Breaking New: KL Flash Flood again 13 Dec 2011

KL Flash Flood again. The same venue again. It's at National Library in front of National Heart Institution.
I was wondering why the jam at Jln Tun Razak so heavy and unusual unlike normal days.

My guess, something was happening in front and i was right. It's flash flood...

Above and below were taken from twtpic Abinesh user

A nearer view photo below was taken from Facebook the truly amazing social media tool. 

The Smart Tunnel failed to protect KL from flash flood again! 

As usual, there's no DBKL officials / traffic warrants in control of the traffic nor diverting the traffic. ok, it's called "flash" flood, perhaps the DBKL officers have not sufficient respond time to act. LOL. 

Let me bring you to sunshine day of Jln Tun Razak the place where currently being flooded. 

Can see the smooth traffic on one sunshine Sunday.  

Here come the drainage that can not cope with the overflow water and causing the floods NOW as 1st 3 photos above. It's just a small drainage ! How would you expect its can prevent flood or cope with huge volume of water like today's rain fall.   

It's just a small drainage! The situation become worse when KL-ians staying around throwing rubbish into the river. As you can see, the drainage is clean on normal day. 

To drivers who stuck in jam for hours in Jln Tun Razak, this photo is a heaven to you! How would wish it's a  sunshine day today! 

No far away from the flash flood venue, there's a huge big concrete river to cater the huge volume of rains fall... When this river is overflow, Jln Yap Kwan Seng will be the flash flood victims. But so far, there's no twitter report that Jln Yap Kwan Seng is flooded. 

Y KL FLOOD? Over-development? Rubbish? 

Many factors. Be its human or natural. 

Soon, there's will be 3rd KL flash flood at the same venue, 4th and 5th if we never change our attitude of take good care of our river. 

We can protect our river by not simply throw rubbish !!! It's as simple as ABC! 

I'm wondering the multi billions dollar River of Life project which include river cleaning and beautification do include in smaller drainage like the 1 near National library? You can see how amazing is the artist impression of multi-billions River of Life project below. 

Wondering are ETP_roadmap able to ensure the River of Life project budget are well spend and planning too. 

No point you have a such high class beautiful river along Sg Klang and Sg Gombak, yet few KM away, there's a flash flood. 

It's just too complicated to just "wondering". 

Pray for Flood Free KL. 

End.

Breaking New: Bus Accident @ Highway

My friend uploaded this photo on her FB.
Bus express accident at somewhere of highway, and just now. My friend posted she was ok. Thank you.
How on earth a bus express can derail off track the highway !

This recalled my own experience with bus express when im back to KL from Butterworth 2 years ago.
I was sitting in front, was enjoying my sleep, and i know the bus is entering the tunnel and going to downhill toward Ipoh.

As we know bus uses air pump to break, whenever the bus express break, there's will be some air sound...
1 brake, have sound, 2nd brake have sound, not it's not breaking, not slowing down the bus, and 3rd time, i heard the bus driver sound "NO BREAK" ! im quickly opened my eye and i can see the bus is heading downhill without break!

Worse, there's a traffic jam in front! The bus is crashing right and left... and im at the back of driver shouting whenever the bus crashed the cars in front !!! I lost count how many cars the bus crashed, and some of the car being hit and dropped into the drainage!

How the bus would be stopped! There's a van become the victim. The bus vertical T-bone crashing the van, and dragged dont know so how far and its stopping the bus. I was in shock.

Thank god. I'm still in one piece blogging now. :)
