Community Sustainable Initiative - Desa Mentari Block 3, PJS 5

Others are complaining about how well this Block is doing due to resourcefulness of one of its residents as a MBPJ staff and his brother is the Councillor of MBPJ. But, to me this is not entirely correct. The RA of Desa Mentari Block 3 has managed to pull string through with their tireless efforts and persistent of getting things done. People relationship is so warm that you basically enjoy the stay there for any activities. They are helping each others and having the pot luck for their activities. I understood that many of their meetings are flooded with self prepared food by the women group, no special catering is required.

The women group is so active that during the dialogue with judges for the PJ Best Neighbourhood Award that the women dominated the discussion. You can feel the enthusiasm they have.

Inter-ethnic relationship is so cordial that there are no separation of colour in many of their activities. This is reflected with their agreement on demarcating special zone at the car parking area for specific use. For example, a zone is reserved for the non Islamic religious purpose.

I believe when we talk about the realisation of 1Malaysia concept, we do not need to create special programmes, but just to walk the talk and learn practical and pragmatic examples from these neighbourhoods.
