Who Is Azlan Sani Zawawi

Azlan Sani Zawawi is no stranger to this fact, having lost seven friends from accidents due to road defects. Road defects are not a small matter that can be left unattended. A slight miscalculation on the part of motorists can see these seemingly harmless defects lead to horrific accidents that sometime end in death or life-altering injuries.

It was then that Azlan, along with his biker friends decided to form Silaturrahim Brotherhood, a group, who frustrated with the failure of local authorities to address the menacing problem of potholes, took matters into their own hands by fixing damaged city roads themselves.

We use our own time and money, all to help reduce the risks faced by motorists. Currently we’re fixing potholes in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, Johor, Melaka and Penang. The road to hell is filled with good intentions as experienced by Azlan and his friends, who in the course of their goodwill, have gotten into tight spots with the authorities.

The funding required for the patching up works comes from my own pocket, but when I don’t have the money to do it, I will mark the pothole so vehicles can be warned from afar, giving them time to properly avoid it. A simple pothole he added, can be patched with a cold mix that cost around RM70 while a bigger one can cost them up to RM3500.
