The council will soon take a tough stance against substandard projects by bad contractors in Padawan area.
Substandard works on road projects is a major concern to the council because the taxpayers’ money is involved, hence we will fight bad contractors to do quality works.
We will step up project monitoring roles on the various road projects. We’ll go to the field and undertake serious inspection of the roads under construction to make sure the contractors will give us nothing but good roads that can last for long.
My sentiments came on the heels of the spate of complaints reported from the Rakyat of substandard jobs by lousy contractors. The citizens are seeing quality standards from JKR ongoing projects and yet the contractors doing up the projects on roads under Padawan Municipal Council are producing substandard results.
Bringing my MPP councillors, staffs and Engineers, we are serious about improving the administration in tendering of contractors.
I would like to see the current batch of contractors stepping up in their job and show us quality work. No longer shall different contractors do different job scope on one road. We want contractors who can deliver, contractors to cover the road project from tar of road to side road shoulders to painting of road lines and more.
Reason being, for example; Kota Sentosa road was already completed since 3 months ago, yet the road lines are still not painted till today. How can the rakyat be satisfied with such job standards.
Now the contractors will be graded according to their job deliverance quality.
A = More projects
B = Regular projects
C = Warning Given
D = Suspended
The council will be administering more efficiently and continue to be more stringent on the tender contractors in order to produce quality project and meet the aspirations of our rakyat.
