A video of a frustrated local resident taking matters into his own hands to address potholes in Taman Sentosa, Klang, has gone viral, drawing attention to the ongoing road condition issues in the area. In the 30-second video, the man can be seen painting over a recently tarred section of Jalan Hulubalang, expressing his dissatisfaction with the lack of action from the elected representative.
The video, posted by @NaratifRakyat two days ago on social media platform X, has garnered 264,000 views, sparking supportive comments from netizens praising the man’s initiative. Many residents shared their experiences of motorcyclists falling due to the poor road conditions.
The resident, frustrated with the unaddressed potholes, took it upon himself to use his own funds to fix the road, highlighting the urgency of the matter. In the video, he emphasises that the money used is from the public, not the elected representatives, to prevent any unwarranted claims.
@NaratifRakyat, who uploaded the video, pointed out that despite previous complaints to the local representative, no action was taken to repair the potholed road. The video prompted a discussion on the effectiveness of the local government in addressing residents’ concerns.
