SUBANG KIDS PRESENT COMPOST FERTILISER TO PM


SUBANG JAYA youth who are part of the Community Composting project got a chance to meet Prime Minister Dato Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi today, and what better gift to present to him but a few bags of compost fertiliser produced by them.
Abdullah who appeared very surprised and pleased with the initiative by the youth asked several questions and later congratulated the children who were there to see him during the launch of the Buy Malaysian Products Campaign launch at Mydin USJ.
The community composting project which took off in October last year is being carried out as a pilot project by the youth in collaboration with the Subang Jaya Municipal Council, Subang Jaya State Assemblyman Hannah Yeoh, Mydin USJ, Starbucks and SJ Echo.

SS14 Neighbourhood Watch Takes to the Streets





THE recent spate of attempted burglaries and the coming festive season has prompted residents of SS14/7 who formed the SS14 Neighbourhood Watch more than 3 years ago to take to the streets last night.
More than 20 residents comprising of men, women and teenagers went out on a 2 hour night patrol around their neighbourhood, taking efforts to deter any would be incidences of crime in their area.

To their surprise halfway through their walk, was the arrival of ADUN Subang Jaya Hannah Yeoh and her husband Ram who joined them for 45 minutes during their rounds.
This group of residents will meet weekly to patrol the streets, complementing the existing smaller groups in the neighbourhood who have been patrolling the streets daily on a roster.
Smaller groups patrol the streets day and night within their own schedule either on foot, bicycles or in their cars.
