10 Accomplishments as State Assemblyman of Air Itam

It has been a year since I was elected as State Assemblyman for Air Itam. I try to capture what I have accomplished in a year as the legislator representing the residents of Air Itam.

1. Setup a Service Center at Air Itam.
During the election campaign, I have pledged to setup a service center. I converted my law firm - Wong Hon Wai & Co to become the service center. It was setup on April 12th - a month after I was elected.

I have religiously followed a schedule to meet the people every Tuesday night. Air Itam Service Center serves not only residents of Air Itam but also extended the service to peoples from neighbouring constituencies.

MPPP has done trial run and decided to switch off the traffic light at Kampong Bharu from 6.30am to 9am. This will improve traffic coming from Air Itam and Farlim towards Town during early morning rush hour.

(b) I am also working with Kek Lok Si on a new car park for tour buses.
