Dear Editor and readers,
EVER wonder why all the
street pedestrian pavement in KK never last long? They easily start cracking
and sinking then DBKK will call another contractor after one year or
thereabouts, to re-do and reconstruct these pavements?
Surely every one can see
this in KK but normally the ordinary citizens would not understand the reasons.
When these pavement are constructed, as usual the boss or supervisor from the
crony contractors awarded the projects are hardly around, and these works are carried
out by the pilaks even on saturdays and sundays. Photos taken on Sunday.
Photo shows the ground base
filling with sand or earth and compacted using the feet of the pilaks. Their
shoe marks are clearly seen. These crony contractor cannot even use a small
plate compactor to prepare the ground surface.
The pilaks then spread the
reinforcing bars touching the ground directly and then pour concrete on top of
it. For the non technical citizens the steel bars should be buried in concrete
and NOT touching the soil which will make it rusty in a short period.
Once the bars are rotten,
then the pavement concrete wont have any much strength and start sinking
especially when some motorist climb on the payement once in a while.
49 years of Malaysia and yet
this is still the standard of workmanship coming from the BN style of
government because the engineers from DBKK probably will certify the works from
the coffeeshop and never even seen how these works are done.
It is up to the citizens of
KK to decide whether they will allow this rot to continue?
Best Regards,
JUSTICE SEEKERS
