Pedestrian Walkway at Maxis Tower, KLCC

Lot of money spent on world-class infrastructure, only to be made inaccessible by imposing cones and chain.

Not satisfied with this blatant disregard for pubic convenience, I approached one of the duty security personnel who, to his credit, duly called his superior to try and explain to poor me the rationale or "irrationale" of such unnecessary infringement.

AND, am told that the cones and chains are necessary deterrent to prevent unauthorised parking of motorcycles; and this is an instruction from above.

What about the unnecessary inconvenience to pedestrians, I asked. Well, pedestrian can walk around the cones, or elsewhere (pointing to the road)! What about road safety?

Well, the towering block may be world-class but one obviously inhabited by third-world technocrats devoid of pedestrian safety!
