PUTATAN – Flood situation in
Putatan has been troubling businesses in the area due to its poor drainage
system. Sabah Progressive Party (SAPP) N.17 Tanjung Aru, upon hearing
complaints from the shop operators especially the area surrounding the front
row of shops near the shopping mall found the area was flooded.
Its CLC chairman Datuk
Richard Yong We Kong said the cause of flooding was due to the construction of
Putatan town’s drainage system was not thorough.
According to him, these
problems have been highlighted four months ago on the rubbish filled clogged
drains where water cannot flow smoothly.
Unfortunately Putatan
District Council does not take appropriate action to improve and solve the
problem. This bad situation has caused financial wastage, causing inconvenience
and difficulties to the local residents and business traders alike.
“Every time it rains
flooding will hit in many areas in Putatan. SAPP will ensure an effective
planning will be explored to overcome the problems faced by improving
irrigation and drainage system for the convenience of people Putatan area,”
Richard stressed.
