Penduduk Sepang Protes Ladang Khinzir dipindah ke Sepang - Residents Gather To Protest Proposed Pig Farm
Walaupun Hulu Kelang agak jauh dari daerah Sepang, ana bersimpati dengan masalah pemindahan berpusat ladang ternakan khinzir yang akan dihadapi oleh penduduk di Sepang. Kalaupun pentadbiran Dr Khir Toyo yang telah meluluskan pemindahan tersebut, perlukah kerajaan PR meneruskan? Tidak adakah jalan lain untuk berunding? Pakatan Rakyat adalah kuasa rakyat, bukan?
Jika projek pelupusan sampah insinerator di Broga yang menggunakan teknologi tercanggih itupun akhirnya dibatalkan setelah berpuluh-puluh protes dan kes mahkamah, tidak mustahil perkara yang sama berlaku di Sepang.
Walaupun MB Selangor memberi penjelasan bahawa dengan teknologi German yang akan digunapakai yang menelan belanja sehingga RM100 juta, tidak akan ada pelepasan sisa buangan ke dalam sungai dan udara, ana khuatir kesilapan manusia sedikit sahaja akan menyebabkan pencemaran yang memudaratkan penduduk, walaupun sistem itu berfungsi 99%.
Satu peratus mungkin kecil, tapi 1 peratus daripada satu juta khinzir dalam satu kawasan tertumpu seperti Sepang adalah tinggi! Ana tak tahu lah jika ada had bilangan khinzir yang dibenarkan nanti, cuma mengandaikan sahaja.
Sepang adalah nama yang sinonim dengan pelancongan dan aktiviti keantarabangsaan. Cyberjaya yang dikatakan koridor multimedia itupun adalah sebahagian daripada daerah Sepang. Putrajaya juga dilingkari Sepang. Seboleh-bolehnya, Sepang perlu bebas daripada imej negatif, waima apapun.
Ana harap kerajaan negeri akan terbuka mengadakan perjumpaan dengan penduduk yang terjejas, dengan melihat isu ini dari perspektif mikro mereka. Kebanyakan yang terjejas adalah penduduk beragama Islam, jadi sensitiviti mereka juga perlu diambilkira.
Begitu juga, penduduk Sepang diharap terbuka dalam perundingan tanpa pengaruh mana-mana anasir yang berniat memperlekeh kemampuan kerajaan baru antum.
Ana yakin ada penyelesaian yang baik akhirnya, kerana ini kerajaan PR, bukan kerajaan antik. Itu pandangan peribadi ana.

PROTEST… Residents from Sepang and Kuala Langat districts stage a demonstration in front of the Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah building in Shah Alam to protest the state government's move in approving the RM100 million modern pig farming project in Kuala Langat. Pix: Razali Nordin
SHAH ALAM, April 9 (Bernama) -- Some 200 people today gathered in front of the Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah building where the menteri besar office is located to protest the state government's move in approving the RM100 million modern pig farming project in Kuala Langat.
The protesters, who are residents of Kampung Tumbuk Darat, Tanjung Sepat, Tanjung Laut, Kampung Layang, Kundang and Kampung Indah, gathered from 10.30am, carrying banners to vent their dissatisfaction over the decision.
All the villages are located near the proposed project in Ladang Tumbuk.
One of the residents, Mohamad Tarmudi Tushiran, said a majority of people in the area objected to the project as it could cause pollution and give rise to the spread of vector-borne diseases, particularly the Japanese Encephalitis like what happened in Bukit Pelandok, Negeri Sembilan some years back.
He claimed that the area had already been the centre for small-scale pig farming for decades, causing pollution to the environment.
"We are worried that when the project takes off, the pig population will increase and this will aggravate the pollution further, with residents having had to put up with the stench from the farm," he said.
Menteri Besar Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim said yesterday that all pig farmers would be relocated to a centralised farm in Ladang Tumbuk within one year.
He said the farm, which fulfilled the high quality guidelines approved by the Agriculture and Agro-based Ministry, had been approved by the previous state government on Jan 30.
He said the new administration decided to go ahead with the project.
Former Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Mohamad Khir Toyo denied however that the former administration had approved the project on Jan 30.
Mohamad Tarmudi, who is also the Ladang Tumbuk village head, said tourism in Morib coastal areas as well as in Kelanang would also be affected as tourists would be repelled by the existence of what would be the biggest pig farm in Selangor.
