LUYANG POLYCLINIC LACKING CAR PARK

PARKING.... The parking situation in front of the Luyang Polyclinic.

THE GENERAL publics who went to the Luyang Polyclinic were furious because they couldn’t find a single 'suitable place' to park their cars. The area is filled with cars every where during peak visiting hours to the polyclinic, where car owners were forced to 'dump' their cars on some 'unsuitable' parking areas like pavements, roads, corners and even in the housing area opposite the Polyclinic.

They went to the KK MP office to file the complaint and hope the KK MP Hiew King Cheu can assist in the matter. Hiew said the matter was brought up by him many years ago and he had the reply from the Health Minister that they will attend to the matter and construct 33 car parking lots in the Taman Bestari ground. This was approved by the DBKK and the work would commence in 2010 the latest.

Very sadly, until today we still see no sign of the 33 car parks, most likely this must have been forgotten by the MOH and the DBKK.

The problem is getting more serious now due to the ever increasing number of cars. The patients find it really difficult to find a parking space but have to risk receiving summons from the enforcement and police.

MP Hiew said the car parking place in Luyang Polyclinic must be enlarged to accommodate extra cars. It is unlikely that the authorities can’t even build 33 car parking lots. If they can’t do this, what else they can do?

This no doubt had reflected the inefficiency and ineffectiveness of the BN government. We are not asking them to build a multi-storey car park but merely 33 parking lots on the ground.

MP Hiew urges the government to immediately start work on the 33 car parking lots and do not wait until the election is over. By then the BN wouldn’t be required to carry out this task anymore.
