A jogging track for SS2 folk
Damansara Utama assemblyman Yeo Bee Yin and Petaling Jaya
city councillor responsible for the area Lee Suet Sen attended a ribbon
cutting-ceremony to launch the park.
Lee hopes residents will utilise the 220m-long track.
Yeo lauded the efforts of the Rukun Tetangga SS2B, adding
that they worked hard to make the track a reality and monitored the progress of
the project until it was completed.
“It is important to take ownership of what we have,” she
said.
The cost of building the track was borne by the state
government (RM18,862) and MBPJ (RM19,800) and took four months to complete.
RT SS2B chairman Edward Sta Maria thanked Yeo and Lee for
their support, and also the police.
“With the police presence, residents can use the park
freely,” he said, adding that undercover staff would also make their rounds. He added that with the track, it would be safer for senior
residents to exercise.
Residents celebrated the new jogging track with a line dance
and various games.
On another matter, Lee also advised residents to utilise
MBPJ’s free PJ City Bus service as it covers SS2.
“In the future, we hope to provide more routes for Petaling
Jaya,” he said.