He also handed over a memorandum from the affected residents to the political secretary of the menteri besar, Nik Nazmi Nik Ahmad, calling for the cancellation or relocation of project to Pulau Ketam where the majority of population were non-Muslim.-- BERNAMA

JUST call me Pak Abu, this is what Hulu Kelang state assemblyman Saari Sungib said when asked about his nickname.
The name is derived from Abu Urwah, which means father of Urwah in Arab after his first son and later became Pak Abu among his peers.
But did you know that Pak Abu was a Selangor hockey player and was in the national Under-20 youth squad?
Saari: ‘I want to help with housing and environmental issues.’
“My father was a canteen tauke and I was raised in the school area. I was left in charge of the sports room and got a good teacher, who coached me to play at the age of 11,” said Saari.
“I was then chosen to be part of the team and became the vice-captain. When I moved to Sekolah Tuanku Abdul Rahman, Ipoh, everyone just laughed at me seeing me with my hockey stick. But I pushed to make hockey a game that was played in school and when I was in Form 3, we had our own team,” he said.
Saari added that he even played for Perak's Under-16 and Under-20 squads in the 70s but gave the game up to pursue his studies in Britain.
“Right now I am enjoying my work as an assemblyman and I am able to share my vision as well as struggle with people from all walks of life.
“I want to improve the quality of life and help with housing and environmental issues. We plan to have weekly medical services with volunteer doctors, weekly free legal advice and develop Small Traders Assistance Programme for networking purposes,” he said.
He said on the religious front, he planned to rotate his ceramahs between local surau and mosques.

StarMetro: Name an idol (dead or alive) whom you look up to and why.
Saari: The Prophet Muhammad (S.A.W) was an exemplary man. I also admire people like Mawdudi, Hassan Al Banna and Sayyid Qutb, who had influenced my thinking, and orientation during my student days. They provided the framework on how I need to implement within the practical realities of society.
StarMetro: Any phobia? Scared of spiders, enclosed spaces, etc?

Pencinta Alam Masih Menaruh Harapan untuk Bukit Taman Melawati
The Star Metro, Monday March 31, 2008
Nature lovers still have hope for Taman Melawati hill
By FAZLEENA AZIZ
THE view from the Taman Melawati Hill in phase 3 is simply breathtaking. Standing atop the hill and watching the raptors fly across as part of its migration process, one is struck by the beauty of nature.
However, the hillside view might become a thing of the past as the Ampang Jaya Municipal Council (MPAJ) had given planning permission to develop the hill in Nov 2007.
The Save Taman Melawati Hill pro-tem committee, who organised the raptor migration watch, are still hopeful about saving the hill at the Appeal Board.
The view: Raptor watching might be a thing of the past if the Melawati hill is sacrificed for development.
Its committee vice chairman Dr Hamdan Mohd Salleh said that a hearing will held on April 14.
“We are disappointed that they managed to get approval from the Department of Environment, Department of Geosciences and Ikram (Public Works Institute of Malaysia).
“There was no proper Environmental Impart Assessment.
“They only did an Environmental Management Plan (EMP) for the area that covers 40 ha. Apparently only areas above 50 ha would be subjected to an EIA,' he said.
Dr Hamdan Kamat Nordin, 58, who came to watch the raptors, said developments should be done wisely to match nature.
“I love mountain climbing and hiking and green lungs allow you to pursue this.
“I am not totally against development but you have new technologies that allow things to be built without destroying nature,” he said.
Hulu Kelang state assemblyman Saari Sungib, who also joined the raptor watch, said that the track record of the land should also be looked into.
“We have to look into the legal aspect of the land transfer process from being a government land to the developer.
“We also have to see the assessment made on this proposed hillside development together with the stability of the slope,” said Saari.
Selangor state executive councillor for tourism, consumer affairs and environment and Bukit Lanjan assemblyman Elizabeth Wong, also joined to watch the raptors' migration.
According to ornithologist Mike Chong, 50, who has been watching the raptor migration at the hill for the past eight years, the commonly sighted raptors are Oriental Honey Buzzard, Grey Faces Buzzard Japanese Sparrowhawk, Chinese Sparowhawk and Black Buzzard.
He said the migration process is usually between early March and April.

