Another Landslide Awaits

There will be another landslide! The clown in the Public Works Department is so damn sure that with the complete ban on 'tip fill', tragedies will not recur. He must be playing God. It's easier said than done. With money it's easier done. If and when a landslide occurs, just blame mother nature.

We are also good at 'short-cuts'. So to cut a long story short, money comes into play. Got money beres. The clown said strict supervision and maintenance must be adhered to. Same old story. When we 'follow law' we are capable of reducing or minimising landslides' Playing God again.

Developers are an impatient lot! They just cannot wait. The longer they wait the more they lose. So to cut the red tape they will give the 'red packet'. The Chinese used to say, 'if small fortune don't go out big fortune won't come in'.

We are not talking about anthills or molehills. We are talking about real hills! Wait! Wait! Come to think of it. Why must we be so critical of that clown? After all people like us, the ordinary rakyat would not be able to buy such properties. Only those filthy rich can afford.
