MUCH has been written as well as debated in a media as well as in amicable network facebook upon a implementation of a Automated Enforcement System (AES).
The Barisan Nasional (BN) leaders, specifically those from a MCA as well as Umno cronies, have been for a AES because they mount to have billions of ringgit in excellent collections yearly.
The people, particularly motorists, have been crying foul, as well as not without basis, which a AES was introduced for generating revenue akin to fleecing a people.
The implementation of a AES contingency embrace support usually IF a intentions have been great which is to save lives. Of march it will assistance revoke fatal highway accidents, though usually to a certain extent.
For example, in Australia, it is about frank coercion to save lives, not about environment up traps to excellent a people.
Another BN scam?
But here, it is obvious to all which a AES was implemented in bad faith, with a solitary intention to beget revenue.
We all know which speed is not a usually cause of highway accidents as well as fatal crashes. Other causes embody carelessness, drink-driving, ignoring trade regulations, detriment of concentration due to miss of sleep, bad driving skills arising from kopi lesen (driving looseness performed through bribes), to name a few.
If speed is a solitary criteria! for hig hway crashes, why have been there more deaths upon non-expressways? This direction is observed during all Ops Sikap festival operations.
Here have been 3 questions to back my argument:
Why contingency a AES coercion be privatised to assistance cronies have money, instead of benefiting a supervision as well as people? Privatising is about creation money, or else who would want to venture in to it? So, clearly, a focus is upon creation profits.
If a intention is unequivocally about saving lives, why have been there no clear signboards to warn motorists approaching dangerous stretches where a AES cameras have been installed to delayed down motorists, only similar to in Australia, a nation with a lowest rate of accidents in a world? No income to make?
At 90kmh or 110kph speed boundary upon expressways, isn't which too slow? In grown countries similar to a US as well as Germany, expressways have speed boundary in between 120kph as well as 160kph. Certain stretches have no speed limits. Why not in Malaysia? Again, no income to make?
Most Malaysian motorists do an average of 120kph as well as above. Alternatively, have been you additionally implying which a expressways have been not up to general standards, therefore we cannot be driving safely at, say 130kph?
No income to make?
Transport Minister Kong Cho Ha, amid ascent criticisms as well as objections from a people, appealed to Malaysians to give a AES a chance.
we would relate a sentiments of a people you have been only appealing for a possibility to enrich your cronies.
And MCA boss Chua Soi ! Lek curr ently (Nov 9, 2012) slammed Pakatan Rakyat (PR) for politicising a AES, likening a roads to a Iraqi fight section for a genocide toll.
So, is Chua additionally implying a open displeasure as politicising a issue?
This is not about politics, my dear Soi Lek. It is about BN cronies since a event to legally rob motorists.
Many arguments have been raised by a open as well as we echo upon a need to arrangement sincerity in wanting to implement a AES.
Proper warning signage, more unsentimental speed boundary as well as satisfactory compound excellent rates contingency be in place before AES can be acceptable.
Unfortunately, which would meant singular revenue for a crony companies, right?
Bulldozing coercion is definitely not a approach excusable to Malaysians. It's about good, honest as well as frank governance. Not about governing body or greed to enrich cronies.
