21. Save my dogs

 rocket dead from poison.



Affidavit in opposition

Affidavit of Joshua Kong of NRIC 48XXX3-12-50XX

Mayor of Kota Kinabalu                                Applicant

Kong Yun Chee @ Joshua                           Respondent

1.     I live at House No. XXX, Lorong XXX, Taman Sri Kepayan, 88300 Kota Kinabalu together  with my wife.

2.     I have no children.

3.     I am elderly and my age is 65 and wife is 69.

4.     We do not deny that we have been rearing dogs within our house compound.

5.     On 29^th of  July, 2013, it was the first time DBKK people came over to the front gate of my house and two persons came forward to the gate.

6.     My dogs are very quiet and dogs being dogs when strangers approach the house, they did whatever other dogs would do.  My dogs naturally bark to notify me and my wife of the strangers.  The dogs being very sensitive to the environment would also bark against alien people including the Indon maid in the next house with extra extension to the partition fence doing her chores so near the partition fence and also walking so near the partition fence in addition to that the Indon maid would aggravate the tense situation by threatening my dogs with waste water thrown at them etc and the right neighbours also asked their friends and relative to come to their house walking up and down the edge of their house so near ours and also the dogs would howl at strange hours at night when they sense demonic charge in the air.  All these noises from the dogs can be accepted and tolerated as the benefits of the presence of dogs in the neighbourhood would sort of bring security alertness all the time.

7.     On that date 29^th of July, 2013, I have a total of 6 dogs.

8.     My dogs never disturb anyone or anything as alleged that any action be taken against them.

9.      Nobody was bitten or hurt.

10. No properties were damaged.

11.  No one lost their hearing or their sleep as a result of the dog barking.

12.  I keep my dogs in complete good hygiene because if the hygiene was poor, my dogs would have died.

13. It is only natural for dogs to shit and urinate just like humans.  It is part of the natural process.

14.  I would be worried instead if my dogs do not shit and urinate.

15.  I had always kept my dogs within the compound and only one occasion when the dogs managed to leave the premises only for limited few minutes due to the contractor poor workmanship of the second internal partition gate.  I called them back and they came back obediently within minutes.

16. The offer of compound is wrong and I should not have been compounded.

17. I have now licenced the dogs and working as a freelance person and no fixed source of income and do not have any pension to fall back on.  My dogs also partly depend on charity for their daily bread.

18. In the premises above, the application to destroy my dogs should be dismissed.

19. It would be cruelty to animals if the animals are shot and killed just because they bark.

20.  Why am I the only victim when there are so many households that keep so many dogs, cats and other animals like rabbit and poultry.

21. Does it mean that the wild animals apart from dogs as pets should all be killed by enforcement even the by-laws do provide for that and such by-laws were very poor in consideration for the well being of society.  Many more serious crimes committed by human beings do not face immediate destruction or capital punishment.  Recently two men were jailed for two years for causing death to Orang Utan in East Coast of Sabah.  So what would be the equitable treatment for human beings desiring the death of my dogs in the same vein of the dead Orang utan?

22. Complainants are not my neighbours as they have not responded to my circulars twice since 25^th of December, 2013 with an enclosed copy and the two complainants namely Puan Mariana and Puan Susie Soh have not responded to my text messages and no statements based on the incomplete complaint forms are available for this case to go to the Courts.

23.   One of the two complainants (both forms incomplete) by the name of Pn Susie Soh possibly linked to Soh See Yee – a criminal at large of several Police Reports - is just another closer indication of the Criminal conspiracy against me via the excuse of my dogs.  A Police Report is enclosed.

24. There are two valid Dogs Ordinance 1960 (Sabah No. 24 of 1996) and Kota Kinabalu Municipal Council (Registration and Control of Dogs) by-laws, 1963 have been observed with variances and inconsistencies.  So which one should be applied ?

25.  Despite several actions by DBKK to take my dogs by force which did not happen and DBKK could not reply to my letter of 17^th of January, 2014 over two important visits by the Minister in charge of DBKK and senior DBKK officers on 26^th of September, 2013 and 24^th of December, 2014 respectively.

26. The Application of the Mayor in the Magistrate Court with the Affidavit in Support of the Application to destroy my dogs are not in compliance of the Enactment No. 15 of 1996 in clause 5 (3) without the Seal of the Mayor attached thereon.  Also the Mayor had acted under unreasonable demands and instigation of others.

Dear Datuk Mayor,                

Re:  Criminal Conspiracy and Disturbances in our area & our complaints – Taman Sri Kepayan

Further to my several letters to you since we moved into this new area in late July, 2013, we are writing this for more information from you as this CRIMINAL Conspiracy is still on.

