The name change of Jalan Alor to Jalan Kejora has become the talk of the town. From the hawkers to tourist to the ordinary citizen was not too pleased about the name that has become more of a houshold name for its eateries for over 35 years sudenly got a new name to fit the other names of streets around it.
In the latest development Federal Territories Minister Datuk Seri Zulhasnan Rafique has said that Jalan Alor will keep its name! This can be only good news for 2 reasons the way i see it.
1) The street which name is already known can stay the way it is and people will be able to easily find it and not go in circles because its called Jalan Kejora now!
2) The government are actually listening to the cries of the people and taking it seriously! ITS ABOUT TIME!
Having said all that, i hope that the government will be more sensitive towards issues like renaming streets, as lots of people take pride in “minor issues” like this and its important to get the general consensus before making such harsh decisions. The nation belongs to the people that live in it and not a few people who has the power.
