard along Persiaran Kewajipan offering a RM500 reward for photos taken of the culprits.

MPSJ councilor for Zone 1 Dr KM Loi said there was no reason for indiscriminate dumping as MPSJ provides collection of special waste for a minimum fee of RM250 that will be included the assessment fee. “MPSJ needs to be clearer in laying out their policies when it comes to bulky items although it is not included in the by-laws when it comes to waste management. To circumvent this problem, MPSJ should include it in Alam Flora’s contracts if they want to provide better services to the residents,” he said. To dispose bulky waste, please call Alam Flora hotline to pick up 1800-880-800

Fire at USJ 3/1G

Recently, a fire broke out as a result of a electric water pump at our chairman, Andy Lam's house on USJ 3/1G. Luckily his maid alerted him via his handphone, which prompted him to seek assistance from his neighbours. Our vice-chairman, Darren Ooi was one of those who came and brought along his portable fire extinguisher which was put to use and possible slowed down the fire long enough till the fire bomba arrived about 20mins after they were alerted.

Luckily noone was hurt and the damage was minimal. From this incident, we learn that it is most advisable to be prepared and hence Andy had taken the liberty to source for quotations of certain fire fighting equipment which we feel may be good to have on hand in case of such events. See below:

Note that the pricing for the equipment is based on a purchase of 50 units; hence if you are interested in purchasing them, please contact Andy Lam on his HP 0193337088
