On 25th January, 2008 another bus crash claimed three young lives.
Lee Nian Ning.
Mohd Zailani.
Pang Boon Eng.
This evening I received an e-mail from Jolene which alerted me to an online petition, targeted at the Ministry of Transport, and which relates to this recent bus crash.
The petitioners ask :
‘What are the explanations?
Hundreds of thousands of university students just like Nian Ning and us rely on such public transport to travel back home. Human life should not be taken lightly.
How could a vehicle with 13 summonses be free on the roads and not held by the authorities? ‘
I have signed the petition to lend it the support it deserves. I think everyone should.
You can access the petition HERE.
Jolene and her friends also have a blog up and running to support this initiative. This can be viewed at http://buscrashnomore.blogspot.com/
Jolene & friends, you are the kind of anak-anak Bangsa Malaysia that must become the foundation of this country.

not the first time. the MT fella places more focus on approving mega projects such as the scandalous PKFA and the white elephant DOUBLE TRACKING NORTHERN REGION. Both runs into billions and you wonder how much are being leaked to line up the pockets of his cronies.
As far as safety is concerned, the only time he is interested is when the contract is lucrative enough. else, deaths are just statistics. afterall probably, in his mind, the deaths from each accident are insignificant compared to the daily usage numbers. why bother unless there is enough hue and cry from the public.