2.  We are not writing to the YB Datuk Edward Yong and we  hope you would extend a copy of this letter to him.  He did not reply to our letter together with the Memorandum on Guard Dogs in late August, 2013.

3.  The arrival of Datuk Edward at our house on 26^th of September, 2013 further confirmed Criminal Conspiracy which may be a mystery to you but not for us.  His arrival at our house had raised some eyebrows in Facebook and blogs as it had exposed his agenda.   A photograph of his presence is attached for your reference.

4.  Then the very prompt arrival on 24^th of December, 2013 of the DBKK’s staff of the division of health and animals control  (not identified to us) as shown in the second photograph further confirmed that DBKK is working for our right neighbour in the Criminal Conspiracy.  Without earlier communication with us, the arrival of four staff in a DBKK’s vehicle over the burial of our guard dog named Rocket on 21^st of December, 2013 after it was poisoned by the “right neighbour “.

5.                   We would appreciate that you would provide us with the Official Report for both visits in paragraphs 3 & 4

6.  We had already lodged complaints to DBKK for violations of the by-laws by  the neighbours and please take appropriate action.  We will provide photographs in due course.

7.                   We trust this would receive your prompt reply.

Thank you,

Yours faithfully,

Joshua Kong                        Mary  Kong

P/S:  Two strangers came to our neighbour house to the right  and allowed in by the maid to take photographs of

our back garden as invasion of our privacy at about 3pm yesterday. Mary’s request for identity was ignored.

 He also stated that City Hall under the Safe City Programme would install a total of 24 CCTVs around the city.---- dogs are better..than CCTVs.Joshua

Kota Kinabalu: Everyone must play a vital role in crime prevention, littering issues as well as in fighting vandalism, said Mayor Datuk Abidin Madingkir.
"The government has provided us lots of funds for facilities.
The people need to change their mindsets because they tend to damage and refuse to look after the facilities provided for them," he said, adding that they had also spent a lot of money on maintenance.
"For example, the cycling track at Tanjung Lipat. It has not been officiated yet but it has already been fully utilised and this shows that the project had benefited the citizens of Kota Kinabalu," he said.
However, according to Madingkir, it was reported that motorcyclists had used the tracks for racing purposes.
"The tracks are not even meant for motorcycles and our enforcement had worked very hard to stop this activity," he said, adding that when it comes to vandalism, even steel planted in concrete can be pulled out by irresponsible individuals.
He also said it is the duty of the citizen to work together and not to put the total blame on police or City Hall.
"When there are problems concerning rubbish, then the people would put the blame on the Mayor and City Hall. However, they should realise that instead, it is our duty - it is the duty of the community in the city to help with these issues," he explained.
Madingkir said this when officiating at the Cleaning of Black Spot Areas Initiative Implementation Workshop 2014 at Kota Kinabalu Study Centre, Kingfisher Park, here, Thursday.
"Therefore, today we should all make full use of the workshop to discuss issues for the locations involved which are Inanam and Luyang.
It is through this workshop that we are able to voice out our ideas, not only in Inanam and Luyang but also at the other places in Kota Kinabalu," he said.
According to Madingkir, the locations involved in the programme are Inanam town, Inanam Laut, Inanam Bus Terminal, Kolombong as well as other places nearby whereas Luyang includes places such as Damai, Foh Sang, Bornion, Lintas, Lido and others nearby.
"We hope to determine the problems and issues around these areas besides the suggestion of location for the DBKK Safe City Programme 2014, for example, the fixing of street lights, road dividers, reminder signboards as well as motorcycle parking lots with locks," he added.
He also stated that City Hall under the Safe City Programme would install a total of 24 CCTVs around the city.
Madingkir explained that Black Spot areas do not refer solely on the high index of crimes but also filthy and unmanageable areas involving unhealthy activities such as selling contraband cigarettes.
"We need to install CCTVs on these areas," he added.
Previously, he said City Hall had received RM2. 375 million from the Ministry of Home Affairs in 2013 for the Safe City Programme.
Madingkir said he hoped everyone would discuss measures to clean the mentioned Black Spot areas, which would later be realised, documented and implemented by City Hall.

Stray dogs turn nasty in P'pang

District Council workers have been mobilised to deal with the presence of stray dogs wandering about Taman Delima.

A Council spokesman said its workers would make random visits to the neighborhood to minimise this nuisance. 

"Our staff will try to catch as many of these canines as they can," he said.

"Dog owners should ensure that their dogs are licensed and kept within their compound, if they do not want their pets to wind up in our keeping," he said.

He warned that even licenced dogs could be caught, if they were found wandering unsupervised in public places.

