bye bye tickets


Local governments can't summon
For illegal parking, not displaying valid parking ticket
Open burning, dog licence without the approval of AG
So declared a recent High Court ruling in Pahang

Mini market owner Subramaniam Gopal aged 50
Defying the orders of the Lanchang Temerloh Municipal Council
Asking him to remove his fish and vegetable business to a new site
He claimed the market in the jungle way out of people reach

The High Court judge ruled it is against the Constitution article 145(3)
Now the Municipal Council must get the order from AG to prosecute
Any summon issue by its officers to the public......................
Others who face the similar prosecutions should challenge it
The High Court ruling has changed the way for the people

The Federal Consitution is the foundation stone for the nation
So whatever laws Parliament must take cognizant of the fact
This is also applied to the State Governments
Don't pass laws forgetting the rule of Constitution

Municipal Councils and City Halls should learn
The rights and values of the people enshrined shouldn't be taken away
It is time the Federal Constitution introduced as a study subject
For the secondary and university students.................
