PENANG: A mother's love knows no bounds as she battles hurdle after hurdle to make sure that her youngest daughter gets her dream wedding.

Normah Mohd Noor, 50, had appealed several times to the police and representatives of the Northeast District and Land Office not to demolish a treetop foodstall in Tanjung Bungah, where her daughter's wedding ceremony was to be held.

CHEW wonders why it is taking such a long time for a tree posing a danger to her house in Kajang to be cut down.

She said she called the  Kajang Municipal Council on June 19 and asked its Landscape Department to send someone to chop off a big tree that has been resting precariously on the retaining wall behind her house.

"We would have cut down the tree ourselves, but it's dangerous to do so. We've tried appointing a contractor,
who wanted RM350 for the job. Money is not the issue, but we do not want to be summoned by the council as the tree is on public land."

AMP Radio Networks (AMP) and its eight stations including Era, My FM, hitz.fm and THR Raaga, threw their listeners a Tree Party at the Kota Damansara Community Forest recently.

LIM of Ampang is not happy with a tree growing in front of her house.

Afraid that it could topple any time, she contacted the Ampang Jaya Municipal Council five or six years ago, but nothing was done. Since then, the tree has  grown and extends across the front of her garden.

"Five or six years ago, it was quite small and easy to get rid of. Now, the trunk is so thick, I'm afraid it will be harder to remove the tree."
