KOTA PADAWAN: Padawan Municipal Council
(MPP) chairman Lo Khere Chiang advised
Kuching Water Board and the Department of Rural Water Supply to ensure that their contractors involved
in laying water pipes to do their jobs properly.
Lo said the laying of pipes and digging the
road and not covering up the road properly are causing a lot damages to the
roads.
“I would like to mention here also, Batu
Kitang has the same issue where huge pipes had
been laid along the Batu Kitang Road from the Treatment Plant and all
these pipelines once they are laid and the contractors are not doing a proper
job,” he said at a press conference
after the MPP Full Council Meeting here yesterday.
“The contractors are not doing a proper job
and I would like to advise the authorities concerned i.e Water Board and
Jabatan Bekalan Air Luar Bandar (JBALB)
to advise their contractors to do their job properly,” he said.
Lo said
Batu Kitang is under JABALB while Semeba is under Kuching Water Board.
“I would like to advise these
authorities because this is a problem that has been recurring not just today but every time the Water Board or JABALB take up a pipeline , they don’t ensure that their contractors do a good job.”
Earlier,
Councillor Wilfred Yap advised
Julian Tan, the Member of
Parliament for Stampin and Abdul Aziz Isa,
the special assistant to YB Chong Chieng Jen, the MP for Bandar Kuching
and Kota Sentosa Assemblyman, to do go and do their homework.
“Recently, there was this very bad
comment made by MP Julian Tan and Abdul
Aziz the special assistant to Chong
Chieng Jen on the road condition at Jalan Semaba.
“Instead of making blunt statement in the press, they should go and do their homework. Those potholes have nothing to do
with the council. Because as far as the council is concerned, all those roads
are properly maintained,” he said.