Kelab Rekreasi Ulu Kelang Terus Perjuang Kekalkan Kawasan Hijau - Club to fight for green lung
Malay Mail, 23 Mar 2008
| There is still hope for the Ulu Klang Recreation Club. |
Hulu Klang State assemblyman, Saari Sungib promised to meet Selangor Menteri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim to defend the clubhouse and its football field from being demolished to make way for development.
Saari told The Malay Mail yesterday that the club had been 'pulled' from all sides and it is time the ownership be given to the residents.
"Several plans to develop the land were presented before but strong protest from UKRC members and Kuala Ampang residents to save their green lung forced them to be held back." He said if the land needs to be developed, the development plan must benefit the residents and club members.
"But the recent development project on the field will only benefit the developer. The residents would lose their green lung." "I believe the people have a right to the land and I will defend it. I will help club members to get the field gazetted," said Saari, adding that most of the facilities at the club were built by the residents themselves.
UKRC president Andrew Gopal said they are confident that the controversy will be resolved soon.
"We look forward to co-operating with the new wakil rakyat to ensure the land remains untouched," he said.
The battle to save the club and its football field started on April 14, 1994, when the field was allocated for a primary school and 10 bungalow lots.
On that day, the Land Office had discussed the matter with UKRC committee members who agreed to the relocation of the field to a bigger plot 100m away.
In 1996, the then Hulu Klang State assemblyman Datuk Fuad Hassan confirmed the school project.
The club and residents nearby sent a protest note to the Gombak Land Office. They proposed that the project be shifted to the vacant land opposite another school.
The club fenced up its field and the issue died down.
In July 1998, two men tore down the fencing and claimed that parts of the field belonged to them. That was when club members realised the school pro- ject was still on.
The club appealed to the then Gombak MP, Datin Paduka Zaleha Ismail, and again to Fuad.
They also approached the Selangor Education Department but was told that the matter was out of their hands. They embarked on a signature campaign.
A petition was later submitted to then Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Abu Hassan Omar. A Gombak Education Office official confirmed that a school would be built on the football field.
On June 7, 1999, the Gombak Land Office sent proposals to the owners of 12 bungalow lots for which the field was to have made way.
The proposals asked the owners to consider an alternative site for their homes. In February 2000, UKRC members received a letter from the Selangor Economic Action Council (MTES). The letter, dated Feb 18, stated that the decision was made on Dec 15, 1999, to allow the field to remain and that the proposed primary school would be relocated.
However, the battle over the 1.2ha land began again in March, 2003, when Selangor Economic Development Corporation (PKNS) announced plans to build 80 units of low-cost apartments and 192 units of medium-cost apartments on the land.

PBT Selangor Cacamerba, Memang Perlu Pilihanraya PBT
Ana menyokong cadangan Kementerian Perumahan dan Kerajaan Tempatan (KPKT) untuk memperkenalkan semula pilihanraya kerajaan tempatan setelah 43 tahun.
Ini kerana PBT atau kerajaan tempatan adalah kerajaan peringkat ketiga selain kerajaan persekutuan dan negeri dalam sistem kerajaan tiga peringkat yang diamalkan Malaysia sejak 1957. Ketiga-tiga peringkat kerajaan mengutip cukai masing-masing daripada rakyat mengikut Perlembagaan.
Kerajaan tempatan mengutip antaranya cukai pintu dan lesen premis perniagaan. Maka sudah sepatutnya rakyat diberi kuasa memilih wakil mereka untuk peringkat tempatan.
Lagipun, ana lihat bila tidak ada tekanan pemilihan melalui proses demokrasi, anggota majlis dan pengurusan PBT lebih-lebih lagi di seluruh negeri Selangor terlalu ambil mudah tanggungjawab mereka. Khidmat perbandaran tidak menepati tuntutan penduduk, tidak ada keseragaman dalam polisi dan penguatkuasaan. Ana melihat terlalu banyak 'misteri' dalam pengendalian PBT selama ini, sepertimana yang pernah disebutkan oleh bekas Timbalan Menteri di JPM, Datuk M. Kayveas beberapa tahun lalu.
Ana mendapati sejak tahun bertahun keadaan menjadi daripada buruk kepada teruk (bad to worse). Antara yang teruk bagi ana adalah MPAJ, di mana DUN Hulu Kelang keseluruhannya terletak di bawah pentadbiran MPAJ ini.
