BANDARAN BERJAYA SEWAGE PROBLEM

OVERFLOW.....Edward and Andrew inspect the site of the overflow sewage water at Bandaran Berjaya.

SEWAGE problems in Kota Kinabalu seems to be an endless problem faced by the public. The members of the public just can't seem to understand why is DBKK still not up to date in solving such problems.

This shows that DBKK is inefficient and is in need of more professionals, desperately to manage and solve problems faced by members of the public. Many complaints by the public were not recorded by the council and were not attended too due to certain irresponsible ignorant individuals.

Andrew Lee, Special Assistant to KK MP, received a complaint from a coffee shop operator here, from Bandaran Berjaya. The sewage system has not been service for many years now and it has been overflowing with unbearable smelly sewage water. The "Kedai Kopi Kampar" owner had made numerous complaints to DBKK complaints "Hotline".

However no action was taken by the relevant department. It has been two months now and the shop owner is fed up and furious over this matter. We were made to understand that the "Smelly Sewage Water" is over flowing to the main road and the smell is unbearable.

Sabah DAP urges DBKK to be more sensitive towards the public and to ensure cleanliness in Kota Kinabalu city. DBKK has a duty towards the public who are tax payers. Sabah DAP hopes that public funds will not be wasted and it should be used to benefit the public.
