Something that will cheers you up.
The news in the market is about the latest word from Dato Beh, the bird nests traders association President, that the clause in moving birdhouse from town areas to agricultural land have been removed from the draft swiftlet farming guidelines.
Received a few calls from a number of my blog readers on the issue. It was mentioned in the Chinese Newspapers about one week's ago.
This must be one of the outcome from the meeting between JPBD and the representative from all the traders associations in Kuala Lumpur recently.
I remembered receiving a call from JPBD representative asking for the list of all the presidents and I told them to contact Dato Beh directly.
I am sure there more then one issues being adopted and the signs is positive.
The only problem that I predicted is the removal of those dog kennel entry system. For as long as this entrance system is not completely change to the top entry, the calling sound will not be eliminated.
Top entry will prevent the sound from spreading to the side neighbors. Normally the tweeters will be forced to face the sky and not the neighbors.
The biggest task now will be how to get those external sound be controlled. This will be a great challenge to the association and the local council.
I am sure there must be a compromised between the two parties:
"Okay we will take out the clause of moving out but the association must ensure that all birdhouse owners stop blasting those sound."
The issue here is that how many birdhouse owners are member of these association?
In Sabak Bernam recently, YB Ronnie Liew asked the President of the Selangor Birdnest traders association about the number of registered member. His answer was 200 and in Selangor there were at least 2,000 birdhouse owners. Only 10% and YB was shocked to hear that.
He proposed the Association to Organised another gathering to recruit all those non members to join the Association. I am not sure when but the message is clear. YB volunteered to be the Minister to attend the gathering.
I am very sure the other states have the same problem.
Many BH owners are not staying in the town that their BHs are located. This might be the biggest reason why many are not a member.
