medan damansara landslide...can you kira!

got an sms yesterday from randir, (or tirrr)."Friends, finally it happened.Hillside development in medan damansara.slope collapsed damaginghouses with residents fleeing 4 safety.It happened at 4 am.Read about n pixes on the controversial project damansara 21."
This morning I called him to tell him that the story is already in the media. Randir has been the leading advcate in the camoaign to stop the ridiculous develoment in the mainly terace housing enclave. Obviouly another example of unseen hands working wth the powerful and poliically connected.He already warned DBKL of the danger of hillslope development and yesterday it happened.
Now is the time for the ACA to really probe into this affair and not just going after a dedicated and clean guy who did not get his dentist bill. Actually, they should also investigate the dentist who cleaned up bukit chelaka, (err.. cherakah ).

Randir said that a team of lawyers have come forward to volunteer legal aid for this case.What was more shocking was when he told me that this project has yet to get any approval from the authorities. Can you kira!!

(P.s. Randhir was the guy who always used th phrase "can you kira" which was oft repeated by my late dad (bless his soul), a keen golfer who used to have a few rounds with randhir whenever he comes to KL. )

Mr Randhir (once voted as the neatest turban in UM) must surely be the most eligible candidate to replace Karam Singh Walia.. Tirr, please come to Bukit Antarabangsa once in a while and see the hills... rock'on bro.
