                                                                      On 28.9.2023 there was an article in the Daily Express on higher penalties imposed by Sabah to prevent abandoned projects Here are some excerpts and my comments: It was noted that previously, besides licensed developers, there were also fly-by-night non-local operators in cahoots with Sabahan partners, whose firms were not members of the Sabah Housing and Real Estate Developers Association (Shareda). Topwira, the developer of Vistana Heights is not a member of Shareda. 

Mathil – The Wall – A Tamil movie

Image
                                                             Yesterday, I watched a Tamil movie, Mathil. Directed and acted by K.S. Ravikumar. I recommend all our Tamil-speaking friends to watch the movie. LINK The movie revolves around the life of Laxmikanthan, a common man, who takes on a corrupt politician after he damages the wall of his house for an election campaign. Can Laxmikanthan find justice? Does justice always prevail? Towards the end of the movie, the corrupt politician is told by his boss that whether he can become an MLA (A member of the legislative assembly) depends on him. He is responsible for ensuring that there is no black mark on him.
