List any political party membership(s):
none
Do you live in West Vancouver? For how long?
Yes. Overall about 10 years. I immigrated in 2002 and, since then, West Vancouver has been my home. I had about 4 years’ absence due to continuing my education and learning more skills in California where I, of course, truly missed West Vancouver.
List municipal committee and/or civic group experience:
I have experience running a school, a classroom, teaching and project management. As a chemist, I have managed projects that are just about the size of a budget of the West Vancouver municipality.
Have you sought or received campaign contributions from a union and/or developer?
no
Do you support reducing the maximum allowable house size?
Yes. It is a reflection of greed, ugly and not the Canadian cultural manner. We should give back to the land as much as we can.
Should residents require permits to cut down trees on private property?
Definitely. I disagree with the practice of cutting trees
to have a better view. Destroy our beautiful nature to have a better view?!!!
It’s selfish.
Do you support a non-resident property tax levy?
Yes. There are, however, better ways to do this. I believe there should be a win-win situation involved in any investment in our city.
Is the present council effectively managing growth?
No. I don’t think they are protecting the cultural heritage of West Vancouver and in return, what are our residents gaining?
What are your priorities if elected?
Addressing high housing cost problem, supporting our children to be able to live and work here, addressing the traffic issues, creating a more vibrant city, attracting tourists.
