“The people of Taman Happy Valley have endured flash flood problems for many years. This project did not happen overnight. It is the result of persistent engagement, numerous site visits, continuous follow-ups with the relevant authorities, and a systematic effort to secure the necessary funding and approvals,” he said during a site visit today.

He added that while securing project allocations is important, ensuring proper implementation on the ground is equally crucial.

As such, he will continue to personally monitor the progress of the works and maintain close communication with the implementing agencies to ensure that the project is completed according to specifications and within schedule.

“As the elected representative for Kota Sentosa, my responsibility does not end with raising issues. It begins with identifying problems, engaging stakeholders, securing solutions, monitoring implementation, and following through until the issues are resolved.

“This is the systematic approach that I have consistently adopted in serving the people of Kota Sentosa,” he said.

He said the drainage upgrading project at Taman Happy Valley is a clear example of how longstanding community issues can be resolved through close cooperation between residents, government agencies, and elected representatives who are committed to seeing projects through from planning to completion.

At the same time, Yap also reaffirmed his commitment to continue working closely with all relevant agencies to address infrastructure, drainage, road safety, public amenities, and other community concerns throughout Kota Sentosa.

“My priority has always been to ensure that the needs of the people are heard and acted upon. I will continue to work diligently, systematically, and relentlessly to resolve issues affecting residents and to bring meaningful improvements to every part of Kota Sentosa.” — DayakDaily
