Do we really have to send THEM?

Today's newspaper had just confirmed my concern about PutraJaya's road planning. Please read my blog posted on January 17, 2005. You will clearly see what I was griping about.

Today, that gripe is substantiated by The Star Publication regarding the opinion of PutraJaya road planners. It's no wonder why they were not invited to go and plan one of the cities destroyed by a certain big wave.

KUALA LUMPUR: Malaysian town planners will be involved in drafting the master plan for the reconstruction of Aceh, Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak said.
He said he would lead a delegation to Aceh on Monday, along with several planners, who were selected by the Housing and Local Government Ministry.

To a question, Najib said the master plan would not be based on that of Putrajaya.
“Although those who planned Putrajaya will be involved in drafting the master plan in Aceh, the philosophy and architecture have to be based on local needs and tastes,” said Najib, who had been asked by Abdullah to co-ordinate the reconstruction work with Indonesia


Interesting...interesting. So let's just go ahead and read behind the lines.

To a snide remark, Najim* retorted that the master plan (of Bandar Achih*) should deserve better than the crap we have at PutraJaya, (plus, it's going to be an international thing so we have to put more thought and less bribe into it.)
"Although the Scrabble Club who planned PutraJaya will be involved in picking the material for the blueprints of Bandar Acheh*, we will hire REAL city planners to plan a structured and logical blueprint for them to leave peacefully in," said Najim* who had be asked by Abdillah* to co-ordinate the reconstruction work with Indonisia*.

Gimme back my illegal workers!

It’s interesting to see how some Malaysian’s are reacting towards the government’s clamp down on illegal immigrants. Some are commending the effort, and some are just plain angry. Why? They have to do the dirty work of their business, plus, they’re losing precious sleep.

The Star reported on February 2, 2005 http://www.thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2005/2/2/nation/10060805&sec=nation

Restaurant owner K. Puspa, who tried in vain to get work permits for four Indian workers, said she was now left in the lurch as there was no one to cook for her customers.
“I’m upset and angry. Chinese New Year is approaching and that’s when we have a lot of customers. Now I have to reduce the shop’s operating hours by half, learn how to make roti canai and prepare the food myself.
“I’m also barely getting three hours of sleep daily,” said Puspa, who was previously cheated of RM6,000 when she tried to apply for the permits through agents.


I’ve heard the same thing from one of the Malay restaurant operators at my workplace. They had to cut down on working hours as well as do things themselves. And they’re not too happy about it either.

SO…do these particular business owners have the right to be angry at the government for taking/scaring away their illegal workers?

H*ll no! is my humble opinion. First of all, they’re cheating on income tax payments by hiring these illegal workers.

Second of all, they cheating Malaysians a chance to get a job.

Sure, Malaysians in general are particularly fussy about jobs. But that does not give these business owners the right to hire illegal immigrant workers.

I hope that the government will continue to uphold the virtue of the law. I know it's pretty d@mn hard in this country, but we've got to start somewhere.
