Political Announcement is still very far from our objective of a definite 'Black & White Out Of Court' Legal Solution

We learned from the press that the Selangor Government has officially announced that the Ayer Hitam Forest Reserve Cemetery Project is aborted.

In this regards, since the Selangor Government put the 'Cart before the Horse' (announcing the news before the issue is actually resolved) , SCT will maintain a cautious 'look and see' attitude towards the subsequent developments following this announcement.

We hope that YB Elizabeth Wong, the Exco representing the Selangor Government, will work seriously and diligently with the respective state agencies to resolve the Ayer Hitam Forest Reserve Cemetery Issue "once and for all" so that during "Case Mention regarding the Judicial Review of the Ayer Hitam Forest Reserve Cemetery Project" in Shah Alam Court on 16 March 2010, the Selangor Government can inform of the Court of an 'Out Of Court Settlement' where Ayer Hitam Forest Reserve will be permanently gazetted as Forest Reserve and cannot be converted into a cemetery forever.

Dear Fellow Residents,

Since all if us have fought long and hard to resolve this teething issue, we should never be satisfied with mere political promises and let our guards down but should continue to fight relentlessly until we get a 'Black And White Out of Court' Legal Settlement where Ayer Hitam Forest Reserve will be permanently gazetted as Forest Reserve and cannot be converted into a cemetery forever.

SCT hopes that all residents will continue to stand with us as ONE and together, we will protect our beloved Ayer Hitam Forest Reserve until the Cemetery Issue is resolved "once and for all".

Thank you for your trust and support.

regards,

Lee Wai Hong,
SCT Chairman
