Metered Parking Introduced But Where Is The Enforcement?


THIS is Taman Seri Rampai and what you are looking at is a motorist obediently using the parking coupon dispenser to purchase parking coupons to be placed on the dashboard of his car.

Yes, ticketed parking system has been introduced in Taman Seri Rampai and the entire Wangsa Maju constituency. It will not be long when the same is introduced in Gombak and further down to Setapak.

Why these parking meters were not yet installed in Gombak - which is also partly under the Wangsa Maju constituency - is left best answered by Mayor Fuad Ismail who has assumed office recently.
However, why some shops in Wangsa Maju still act as though they own the parking lots is best answered here. You and me. And I think it is the lack of enforcement by officers of City Hall is a contributory factor.

Perhaps the MP or even the good Mayor can look into this for good measure?

Look at the blatant 'booking' of this parking lot as shown below. Who put the plastic cannister there is as good a guess from you as it is from me.



Hallo friend, your farder own the parking lot ah?

Why put up metered parking systems when you don't want to enforce its use? Why allow some people to deprive others from parking and City Hall from collecting parking revenue? Can someone please answer this?

I felt disgusted by it, for me it looks like DBKL is trying some other method to suck the people's money.

Parking lots should be made free, I don't see why they need to place such money-sucker thingy for the sake of parking in places used to be free?

Screw DBKL!

CLF, nothing is free in this world. Let's be reasonable here. From cradle to grave you pay a price; there is tax everywhere, only the premium differs. In this case, if parking is charged, then City Hall should make sure there is no blatant abuse. As can be seen, workshop owners and laminators as well as accessory shop owners book parking lots. So much so that one wonders if they were exempted from paying for the occupation of such lots. Be that as it may, City Hall should also be reasonable in their rates.

Well this is a fair reason there Kiren. Perhaps I've spoken without went through my brain earlier.

But then, it's just a neighbourhood township, why should they suddenly came up with something like this without asking the residents?

I heard of some people said that this is an act of the city council as a "punishment" since WM is no longer under BN.

I think this must be a crude joke, well hope DBKL did this out of some reasonable reasons.

I dont think this is a right assumption although many people would want to think so. City Hall should perhaps provide free parking on Saturdays and Sundays since that is the time residents do their shopping and marketing and since fewer offices were open and parking not that congested.

DENDA RM40,000 PALSUKAN TANDATANGAN [METROTV]

Jurutera didenda RM40,000 palsu tandatangan berhubung pembinaan bangle

KUALA LUMPUR: Seorang jurutera sebuah syarikat perunding pembinaan didenda RM40,000 oleh Mahkamah Sesyen di sini hari ini selepas mengaku bersalah atas pertuduhan memalsukan tandatangan pada sebuah dokumen berhubung cadangan pembinaan sebuah banglo.

Hakim Azura Alwi menjatuhkan hukuman itu ke atas Toh Hwee Sheng, 46, dan memerintahkannya dipenjara enam bulan jika gagal membayar denda itu.

Toh didakwa dengan curangnya menggunakan suatu dokumen sebagai tulen iaitu sebuah buku ‘Structure Design Calculation’ bertarikh 2 Ogos 2014 berhubung kiraan dan pelan struktur bagi cadangan membina sebuah banglo dua setengah tingkat di atas Lot PT 1, No 1, Jalan 5, Selayang Baru, Mukim Batu, Gombak, Selangor daripada Lieng Consult kepada Datuk Yip Kum Fook iaitu pemilik tanah yang mempunyai sebab untuk mempercayai dokumen itu adalah palsu.

Tertuduh didakwa melakukan kesalahan itu antara 2 hingga 12 Ogos 2014, di No 2A & B, Jalan 53, Desa Jaya Kepong di sini, mengikut Seksyen 471 Kanun Keseksaan yang boleh dihukum di bawah Seksyen 465 kanun sama yang memperuntukkan hukuman penjara maksimum dua tahun atau denda atau kedua-duanya.

Pegawai Pendakwa Suruhanjaya Pencegahan Rasuah Malaysia (SPRM) Mohd Aliff Shaharuzaman memohon hukuman setimpal bagi memberi pengajaran kepada tertuduh kerana amalan pemalsuan dan meniru tandatangan pemilik syarikat adalah kesalahan serius dan menjadi barah dalam masyarakat jika tidak ditangani.

Tertuduh yang tidak diwakili peguam merayu hukuman denda dikenakan ke atasnya dengan jumlah yang minimum kerana dia mempunyai tanggungan termasuk ibu yang berumur 76 tahun.

“Ini adalah kesalahan pertama dan saya tiada rekod jenayah. Saya amat kesal dan insaf atas kesalahan ini dan berjanji tidak akan mengulanginya lagi, jadi saya mohon hukuman denda minimum tanpa hukuman penjara,” katanya.

Mengikut fakta kes, pada 2013, Yip Kum Fook iaitu bekas Ahli Majlis Perbandaran Selayang mengarahkan syarikat tertuduh bekerja iaitu Lieng Consult menyediakan Borang A, Kiraan Struktur dan Pelan Struktur bagi cadangan membina sebuah banglo dua setengah tingkat di atas lot tersebut, namun penyediaan dokumen itu tanpa pengetahuan Lieng Wei Ming selaku pemilik syarikat.

Lieng memaklumkan semua dokumen itu tidak dikeluarkan oleh syarikatnya dan mengesahkan tandatangan pada dokumen itu juga bukan miliknya.

Selain itu, tertuduh juga menerima wang RM10,000 daripada Yip atas pembayaran kerja yang dilakukan iaitu menyediakan semua dokumen itu dan hasil semakan Bahagian Forensik SPRM mengesahkan tandatangan pada dokumen ‘Structure Design Calculation’ adalah berbeza dengan spesimen tandatangan diambil daripada Lieng. -Bernama

Kerajaan Malaysia akan memeriksa Yip Kum Fook (peguam dan presiden Samnak Sambodhi atau persatuan Buddha, Taman Desa Jaya, kepong) kerana peguam ini menipu orang di mana-mana......Yip Kum Fook & Associates, Kuala Lumpur...

This YIP KUM FOOK does not embarrass the Buddha or Buddhist monks and he can do everything badly.

Also this YIP KUM FOOK does not respect the King of Malaysia (Agong) because he can make the title of Datuk ruined destroyed and he always does evil things everywhere without shame.

People very hate YIP KUM FOOK (President of SAMNAK SAMBODHI Buddhist Temple) because many people hate his character and his son (YIP JIUN HANN) also act as a father.

We hope the Malaysian government, Buddhist associations, the community and others boycott YIP KUM FOOK as soon as possible
