Violet Yong: September 2012

Friday, September 21, 2012. SUPP Youth Chief Should Stop All Drama Acting. SUPP Youth chief, Tan Kai had recently said through the media that he would see to the flood mitigation after talking to the people in Bintawa Fishing Village and understanding their problems. I find this amusing as Bintawa residents have been plagued by flash flood at monsoon seasons annually. This year, I followed up the issue with the MBKS by writing a letter which as usual, there was no respond. I would like the MBKS to do the...

Violet Yong: May 2011
http://violetyong.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 21, 2011. Recreation Parks at Kali Garden Unmaintained and Unkempt. Kuching is lack of facilities especially for senior citizens and even for the younger generation who has to pay to go to a gym. A park in housing areas is considered a God-send for a lot of people who would exercise, relax or for the senior citizen, a chat with neighbours while doing some light exercise in the evening. The park in Kali Garden along Jalan Resak is very utilized but unfortunately, unmaintained and unkempt.

Violet Yong: Unfair Taxi Coupon Payment System
http://violetyong.blogspot.com/2012/03/unfair-taxi-coupon-payment-system.html
Friday, March 23, 2012. Unfair Taxi Coupon Payment System. Three taxi drivers came to see me after they were being treated unfairly by the Airport taxi coupon service counter management. For every passenger they ferried, a taxi driver earned RM26 and that has to be shared with the Airport service counter which took a cut of RM3 after they give the coupon back to the counter in exchange for cash. Boon Sin Choo was very upset when he came to see me. I hope the authority would do something about it instead ...

Violet Yong: Sarawak BN Took Away Land without Paying Due Compensation!
http://violetyong.blogspot.com/2012/05/sarawak-bn-took-away-land-without.html
Thursday, May 3, 2012. Sarawak BN Took Away Land without Paying Due Compensation! At times I think that the state government is better at doing the disappearing magic act than the famous David Copperfield. It is especially so when it comes to either NCR or land bought by owners which can disappear right under their nose overnight. After coming to me for help, Borhan said he was extremely disappointed and frustrated that all these years despite paying their quit rent, the plot of land could just disappear...

Monday, September 12, 2011. I can buy PM a cup of tea if he is so desperate of having one. The visit of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak’s to the Palace of Justice, Tun Zaki Azmi who has since retired has indeed jeopardized the independence of the already ‘problematic’ judicial system. I beg to differ. The two should sit down and compare notes and then tell the Malaysian who is telling the truth, Najib? Why should a PM go and see how allocation of fund was spent. If that were the case, then the ...

Wednesday, December 28, 2011. Destruction of Ballot Papers of N. 10 Pending. On a hot Wednesday morning last week, I stood in the scorching sun watching council workers burned the ballot papers of my constituency N10 Pending at their workshop in Semangat road, Pending. I was called to witness the destroying of my ballot papers two weeks before. In every state election, ballot boxes would be sealed, stored in a safe place by the authority before destroying in six months time. Monday, December 19, 2011.

Violet Yong: Scrapping smelter deal: Taib’s political game
http://violetyong.blogspot.com/2012/03/scrapping-smelter-deal-taibs-political.html
Friday, March 30, 2012. Scrapping smelter deal: Taib’s political game. March 29, 2012. The Rio Tinto 'pullout' may be linked to the refusal of the federal government to sell Bakun Dam to the chief minister, claims the DAP. KUCHING: Global mining giant Rio Tinto PLC’s “pullout” from Sarawak may be temporary in view of the 13th general election, the uproar over Lynas in Pahang and the fact that Chief Minister Taib Mahmud has not been able to buy the Bakun Dam from the federal government. 8220;So, as far as...

Wednesday, June 8, 2011. Boy Who Cried Wolf. With election over, I believe that those elected or not should put aside their political differences and work together for the benefit of the people who voted for them. After all, we vowed to be with the people and it was the voters who made their decision to choose their representatives. Even Penang Chief Minister, YAB Lim Guan Eng offered him a job in the Penang if the State Government did not want to hire him. The door of Penang is wide open and I think...
