Everyday, at the Kuala Lumpur City Hall's enforcement directorate premises at Jalan Pekeliling, the 'wild, wild west' nature of the enforcement officers are everywhere and noticeable. Their offences are as follows:

  • enforcement officer riding without helmets on gazetted public roads.

  • DBKL vehicles parked along yellow lines and on road shoulders, for which others have been booked.

  • The personal cars of the DBKL officers are parked on the road side obstructing traffic flow. These cars are parked in a business area and compound traffic congestion in the area. This despite the fact that a huge parking lot in the area has been reserved for DBKL staff.

    • I hope the new City Hall mayor can have a look into this problem. It would be best to remind him that under the Constitution of Malaysia, everyone is equal before the law and DBKL staff are no exception.

    One recent morning at 8.25am, a DBKL vehicle (number plate WHQ 812) overtook vehicles in front of the Masjid Wilayah mosque at Jalan Duta using the taxi lane and causing great inconvenience to other motorists.

    One would have thought that there was a life threatening situation but the lorry was only rushing to stop at a food stall nearby.
