Why change the name of Jalan Alor?

There are certain things we just don’t do. Like changing the name of a street that’s already well-known in the world and a must-visit destination for tourists. Jalan Alor, famous for the wide variety of tasty and reasonably priced food up and down both sides of the street, was such a street that was unnecessarily renamed Jalan Kejora by DBKL recently. Many people are not happy with the change and they are speaking up against it.

Here’s one of the sms(es) I have received earlier this evening that reflects exactly the current mood of the majority of the rakyat …

“Change; When you want to change something, it must be for a reason. The obvious reason is for betterment. What is the reason for changing Jalan Alor’s name? Will the change bring betterments like prosperity to the traders and peace to the residence? Please discipline those people linked with the change as they must be doing things out of their whim and fancy.” – Davy

Kenapa tukarkan nama Jalan Alor?

Terdapat perkara yang kita patut tidak buat seperti menukar nama suatu jalan yang terkenal di dunia dan tempat yang mesti dilawat oleh para pelancong. Jalan Alor, terkenal kerana makanan sedap dan harga berpatutan di kedua belah jalan yang ditukarkan nama kepada Jalan Kejora oleh DBKL baru-baru ini. Ramai orang tidak gembira dan mereka bersuara menentangnya.

Ini salah satu SMS yang saya terima petang ini menggambarkan rasa tidak puas hati di kalangan majoriti …

“Tukar, bila nak tukar, ia mesti ada sebabnya. Sebab yang ketara adalah untuk menambah baik keadaan. Apakah sebabnya menukar nama Jalan Alor? Adakah pertukaran ini akan membawa kebaikan & ketenteraman kepada peniaga dan penghuni sana? Tolong ambil tindakan ke atas mereka yang bertindak atas karenah & kemahuan mereka sendiri.” – Davy
