(TMI) In the incident on October 9, a group of traders barred Oon from entering his office. He was shoved about before he was rescued by Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ) enforcement officers, who cleared the way for his passage through.
Councillor Lee Suet Sen said the traders had reacted violently to being moved from SS9A/13 to SS9A/12.
“They had come to MBPJ to demonstrate against the decision when Oon appeared,” he said.
Oon said he saw the group of traders at the foyer when he arrived at about 3pm that day.
“I went to greet them and was going inside when they stopped me. I told them that I was a councillor and they had no right to stop me from going into my own office. They shoved me and I stumbled backwards and that was when the officers stepped in,” he said.
Oon said the relocation of the bazaar was unanimously decided upon on March 27 at the council full board meeting.
“The reasons are because the bazaar causes disruptions and traffic problems in the area, and the lack of parking space,” he said.
Moreover, Oon said, 26 stalls were allowed in the new location, compared with only 18 in SS9A/13.
Kampung Tunku assemblyman Lau Weng San said the leader of the group of traders was Saminathan Kitchan.
“They had written to the menteri besar (Mohamed Azmin Ali) and the mayor (Mohd Azizi Mohd Zain), saying they had no confidence in the new location. But the new location is merely a kilometre away from the old one,” he said.
Lau said SS9A/12 was just as good as the old location and all it needed was time for the people to become aware of it.