Antum yang menetap atau bekerja di Ampang, Hulu Kelang, Bukit Antarabangsa, dan Pandan mungkin perasan betapa cacamerbanya MPAJ dalam aspek pengendalian lampu isyarat dan penyuraian trafik, dalam kelulusan pembinaan, dalam penguatkuasaan tempat letak kereta, dalam pemasangan dan spesifikasi papan tanda, dalam pembinaan dan spesifikasi siarkaki, dalam pemberian permit membina gerai di bawah pokok, di atas siar kaki dan kaki lima, dalam aspek lanskap dan perparitan - terlalu banyak untuk disebut satu persatu.
Bukan sahaja MPAJ yang begitu, malah hampir kesemua PBT begitu. Sekarang ini, jika antum pergi ke Shah Alam yang bertaraf bandaraya itupun seolah-olah terasa seperti 'ghetto' di Detroit, dengan jalan berlubang, grafiti di tepi-tepi kompleks, kawasan pembinaan yang tiada sistem keselamatan dsbnya. MBSA, MPAJ dan yang sewaktu dengannya mungkin mempunyai sijil ISO, tapi kualitinya hampir zero!
Dengan tergantinya kerajaan Selangor kepada Barisan Rakyat, ana menaruh harapan prestasi PBT seperti MPAJ akan menjadi lebih tersusun dan bertambah baik. Namun, kita harus sedar kerajaan negeri masih mempunyai limitasi kerana wakil parti-parti politik dalam majlis kerajaan tempatan menduduki jawatan sambilan yang mempunyai skop yang terhad. Walaupun ada PBT seperti MPKj yang memberikan skop tambahan kepada anggota majlis, umpamanya mengepalai zon-zon dengan mempunyai kakitangan sendiri, namun keberkesanannya terus menjadi tandatanya.
Dengan adanya pilihanraya tempatan, skop anggota majlis yang dipilih rakyat bakal menjadi lebih efektif. Mereka akan dinilai oleh rakyat, tidak lagi oleh parti sendiri. Penilaian rakyat terhadap prestasi anggota majlis kerajaan tempatan adalah lebih kuantitatif, iaitu mudah dilihat kerana sebarang keputusan dan polisi kerajaan tempatan selalunya sampai cepat kepada rakyat.
Ana yakin, mereka yang terpilih melalui proses pilihanraya kerajaan tempatan akan menjadi lebih produktif, inovatif, dan mesra-rakyat.
Ini kerana PBT atau kerajaan tempatan adalah kerajaan peringkat ketiga selain kerajaan persekutuan dan negeri dalam sistem kerajaan tiga peringkat yang diamalkan Malaysia sejak 1957. Ketiga-tiga peringkat kerajaan mengutip cukai masing-masing daripada rakyat mengikut Perlembagaan.
Kerajaan tempatan mengutip antaranya cukai pintu dan lesen premis perniagaan. Maka sudah sepatutnya rakyat diberi kuasa memilih wakil mereka untuk peringkat tempatan.
Lagipun, ana lihat bila tidak ada tekanan pemilihan melalui proses demokrasi, anggota majlis dan pengurusan PBT lebih-lebih lagi di seluruh negeri Selangor terlalu ambil mudah tanggungjawab mereka. Khidmat perbandaran tidak menepati tuntutan penduduk, tidak ada keseragaman dalam polisi dan penguatkuasaan. Ana melihat terlalu banyak 'misteri' dalam pengendalian PBT selama ini, sepertimana yang pernah disebutkan oleh bekas Timbalan Menteri di JPM, Datuk M. Kayveas beberapa tahun lalu.
Ana mendapati sejak tahun bertahun keadaan menjadi daripada buruk kepada teruk (bad to worse). Antara yang teruk bagi ana adalah MPAJ, di mana DUN Hulu Kelang keseluruhannya terletak di bawah pentadbiran MPAJ ini.
Antum yang menetap atau bekerja di Ampang, Hulu Kelang, Bukit Antarabangsa, dan Pandan mungkin perasan betapa cacamerbanya MPAJ dalam aspek pengendalian lampu isyarat dan penyuraian trafik, dalam kelulusan pembinaan, dalam penguatkuasaan tempat letak kereta, dalam pemasangan dan spesifikasi papan tanda, dalam pembinaan dan spesifikasi siarkaki, dalam pemberian permit membina gerai di bawah pokok, di atas siar kaki dan kaki lima, dalam aspek lanskap dan perparitan - terlalu banyak untuk disebut satu persatu.
