Fined for parking in front of own homes, disgruntled residents seek help from Bukit Bintang MCA, DAP


BARELY a week after Kuala Lumpur police launched "Ops Respect Traffic Laws" in the city to nab traffic offenders, complaints have been pouring in from residents living in Salak South New Village and Desa Petaling – both townships located in the Bukit Bintang constituency – over claims of "high-handed" enforcement.

About 80 people attended a town hall session on Thursday (July 13), jointly organised by the Bukit Bintang MCA and DAP branches, to air their grievances after being issued with summonses for various traffic offences during the past two days.
