Newly appointed Majlis Bandaraya Petaling Jaya (MBPJ) mayor Datuk Termizi Ahmad Puteh not only has assumed a totally new job for him, but also has an all new question for him to answer – whether the MBPJ has already completed on the total number of billboards in Petaling Jaya under the administration on MBPJ?
This is the question raised when the Mayor was quoted by China Press KL/Sel Section through a tele-conversation that the City Hall is in still in the process of investigating the total number of outdoor advertising billboards in the whole Petaling Jaya under its jurisdiction.
This was inconsistent with some documents sourced from an anonymous party that the city hall has already issued warning letter to one of the many advertising companies. It will be mind-boggling to notice that the city hall “is still in the process of investigation” in July 2006 when the city hall had as early as July 2005 issued warning letter to outdoor advertising companies, alerting them to demolish illegal outdoor advertising billboards or the city hall will take actions against them.
How would the city hall be able to warn companies on illegal outdoor advertising billboard in July 2005 when the investigation is yet to be completed in July 2006?
Termizi should think twice in finalizing his reply to His Majesty the Sultan of Selangor, Sultan Sharafudding Abdul Aziz Shah. Otherwise, he will commit a serious crime of not speaking the truth to His Majesty.
It's sad to note too that not much MPs or ADUNs in Petaling Jaya have come out openly to support the movement which seeks for greater transparency from MBPJ. Moreover, the movement is initiated by the residents who had granted them handsome victory during the last General Election. Their silence will inevitably lead PJ residents to believe that they are on MPBJ's side.
People representatives in PJ should be the leading force to advocate for good governance and transparency in local government. Being MPs and ADUNs for a constituency which is the heartland of MBPJ’s administration, YB Datin Paduka Chew Mei Fun, Bukit Lanjan ADUN, YB Ms. Yong Dai Ying, Taman Medan ADUN, YB Abdul Wahab Ibrahim, Bukit Gasing ADUN, YB Datuk Lim Thuan Seng (State Exco) cannot afford to be seemed missing from action. (Kampung Tunku ADUN and Damansara Utama Adun, YB Datuk Dr. Wong Sai Hou and YB Datuk Lim Choon Kin are MBPJ Councillors, PJ Selatan MP YB Datuk Lim Siang Chai has voiced out his grouses on MBPJ yesterday)
In relation to MBPJ billboard issue, we expect not only Termizi to explain, but also ADUNs and MPs in PJ to explain their deafening inactions. A letter will be issued to them to highlight the issue and to urge them to take up the issue.
