Sinkholes following shoddy work


At  about 3.05pm on Sunday 19th May 2013,  while passing through Jalan Permai just opposite Lintang Permai 1, I noticed that there were 2 large sink holes on the left hand side of the road.  They were each measuring 4 metres by 2metres and about 2 metres deep.  These 2 sink holes were being filled up with sand by an excavator and a manual compactor was being used.  The surface was soft with the possibilities of fresh sink holes appearing.

This is unacceptable as it posses a great danger to motorcyclist especially at night.  It is surprising that such shoddy work is being carried out apparently after the laying of drainage pipes.  We are also shocked that there is no check on such dangerous roadworks being done along Jalan Permai.  Many of the residents we spoke to voiced out their apprehension and fears.

We urge the authorities to check and take immediate action before accidents take place.