Bukan sahaja MPAJ yang begitu, malah hampir kesemua PBT begitu. Sekarang ini, jika antum pergi ke Shah Alam yang bertaraf bandaraya itupun seolah-olah terasa seperti 'ghetto' di Detroit, dengan jalan berlubang, grafiti di tepi-tepi kompleks, kawasan pembinaan yang tiada sistem keselamatan dsbnya. MBSA, MPAJ dan yang sewaktu dengannya mungkin mempunyai sijil ISO, tapi kualitinya hampir zero!

EXCO baru Selangor Berwibawa
Ana mengucapkan tahniah kepada MB Selangor TS Khalid Ibrahim kerana berjaya membentuk sebuah kabinet negeri yang pada ana seimbang, dan berwibawa. Yang menarik juga, umur purata anggota EXCO adalah 42 tahun dengan Ian Yong EXCO termuda berumur 29 tahun.
Ana harap ahli EXCO Selangor yang baru - Theresa (DAP), Ronnie (DAP), Xavier (PKR), Elizabeth (PKR), Yaakob (PKR), Rodziah (PKR), Ian Yong (DAP), Dr Hassan (PAS), Dr Halimah (PAS), Iskandar Samad (PAS) - dapat berganding bahu dengan wakil-wakil rakyat yang lain untuk mengubah pola pemahaman "bekerja untuk rakyat".
Prestasi EXCO dan wakil rakyat yang seimbang akan terus dipantau oleh rakyat serta bloggers yang memfokuskan perkembangan negeri Selangor seperti ana. Mereka yang tidak menunjukkan prestasi yang baik harap bersedia ditegur antaranya oleh blog ini. Yang menunjukkan prestasi memberangsangkan perlu dikekalkan selepas 2 tahun.
Selain isu tanah, pendidikan, kerajaan tempatan, wanita, pelaburan, gaji minima, dan sebagainya yang wajar diberikan perhatian segera oleh setiap EXCO yang dipertanggungjawabkan, ada satu isu yang sampai kepada ana, dan ana harap TS Khalid akan berikan perhatian sewajarnya.
Iaitu isu kakitangan kerajaan negeri samada di pejabat SUK dan agensi-agensi kerajaan negeri yang masih bertaraf "kontrak" walaupun ada di antaranya telah bekerja lebih 10 tahun. Mereka bertugas dengan penuh dedikasi semasa zaman pemerintahan BN dahulu dan akan lebih berdedikasi lagi selepas ini dengan kepimpinan yang baru, namun mereka berharap akan mendapat pembelaan sewajarnya.

Janji Pak Abu dan Pusat Khidmat Masyarakat DUN Hulu Kelang
1) Memperkasa Agenda Pendidikan di Hulu Kelang
2) Meningkat Kualiti dan Prestasi PBT
3) Membela Kebajikan Wanita
4) Meningkatkan Keselamatan Penduduk
Selain manifesto PAS-PKR yang merupakan siri berita gembira kepada rakyat dan penduduk di Selangor, warga Hulu Kelang juga boleh menadah tangan bersyukur kerana wakil rakyat Hulu Kelang yang baru, Pak Abu, merupakan seorang yang berwibawa tinggi dan berpandangan jauh. Semasa berkempen beliau telah menggariskan empat objektif setempat yang akan beliau bawa dan cuba capai apabila menang. Empat objektif ini adalah berkaitan pendidikan, prestasi PBT, kebajikan wanita, dan keselamatan.
Kini, alhamdulillah Pak Abu telah menang dan objektif tersebut menjadi janji yang mesti diusahakan. Strategi dan caranya, kita serahkan kepada Pak Abu untuk memperincikan, namun kita berharap beliau akan berkongsi dengan kita rancangan beliau.
Ana baru-baru ini berkesempatan menemui Pak Abu dalam satu majlis meraikan petugas di AU1A, berbincang dengan beliau tentang keperluan diujudkan Pusat-pusat Khidmat di serata Hulu Kelang. Dalam kesibukan, ana memberitahu beliau hasrat bersama rakan-rakan mengoperasikan satu pusat khidmat dengan seberapa segera di AU1.