This action follows the plea from a mother whose son was bitten by two dogs recently.

Susan said her l0-year old was cycling along the housing road, when he was attacked by the canines.

"He had to receive an injection for the bite marks he had on his calves," she said.

"My husband spoke to the owner of the dogs and asked him not to let his pets wander around the neighbourhood." 

Nevertheless, she hoped the Council would intervene to ensure that the public, including pedestrians, the elderly and other children, who used the housing roads there did not come to harm.

She said many parents were reluctant to let their kids play outside the compound of their homes after what happened to her child.

16. Cannot kill birds but OK for dogs

DBKK has been killing dogs - strayed one or not??? Joshua

City Hall in a fix over bird droppings

by Chok Sim Yee. Posted on October 11, 2013, Friday

KOTA KINABALU: City Hall is open to any constructive suggestions on how to reduce bird droppings in the city.
Mayor Datuk Abidin Madingkir said City Hall had done its best to resolve the issue, such as cutting down branches of trees used as a resting place by the birds and putting up bright lights in an effort to prevent them from spending the nights there, but all these have been to no avail.
“Cutting down the trees is out of the question because it is (a) sensitive (issue). I cannot kill the birds, as it would be wrong (to do so)!”
Abidin was responding to Kapitan Lim Shim Min’s recent statement on the issue of bird droppings along Gaya Street, especially near Jesselton Hotel, after officiating at the installation ceremony of DBKK Toastmaster Club here yesterday.
He said the trees that were chopped down along Gaya Street recently were infested with termites.
Instead of replanting the trees, City Hall decided to provide more parking spaces for the people, he said.
“Some people are happy, but some people are upset (about cutting down the trees at Gaya Street),” he noted.
Abidin said installing roofs might not be a viable option as it might affect the trees and the people may complain that the roofs compromised the aesthetics of the city.
“If we were to use creative rooftops, people may say we are wasting money just for bird droppings,” he lamented.
Hence, Abidin said, the short-term solution was to clean the bird droppings as soon as they started to accumulate.
“I’ve instructed my men to monitor and clean (the bird droppings). I know the problem will never end. We clean today, by nighttime the birds will come and there will be bird droppings the next day,” he said.
Any constructive suggestions to resolve this issue would be most appreciated, he reiterated.

Datuk Mayor,                                        By Hand                 10^th October, 2013

Dewan Bandaran Kota Kinabalu,

Kota Kinabalu.

CC:         Director – General

                DBKK,

                Kota Kinabalu.

Dear Datuk Mayor,                        

Re:  Criminal Conspiracy and Disturbances in our area & our complaints – Taman Sri Kepayan

Further to our letter to you Yang Berhagia, the DG of DBKK, YB Assistant Minister dated 3^rd September, 2013 on the two matters above-mentioned, we write to protest against what happened at the DG’s invitation at very short notice of two hours to the Mesyuarat Berhubung Perkembangan Program Trap, Neuter and Release (TNR) Tanjung Aru at the 3^rd Floor of the DG office’s conference room at 2.30pm on 9^th October, 2013.  We attended the Program at such short notice.

2.             So the event yesterday at the DG’s conference room is just another continuance of the Criminal Conspiracy over an abused and petty dog issue.  We have stated our stand in several letters etc including a brief Memorandum to you and the Assistant Minister concerned and no reply has been forthcoming from the YB Datuk Edward Yong.  YB DEY (questioned motive) and DG came to our house on 26^th September, 2013 after we lodged a Police Report on 25^th September, 2013 on the Criminal Conspiracy.

                                                                                                                                                                                        

3.             Please don’t focus on the guard dogs we have that are doing a wonderful job in security for our family and the families around.  But focus on the rising crimes and DBKK has an important role in combating crimes in the city together with the Police to make KK City a safer place for all.   The complaints on various other violations of By – Laws we raised also need to be addressed immediately.

4.             It is sad that not many houses in KK have dogs and to avoid an extinction of that, some liberal policy must be in place unless some quarters so hate dog at their own peril when dog is another very important creation of God to be our daily visible friends while God is every where.

5.             The guard dogs are not nuisance to anyone unless deliberately agitated by neighbours to be so but likely criminal minded people are not only nuisance but menace to society.  So who should we take appropriate action to keep the peace in society?

6.                   Dogs cannot speak except by signs and human beings especially dogs lovers must speak out LOUDLY for dogs and justice for all. Justice for human beings should not exclude justice for the animals especially guard dogs that are doing great job.

7.             We trust that this matter of guard dogs be laid to rest while our complaints in paragraph 3 be acted upon without bias.

We thank you for reading yet another letter.

Yours faithfully,

Joshua Kong                        Mary Kong
