Dear Sir,
Poor Maintenance of Taman Jayadiri
I am writing this letter on behalf of the residents of Taman Mega to complain about the dismal conditions we have been putting up with for the past three months.
2. One of the main problems of the residents concerns uncollected rubbish. Initially, rubbish was collected three times a week. However, since August this year the garbage collectors have only been coming once a week. Our litter bins are always filled to the brim and we have no choice but to leave the bags of rubbish next to the bins. The rotting waste causes a terrible stench. Furthermore, stray cats and dogs scatter the rubbish in searching for food. This leads to unhealthy environment in the neighbourhood.
3. Lastly, most of the drains in Taman Mega are clogged with rubbish resulting the water becoming stagnant. It is not uncommon to see bottles, dry leaves and plastic bags among others in these drains. There is an urgent need to clear these drains as the stagnant water is an ideal breeding ground for mosquitoes. The residents are worried as there has been a sharp increase in dengue cases documented in the last two months.
I hope the council will look into our complaints and take prompt action to solve our problems.
Thank you.
Yours faithfully,
Zain Isma
