Fleetcards being held back from small traders with lorries



I am angry. My anger is based on a righteous form of anger of how people can treat their fellow human beings. 

        You can help by spreading the word to the traders whom you buy things from. Help them if they have not received their fleetcard after applying for a long time.

        Urge them to lodge a complaint immediately with the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (KPDN).  https://eaduan.kpdn.gov.my/aduansuri/ERnKKqAbjK 


        What Happened in this Case

        When the government implemented targeted subsidies to stop all the smuggling of diesel to neighbouring countries, it takes into consideration that subsidies still need to be given to businesses that are part of the supply chain for food and other necessities. 

        Every year, millions of Ringgit are lost due to the smuggling activities. Cheap diesel is transported to sell elsewhere at a higher price. The enforcement division of KPDN has raided a number of places where diesel is being smuggled elsewhere. Just go to TikTok and search KPDN and you will see a lot of the raids. 

        Fleetcards are designed to ensure that these eligible lorry owners who meet the criteria get their subsidies when they pump diesel. 

        Guess what happened? I was chatting with a small trader. Let's call his name Ahmad. Ahmad has one small lorry selling some food stuff. For two months he waited for his Fleet card. When he enquired with the petrol station staff, he was told: 


        He claimed that the ones driving the big lorries are given a stack of the cards while ordinary people like him get nothing. Waiting for two months, they were still not given the Fleet cards despite approval already given by the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living:


        It may not be only one petrol station or a company, but it could be more widespread. I hope the ministry will investigate and take to task companies that try to boycott the government's initiatives. 

Thank you, YB Fuziah

        In this case, the trader's complaint was channelled directly to the deputy minister, YB Fuziah Salleh who did a good job in assisting the trader. 

        Go to TikTok and you will see that she is always on the ground to monitor the situation. Both the late Salahuddin Ayub and Fuziah are what we need in our government. 


        This afternoon, Ahmad told me of the good news that he finally received his Fleetcard! Why so fast? 

        It's time for the Ministry to issue a warning against any petrol company or station that may be delaying the issuance of the Fleet cards. Why are they delaying the process? 

        Whether this is a case of one petrol company or one petrol station or just one or a few individuals, I do not know but the delay is really unfair to the small traders like Ahmad. 

        If you know of any of these cases, ask them to lodge their complaint to KPDN website. Provide all the necessary details for them to act: 
       https://eaduan.kpdn.gov.my/aduansuri/ERnKKqAbjK 

        Is this a sabotage on the ground? It is for me to know and for you to find out. But what I care for is that the country is not being sabotaged by anyone. We should all focus on rebuilding the country, and put politics aside until the next general election.

My heart will go on

  It must be at least twenty years ago when I first encountered Malaysia’s very own Stevie Wonder, Colin Ng Soon Beng. It was during Chinese New Year, at the home of a mutual friend. Colin was only about ten years old then. His mother introduced him to me as a “special child.” She said, “Pick a song. We’ll play it for Colin to listen, and he will play it back for you.” I chose My Heart Will Go On from Titanic. To this day, Colin still remembers that it was the song he played for me. Born with multiple disabilities, Colin’s journey has been anything but ordinary. Being visually impaired, he could not learn music the way most children do. Yet God blessed him with an extraordinary gift: a razor-sharp ear. He could identify the brand of a photocopier or the model of a car simply by hearing its sound. His mother, Janet, devoted her life to nurturing his talent. After losing her husband when Colin was 24, she became not only a mother but also a father figure, chauffeur, and companion in ...

DALAM EMPAT BAHASA/ IN FOUR LANGUAGES/在四种语言中/ நான்கு மொழிகளில்: A Piece of Good News Worth Celebratinng

Akhirnya, anak Sarawak ini — Soliman Wan — telah menerima kewarganegaraannya! Dilahirkan 52 tahun lalu di kawasan pedalaman Sarawak, bukan sesuatu yang mudah bagi ayah dan ibunya untuk ke bandar bagi mendaftarkan kelahriannya. Tambahan pula, pada waktu itu, ramai penduduk di Sabah dan Sarawak kurang memahami kepentingan dokumen rasmi sebagai bukti status kewarganegaraan. Soliman dilahirkan pada tahun 1974, ketika Malaysia baru berusia 13 tahun. Kefahaman mengenai kewarganegaraan masih belum begitu meluas, terutamanya dalam kalangan masyarakat yang tercicir daripada arus pembangunan dan sistem pendidikan negara. Kehidupan Soliman sebagai seorang pastor penuh dengan cabaran. Tanpa kewarganegaraan, beliau tidak dapat memiliki kad pengenalan, memohon pasport, membuka akaun bank, dan pergerakannya sangat terhad, malah di dalam negara sendiri. Gajinya terpaksa dibayar melalui akaun individu lain yang dipercayai. Kini, dengan penganugerahan kewarganegaraan ini, komuniti Kristian di gerejanya ...

Aduan Sifar: Tauladan Dato' Zahri Samingon menerajui Aduan Sifar untuk MBPJ perlu dicontohi oleh Yang DIPertua Majlis-majlis lain

  Saya amat kagum dengan Datuk Bandar Petaling Jaya, Dato’ Zahri Samingon. Dalam satu perbincangan ringkas melalui WhatsApp, saya menyuarakan kebimbangan bahawa kesesakan lalu lintas yang ketara berkemungkinan berlaku di persimpangan Jalan 16/11 dan Jalan 17/1 dalam beberapa bulan akan datang. Saya baru sahaja dimaklumkan bahawa satu lagi jemaah gereja berskala besar akan berpindah ke situ pada bulan Julai, yang hampir pasti akan menambah tekanan di persimpangan yang sedia sibuk tersebut. Dalam perbualan kami menggunakan WhatsApp, saya mengemukakan beberapa cadangan dan menjelaskan satu konsep yang saya percaya beliau sudah pun faham dengan baik, iaitu Zero Complaints (Aduan Sifar). Ini merupakan satu prinsip yang kami pelajari di bawah sistem Excellence Through Quality (EQ) yang diperkenalkan oleh guru kualiti Philip Crosby. Konsep Zero Complaints ini ringkas tetapi sangat berkesan—ia bermaksud bersifat proaktif : menjangka masalah dan menyelesaikannya sebelum ia menjadi isu awa...
