THE BROKEN concrete slab of a walkway over a wide drain next to the Tanjong Aru Beach Hotel has become the focus of tourist complaint lately. The complaint reached the Sabah DAP complaint bureau recently from some tourists who are staying in the hotel.
The DAP complaint bureau Chief Allem Chieng happens to be there when the tourist complained directly to him.
The broken slab is dangerous to pedestrian and it is even more so at night because there is no lighting in the area. The single piece of narrow plank placed temporary for the people to cross would not hold the weight of a heavy person. The rusty steel bars look very scary. If some one fell into the drain, he might be hurt severely by the steel bars. There was a case where a boy fell off the narrow plank, but luckily he wasn’t hurt.
Allem urges the authorities to come immediately to repair the broken slab before some one is seriously hurt. This repair would not need million ringgits to make good, but we want to see immediate action.
There are many other things that need the attention and action from the authorities. The Tanjong Aru Beach is a famous tourist area, but now even the locals do not want to visit. The Sabah Tourism Minister Datuk Masidi Manjun should do something and not keeping quiet, and pretend that he didn’t know.
