KOTA BELUD: It is disappointing that the authorities have failed to maintain the wooden bridge in Kampung Pomotodon Taginambur within the Kadamaian state constituency, especially this year, which has been promoted as a successful year for the GRS PH Plus government with strong financial standing and high reserves.
Josely Taising, a potential candidate for the Democratic People’s Welfare Party (KDM) in Kadamaian, stated that the metal pieces visible on the wooden bridge crossing the stream in this tourist area are worn out and pose a danger to road users.
“I have been informed that previously, a tourist posted on social media expressing disappointment because their car’s bumper (small/low) was damaged/scratched.
“This is due to the ends of the metal pieces lifting when cars pass, causing the bumpers of low and small cars to get stuck,” he said in a recent social media post.
Josely expressed sympathy for the situation faced by the affected tourists and urged the relevant parties to take immediate action to rectify the issue.
“There is no reason for this public facility to be neglected, as the state government’s finances and reserves are strong.
“This (bridge) is just one of the complaints from the people… there are many others, and KDM is determined to advocate for the people’s welfare and realize it if given the mandate in the upcoming state election,” he said.
According to Josely, the bridge in Kg Pomotodon Taginambur in Kadamaian is the main route for residents of Kg Pomotodon, Kg Tiong Komburaon, and also for tourists visiting the area.
He mentioned that it is also the route for students of SK Taginambur and SMK Narinang.
