it has been 100 days

the honeymoon is over. That was said by tan sri khalid while addressing the selangor civil servants last monday. There were also prayers held in conjuction with the celebration to mark the 100 days pakatan rakyat in power and governing selangor at state and also district level. The state celebration was held at the stadium melawati, shah alam last friday

i was not able to be there on both occasion as i had some other function to attend to. Serving under the current goverment does not make much different with the previous one. But one thing for sure, they are doing their level best to deliver promises made prior to the last general election. Some has been implemented while some is on their way. The only different that i noticed is the head of dept will be given a free hand in performing their duties but of course they have to perform. The new govt seems to be more approachable

at the moment selangor is looking at ways to enrich its coffer and the main agenda now seem to be the 'pasir'. Permits will be issue again in order for the market to have the supply and it will be done in a better ways where the operators will have to pay the govt around rm3 - rm4 per ton beside another 25% of the total value of the 'pasir' before the operators are being allow to start their operations. It is hoped that all the red tape would be cut and the operators will have less head ache in doing businesses. In a simple words it is going to be legalise.

it was a good idea and i believe it is going to be a good revenue for selangor. Some new measures are going to be announce soon such as the use of a special gadget to weight the sands and it will be send straight to the system and the monitoring will be done at three (3) differents level. Lets wait for June 26th for the announcement. The state govt is targeting an additional income of between rm150m - rm200m a year when it is implemented and i was made to understand that the permits will be issued come this July

having the chance to talk and having tea with tan sri recently during his visit to my centre (the first agency visited by him after becoming menteri besar), i could see that he is a down to earth man. Having served in a few congelemerates companies, his vast experiences will be a bonus to selangor. One could not bulldozz thru as far as figure is concern as he will has the answer before you could press your calculator. Selangorian will be enjoying free water supply up to rm11.40 per each individual meter this month.

Hoped there will be more to come for the benefit of all and for the opposition in selangor, they have to work really hard if they want to wrest selangor back in the next general election as the rakyat will be observing your performances.

may selangor stands tall among all the roses in malaysia
