BRAND NEW smart tunnel CONFIRMED leaking and cracking!...

loads how been said about the crap condition of the smart tunnel... fm daily newspapers to malaysiakini to blogs to international websites and to everywhere lah!...

honestly, smart tunnel is an AMAZING idea/constrcution with brilliant function and purposes!...

but... at the same time i find this video AMAZINGLY DISTURBING!... (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=24BfxA48aT8)...

if these kinda cracks and leaks are to be found 50-100 hundreds years fm now... then i think i may be able to understand lah...

but...

it's barely 2 months old... on top of that this smart tunnel 'officially' started on 23rd june 2007.. which is approx less than 1 week ago!...

i always have this thought... wat will happened if this tunnel were to collapse one fine day due to poor workmanship/maintenance and/or hvg problems exiting when there's fire and/or some kinda major crash in it and people stuck there for hours and/ot etc... not forgetting some people have phobia in 'staying' in there for too long tho... perhaps, only then uncle sam will have a 'good' to step down and/or his boss will have a 'good' reason to fire him?!?...

i wonder wat will mmc/gamuda and uncle sam say about this pathetically built smart tunnel which cost the govt approx rm 2 billion!..

remember the flood few weeks ago?!?.. think, they have a very 'good reason' why they cannot 'divert' the flood then... simply because the smart tunnel hv yet to operate fully then... now, it will be interesting if another flood were to happened in kl, we shall see how 'functional' is this tunnel for a start... i have done a random little survey with some of my frens and over the net for my personal research, with the question... "do you have confidence with the safety and/or the function of smart tunnel?!?"... you go figure some of the results/comments i get...

when this article came out... (http://thestar.com.my/news/story.asp?file=/2007/6/25/central/18119440&sec=central)... i tot to myself how 'nicer' can it be reported...

btw, which parents allowed their kids to talk bad about the family?!?...

as reported.. “The cracks are only on the surface and not structural. Water seepage is common in any project if it is below the water table. I agree that this can be improved but I think this is within the tolerance level,” he said."...

he THINKS it is within the TOLERANCE level?!?... wtf?!?.. is he or rather are they compromising the SAFETY of malaysians who uses the tunnel?!?...

they say they can improve on the tunnel, but it was not mentioned wat kinda improvement are to be made to the tunnel, when they will do it, how they will do it, etc...

owhh yes, improvement will cost the rakyat.. errrrr.. perhaps another couple of millions of ringgit?!?... owhh wait a minute!... can almost see al-kisah mrr 2 flyover making a comeback! :) ....


p/s ; another malaysia BULL-EH project!...
