Nuraina A Samad's 3540 Jalan Sudin: HAPPY FATHER'S DAY
Assalamualaikum Nuraina,
It is not my intention to comment on your blog but I have a special request to make. Last week I read a very inspiring interview of Tan Sri Syed Mokhtar Al Bukhary on your blog and I thought I want as many as possible of my Malay friends, especially those who are wealthy to read, what Syed Mokhtar has said about his reasons and motivations for his wealth accumulation drive. I shall be very grateful if you help me to retieve in a form that I can store as a document file so that I can send to my friends for them to read. Failing which how can I direct them to read this particular blog.
MSAbdullah.

Old Customs Department Quaters near Kelana Jaya town centre
Every time I have to go to the Kelana Jaya town centre to buy some medicine from the chemist or run errand for my wife, I cannot help feeling a sense of guilt for not making an observation so that some one in authority, can look into the possibility of putting to some temporary use the rows of walk up flats which have been vacated some time ago by the occupiers. I believe that with the completion of the spanking new HQ and staff quarters by the Department not too far away from the same town centre, these flats have become redundant.
On the other hand I am quite sure that some other government employees like primary school teachers or policemen are spending their already meager income on paying rents to accomodate thier families in this expensive city. What is wrong with letting them stay in these flats at minimum rental while alternative us is being planned by the Customs Department? I am sure if we look around us we can find many more examples of such goverment assets which are allowed to rot for years with no one really caring to do something about it because it is not just their responsibility. Is it not time for the Government to put into effect a system where all assets are registered and annual reviews are made to see that no they are put to good use.