Antara pertanggungjawaban pusat-pusat ini adalah untuk membantu beliau 'deliver on his promises', termasuk empat objektif yang digariskan di atas berkaitan pendidikan, wanita, PBT dan keselamatan.
Pak Abu sangat positif dengan pandangan ana tadi dan akan memanifestasikannya secepat mungkin. InsyaAllah.

Membersih dan Memperkasakan Hulu Kelang
Selamat Datang ke Blog Hulu Kelang Fahmi!
Hulu Kelang. Ada yang menyebut Ulu Kelang (UK atau Ukay). Ianya adalah kawasan pinggiran bandaraya atau "suburban area" di dalam daerah Gombak, Selangor. Malahan, Hulu Kelang adalah mukim yang berbetulan paling hampir dengan pusat bandaraya Kuala Lumpur (contohnya, zon Au1 hanya terletak 2km daripada Menara Berkembar Petronas atau KLCC). Geografinya, Hulu Kelang terletak di pinggir sebelah timur ibukota Kuala Lumpur dalam kawasan pentadbiran pihak berkuasa tempatan Majlis Perbandaran Ampang Jaya (MPAJ).
Hulu Kelang bukan UK iaitu sebuah negara moden di Eropah, atau HK sebuah bandaraya moden di China. Hulu Kelang tidaklah ulu seperti Ulu Tembeling di Pahang atau Ulu Tiram di Johor. Bagi ana*, Hulu Kelang bertaraf semi-maju dan semi-'mediocre', walaupun negeri Selangor di bawah pentadbiran terdahulu pernah mengisytiharkan Selangor negeri maju tahun 2006 (ana akan huraikan di masa akan datang mengapa ana menggunakan perkataan 'mediocre' dalam menggambarkan Hulu Kelang.)
Maju atau tidak, ana dapati proksimiti Hulu Kelang dengan ibukota menempiaskan jua rona-rona dosa sebuah metro, walaupun terdapat pancaran sinar pahala sekali-sekala.
Hulu Kelang mempunyai penduduk berbilang kaum, namun majoriti penduduknya adalah golongan Melayu-Islam. Kebanyakannya berpendidikan sekunder dan tertiari serta bekerja di pelbagai sektor samada sebagai profesional, semi-profesional, ahli korporat, pasukan keselamatan, peniaga, usahawan, anggota sektor perkilangan, surirumah, pelajar kolej dan sekolah, serta kanak-kanak. Kepelbagaian strata masyarakat ini merupakan hikmah juga cabaran kepada pemimpin yang diamanahkan menjaga kepentingan Hulu Kelang, samada wakil rakyatnya, pemimpin persatuan penduduknya, penghulu, ahli jawatankuasa masjid, surau dan rumah-rumah ibadat, pertubuhan politik, ahli majlis MPAJ dan sebagainya.
Niat ana memblog tentang Hulu Kelang adalah niat luhur dan kerana Allah Taala jua. Setelah menetap di kawasan ini sejak 1990 dan melihat perubahan fizikal dan sosial yang berlaku di Hulu Kelang selama ini - yang masih kuat bercampur antara positif dan negatif - ana bertekad untuk bersama-sama pihak yang seniat, menukar imej Hulu Kelang daripada imej 'mediocre' (lembab) menjadi BERSIH LAGI PERKASA.
Bersih daripada pencemaran alam sekitar;
Bersih daripada kebobrokan gejala sosial;
Bersih daripada dikuasai pemimpin yang mementingkan diri sendiri;
Bersih daripada kejumudan fikiran;
Perkasa dalam modal insan;
Perkasa dalam kemakmuran hidup berjiran;
Perkasa dalam aktiviti kerohanian;
Perkasa dengan aktiviti ekonomi semua kaum;
Perkasa dalam penggunaan infrastruktur;
Perkasa dalam percambahan ilmu generasi muda.
Ana berharap blog ini, dengan kisah, komen, foto, video dan apa saja mode yang dianggap sesuai, mampu sedikit sebanyak membuka minda kita semua untuk berbincang demi kebaikan Hulu Kelang. Ia juga akan dijadikan penghubung rakyat di Hulu Kelang dengan wakil rakyat berkaitan.
Hulu Kelang Bersih dan Perkasa! Itu moto yang ana bawa.
*Ana == saya, tapi bunyinya lebih informal.
