...and you regret is because? 

Yes, definitely we can get fencing done with RA, through MBSA (or some other bodies, I'm not very sure, we are currently looking into this) but that would be from the residents effort and not much from the developer. That's what I believe SD want, built houses, make a lot of money and leave the rest to the residents. This process takes time, in the meantime, residents have sleepless nights, worrying that some people might try to get in the house through the roofs. Call me pessimist but that's what I think .

I read somewhere that some developer already get the buyers to sign forms to agree to have their area to be gated even during sales. How come SD didn't come up with that? Oh...even without that, their houses are selling like goreng pisang, no wonder la

And yes, DARA is relatively new and has done a lot. It may take a long time to have a strong RA. BTW, I will try to talk to DARA AJK about including new owners. Last time, I went direct to one of them to get myself registered.

I'm very much in favor what you are proposing. IF we have enough Residents that are 'Gung-Ho' for it...we can arrange for a single vendor that can cater for each of the phase. Need not necessarily be gated - If we have a good security phase plan, it can be done without perimeter fencing as well.....

I have seen in many other residential areas with tight security even without perimeter fencing. A boom barrier gate for each lanes + constant security patrolling on bikes and foot rangers will in a way be more effective as compared to fencing up the whole phase. CCTV facilities for backlanes with motion detectors will work well too...

Money is of course always an obstacle BUT quoting on what you mentioned "with a strong RA this wont be an issue"!!! I wouldn't mind paying RM300 as a one off payment to get a decent security layer system to be executed in my phase if there's strong support. Add another RM100-RM200 monthly for guards & patrols - you have all the right measures instilled to secure your housing area.

Which phase were you from again?

Most forumers here r owners of the later phases, none from the right side of the roundabout, serista lestaria verdania opulenia

Owh ok...

Me FL...

I like your optimism . Keep it up. Love to have more neighbours like you. But a reminder, DA is famous for flipper/speculators who only buy and keep before properties fetching certain price. I believe they don't care about security in the neighbourhood. My phase got 162 units. 8 months after VP, only 1/3 is being occupied.

Good Idea     

Tell you guys what....I'll try linking the LYN's DA thread to the DARA FB Page so that we can get more of our felo' DA residents to join n the fruitful discussion we are having here...

What say you guys? 

DONE !!!

Denal Alam Residents' Association FB Page

You forgot the R!!!!!! 

I will be signing my spa for aster grove tomorrow. Hopefully, I made the right choice choosing denai alam. Anyway, I am delighted to see DA residents cooperating to make it a safer environment. In two years time, I hope to join you guys as neighbours. I believe if we have more owners in our phase, we can easily form a strong and effective RA. Therefore, we can work towards hiring our own guards, get together for makan makan, get to know each other.
Btw. I was at Alam impian, apparently I saw them started to fence up their phases. Apparently, started by their RA. If they can do it, why can't DA do it.

Added on June 13, 2012, 10:40 pmSince, more DA purchasers are coming on board. We can start a roll call here.

Once got RA (registered with ROS), can write to MBSA to ask for permission to do fencing.

MBSA will send letters to all affected resident to poll. If got > 80% yes, then can go ahead.

Funding and security? On your own....but DA people all got deep pockets, so no prob.

We try to do this in Bukit Subang (your lesser neighbours  ) few years ago but didn't proceed because our pockets not deep enough.....

Fencing will give you better security, but you still cannot stop people from coming in, since it is still public place.
Can control only.

Nearest example is TTDI Jaya few km away. They did their own fencing last year, after many years of suffering.

From experience, first two years will always have problems. Better keep lots of lights on at night, and invest in an alarm with a telephone callback service.

Sounds like a good idea...best to refer back to the moderator on this so that we can vie for some options to see how we can maintain this thread with a new in-charge since the initial TS is no more active.

I shall buzz the moderator on this...
