SHAME.....
The broken down roof of the new bus stop.
A TOTAL of thirty new bus
stops were built in Kota Kinabalu City by DBKK, and that is supposedly good for
the bus commuters, but unfortunately the newly build bus stops does not last
long. These new bus stop shed are in a broken down stage. The contractor
obviously has done a bad job.
More than twenty bus stops
are spotted with broken poly carbonate roof coverings. Andrew Lee, the Special Assistant to the KK
MP Hiew King Cheu went to check on the bus stops after receiving public
complaints from the bus stop users in the city.
At this point of time the
public will have to put up with the inconvenience from the hot sun and getting
wet during the rainy season. With this
poor materials used as the roofing material, does it mean that the DBKK has to
get another contract out to benefit its contractors?
This is definitely a waste
and inappropriate use public fund. We want something that is cheap, lasting and
looks pleasant, and no those material that is sub-standard and lasted only a
short while. The polycarbonate definitely cannot withstand the sun heat and the
strong wind.
Sabah DAP urges DBKK to take
action to find out why this type of roofing material was specified and who
approved this materials which is being use as a roof cover for the newly build
bus stops in KK.
According to the supplier of
polycarbonate roofing sheet, the good quality type should last at least 10
years or more. In this case, there must be something no right either with the
contractor or the engineer, and the public deserves an explanation. This is a
very embarrassing scene to our tourists and to our Sabahans.
The Mayor of Kota Kinabalu
must 'Turun Padang' and sees for himself. Sabah DAP urges the DBKK must carry
out repair works immediately for the sake of the public convenience.
