Letter to MBPJ/PJ council

Dear Mr. Terence Tan Teck Seng,
RE: ANIMAL CRUELTY BY MBPJ OFFICERS
By now, you must have seen the viral video on Instagram of animal cruelty by an MBPJ officer or several MBPJ officers. As a ratepayer in Petaling Jaya, and a long time voter DAP voter, I am hugely disappointed, and expect you to take action against the officer(s). Taking action is not just transferring them to desk duty -- it is putting them on a performance improvement plan (PIP), closely monitored, and then a sacking. In fact, the brutality suggests a sacking is in due, even without a PIP.
