PJ residents, Attention needed!

YB Tony Pua suggested a Petition to FREEZE all development around PJ. Below is a part of his blog post which I leave it for your reading.

I'm thinking to coming up with a people petition to the state government to implement a freeze on all new (and yet to be approved) high-rise development (anything above 4 stories?) in Petaling Jaya until such a time when:

1. The updated and revised Rancang Tempatan Petaling Jaya (RTPJ) is approved by MBPJ and the state government after all necessary due process such as consultation with the people of Petaling Jaya, and
   
   
   
2. An efficient public transportation system of high quality and frequency is set up to drastically reduce traffic within the city. While by and large, the state government has only bit roles in setting up public transportation services, it can insist that development project plans will only be approved if public transportation issues have been resolved (e.g., new high density projects can only be approved if there will be buses/trains plying the route etc.)
   

By "freezing" the approval of new development orders, as well as placing strict restrictions on density on those which have unfortunately been approved (but detailed plans yet to be submitted), it will also incentivise the developers to lobby and negotiate with public transport companies such as RapidKL to increase route coverage.

If you stay in Petaling Jaya and are willing to campaign for this movement and promote the petition (e.g., going house-to-house to get signatures for support), and even better, lead the project, please do not hesitate to contact me @ tonypua (at) yahoo (dot) com. I'll then be more than happy to play the role to lobby the state government with your petition.

I had sent him my email. I hope those who lived around PJ would do the same. We need to stop the development and improve on our traffic congestion. We must also be considerate to those residents living around the most busy highway, LDP. Not to forget the countless accidents and sharp corner of the highway. Be the change!

7-Eleven & Anti ISA vigil @ PJ

Remember, Tomorrow Anti ISA vigil will start at usual time, 8PM. But I read that the BERSIH group will join us to commemorate their 1 year Anniversary. They will start at 9pm. Expecting a lot of people to storm the place!

Ipoh will have their first vigil. Tomorrow as well, 8pm at Tamam D.R. Seenivasagam.

We will surely remember the Happy day when RPK was released. Thus came 7-Eleven for us to remember it clearly that the court still stand on good warrior side. May he has enough rest and start gunning soon. I will surely remember 7-Eleven!

See you tomorrow at PJ Vigil!

Aktivis Suaram ditahan bawah ISA-ref Malaysiakini

Another person is being detained under ISA. Read here. BM version.

It seems like our authority is busy playing cat and mouse. They detained those who stand for the right. I am wondering how many people can be place in Kamunting. Not enough with the big fish that they are now aiming for the smaller fish to bring a message over? Come on. Malaysian will not take that anymore. Detention without trial is injustice to the person who had or had not commit any wrong doing. Its like you smack a child without giving an explanations. Fair? Let Malaysian be the judge. If the most moron (don't include those mighty weighter supporters) person also say its fair, its better for some one to buy me a one way flight to Australia or any country that are willing to accept me.

The ISA detainees list goes on. 67 at the moment?

Come Sunday. Anti-Isa Vigil at Padang Timur, near to Taman Jaya. Next to A&W. In front of Amcorp Mall. Time 8pm until every one left with satisfaction knowing they had make a stand! See you there!
