More dredging ships and sand carriers taking sand from the sea bed in front of Batu Ferringhi Beach and Monkey Beach, to dump at Pulau Andaman for reclamation works.

Probably the main cause of beach erosions along Batu Ferringhi beach within the last 6 months from having a perfect beach up until then. Government approved these projects and for sand to be dredged from Lemut. This is nowhere near Lemut. Also, some of these ships transponders are switched off (illegal activity), because if on, we know exactly where they going to and from. The long dredger ship the Hong Fu 88 dredger boat in and out from batu ferringhi daily pulling sand for Pulau Andaman.

I wonder if the state government is tracking this developers movements because if they were, then they would know there’s something criminal going on against what was agreed.

I was driving on Batu Ferringgi Road when police escort with no kind of emergency nor busy traffic, cut over to my single lane from the other side of the road, to pass through, almost colliding with me and forcing me to move over where I have nowhere to move over to. They were horning and harassing me.

They were escorting a few VIP’s on super bikes going for a joy ride…

As I got on the Batu Ferringhi windy road, where I am on the side of a cliff drop, more police motorbikes were passing by ( without escorting anybody) and cut around a blind corner fully across the road into my lane and was horning me to move out of the way when he has 0 traffic infront of him in his lane to carry on driving following the rules. Furthermore it’s a double lines road and single lane either way.

It is officially illegal not to give way to police and escort in Malaysia, but at what cost when they are crossing into the opposite lane and endangering us motorists in the road? They want me to drive off the cliff edge or into the side curb to give way for them? In a non emergency situation with or without escorting anybody? Are police completely invincible to any road laws in our country?
