Hear the sound of chainsaw? Trees gone forever?


It has occurred to us that some of the residents, especially those staying at Jalan BK 3/3B, 3/3C and 3/3E, are still not awared that the green lung right in front of the their houses will be gone forever very soon.

All these trees will be chopped down & replaced with LRT track.

In case the residents haven't found out yet, the new Ampang line LRT track will be running RIGHT AT OUR GREEN LUNG, and not at the middle of Bukit Jalil highway.

In other words, all the TREES WILL BE CUT to make room for the new LRT tracks.

All the trees cut. This is what our green lung will look like very soon.

In fact, it can happen any moment now. Although  we are still fighting to keep the track off the green lung, the answer we get from Prasarana is not too encouraging. Although at this moment station no. 5 is cancelled, we are still left with the task of trying to get the track off our green lung.

That's why we need you, especially those staying at BK 3/3B, 3/3C and 3/3E to come forward to SHOW YOUR SUPPORT, since you are affected the most by this development.

Yes, you better wake up

There is a briefing again tomorrow at the time at location listed below that we want you to attend:

Date: 24th. March, Saturday
Time: 6pm (evening)
Location: 1, Jalan BK 3/3C (in front of En. Amin's house)
(near pedestrian bridge)

We will update all residents of the latest development on the LRT project. 

Time is running out. This will be our last-ditch effort trying to make something happen.

It is time to wake up before it is too late.

p/s: This blog is not going to reach everyone. So we need a favour. Check and see if your neighbours are awared of the problem. If not, inform them. Then ask them to inform their neigbours too..

Too close for comfort

Anyone who travels on Bukit Jalil highway can see the construction of LRT track is getting closer to our area. The barricades and piling machines are there, and some of us may have noticed workers are roaming in and out of our area. Needless to say, the decision has to be made very soon on the realignment of the tracks.

From the information we gathered recently, Prasarana has prepared their report for a second dialogue on the realignment. We will meet them again very soon to discuss the matter further.

We also found that their contractor had come in the other day to chopped off some of trees at our green lung. However, we managed to get them to stop until the final decision on the alignment of track is made.

Some trees already cut at our green lung

Some piling machines have also started work at Kinrara industrial area next to the pedestrian bridge, making one wonder if station no. 5 is back on again. However, Prasarana has told us that station no. 5 is still off at this moment. We just hope that they are not pulling our legs.

Honestly speaking no one can tell how the outcome will be on the realignment of the track. One thing for sure is the residents of BK3 have been showing great solidarity in the whole ordeal. We are still hoping for the best in the upcoming second dialogue in MPSJ. You continuing support is still required until the end.
