MBSJ has been criticised by city folk who expect top-class services, including facility and amenities maintenance.
Consequently, they fear other problems could arise such as hygiene and safety issues.Lafite Apartments resident Theresa Ratnam Thong said Subang Jaya residents used to be proud to live in the township, but the level of care by the local authority had been declining over the years.
The former MBSJ councillor and former Lafite Apartments management corporation chairman has explored various platforms to highlight persistent issues. Theresa suggested that MBSJ revisit its previous practice of assigning a council officer to each councillor to oversee the affairs in their respective zones.“I know MBSJ employees are a dedicated group of people. There are lots of potential and we need to harness this to ensure the delivery system of council services meet the community’s expectations,” she said.
“The problems are worse at the Puteri 5 commercial area. Some drains are falling apart and there are more streets with potholes,” he added. “MBSJ should make it a condition in an operator’s business licence renewal application to include details of their waste management and pest control contractors as well as cleanliness around premises.
Lee said the problem was so bad that a few business operators rented a temporary roll-on, roll-off bin to collect illegally dumped rubbish and paid a private contractor to clean a clogged sewerage system in the Jalan Puteri 2/2A vicinity. Tan said irresponsible individuals used to dump all sorts of rubbish there, including food, packaging, old furniture and renovation debris. Sometimes the rubbish would leave a stench or attract rodents. The situation improved when the Roro bin was placed.
Paramjeet Singh says the infrastructure and lack of maintenance problems are worse in the Bandar Puteri Puchong 5 commercial area, including streets riddled with potholes, uncollected rubbish and clogged drains. A clogged drain outside a shop in Bandar Puteri Puchong 2 commercial area can be a breeding ground for mosquitoes.
