Unfortunately mine is phase 2 but the timeline only left 14months.

We are all in the same boat whether phase 1 or 2. I think the project will be delivered all at the same time. But right now, only Block #3 is progressing the fastest and my Block #2 is about 3 floors slower than Block #1. Still I am quite confident that the project will be delivered on time ... that is, if there is no further interruption from the authorities or squatters.

NB: The developer called my unit at Block #2 as Block B3 - I don't know what the developer called the other blocks. Anyone can enlighten me?

Block 1 - B1
Block 2 - B3
Block 3 - B5
Block 4 - B7
Block 5 - B9

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I only know my block is known as Block B5 a.k.a Block 3

Thanks! Your block is the fastest in progress. Do you know why? Is it because the developer uses different contractors for different blocks?

My block is block 4 ,B7. As i know now is just build till level 2, haha.

If memory serves me right, a forumer once mentioned that Peter have 1 block per contractor ratio. So yeah it might have something to do with contractors because different contractors have different workplan and etc? I might be wrong, but I'm just speculating without any proof

Hi,
any new picture?

I went to eat KFC today and took 3 pictures from the petrol station. Didn't see any workers?? Possibly it was lunchtime.



Attached thumbnail(s)

Thanks. If we compare the photos taken on 29/10 & 10/12 (in a duration of 42 days or 6 weeks) Block B1 has progressed fr 6th to 9th, Block B3 fr 4th to 7th, & Block B5 fr 8th to 11th floor. The developer needs to accelerate the construction or it will be tough although still possible to complete on time (at least for phase 1). Hopefully, they don't sacrifice quality for speed.

dont forget that the final approval will take 3-6months after completion of construction.

Let us do some speculations and maths (maybe over simplified):
Each block have 17 floors, and Block B1 is at 9th floor, Block B3 at 7th floor and Block B5 at 11th floor. If the current speed is about 2 floors every month and remains constant, then the slower Block B3 should complete construction of the remaining 10 floors within 5 months ie by end May 2012. If you allow 2 weeks each for Chinese New Year and Hari Raya holidays, 2 weeks for raining seasons, 2 months for the remaining internal work (such as elevator, plastering, wiring, plumbing, painting and other M&E), we will still have 4 months to spare for CF inspection up to end Dec 2012. If you look at the pictures closely you may notice that a few internal walls were already plastered. Some work such as landscaping, road access, guard house, surau, etc can be done simultaneously. Barely enough time, but Phase 1 should be deliverable by end December 2012 or January 2013 - fingers crossed.

I daren't speculate on Blocks B5 & B7 - the developer will need to speed up for these 2 blocks if all are to deliver around the same time. The squatters really screwed up the momentum.

phase 1 is only touch and go. normally the approval authority will want all blocks completed and VP at the same time. unless it is 2 different project like 222 and 288. but 1120 is only 1 project. and 2 months for the remaining internal work is only sufficient for shoddy work. all units comes with tiles, phase comes with shower screen aircond piping...

and approval?? water, elec, CF, town council???

so all these block has 17 floor altogether?

18 storey

1st Oops... I mean I daren't speculate on Blocks B7 and B9.

2nd Oops, my mistake. My unit was at the top floor Bx-17-xx and I thought that it was only 17 floors high.

‘RM99,000 a unit is not low cost housing’
G Vinod
| December 12, 2011

Buyers of the stalled housing project in PJS 1 say some of them earn only RM1,000 a month and the Selangor government's offer is beyond their reach.

PETALING JAYA: Buyers of the stalled Block E low cost flat units in PJS 1 are livid over Selangor state government’s offer of affordable housing units at a discounted price of RM99,000.

In a meeting with over 200 buyers on Saturday, Selangor mentri besar Abdul Khalid Ibrahim gave the following options to the 276 buyers :

two affordable housing project would be started, at the land near Taman Kanagapuram and near the longhouses, with the units being sold to the Block E buyers at RM99,000, from the original price of RM160,000.

free Projek Perumahan Rakyat Termiskin (PPR) flat at Lembah Subang 2 for the buyers and a cash payment of RM20,000 once all units of the affordable housing project are sold.

buyers can choose any PPR flat units in Selangor for free and a cash payment of RM13,000 once all units of the affordable housing project are sold off.

However, Block E residents action committee chairman M Sugumaran said some of the residents were furious saying they would not be able to purchase a house worth RM 99,000.

“Most of them are low income earners who get below RM1,000 a month. How could they possibly afford a house worth RM99,000?” asked Sugumaran.

If the project continues as planned, Sugumaran said the affordable housing units would only attract property investors who has the means to purchase the units.

“And we, who had lived here for three generations, would be driven out from the place we were born and bred,” he said.

He also said that many were also unhappy over the free Lembah Subang PPR flat offer, saying it was the same thing that they had fought against over the years.

“If we wanted the flats, we would have taken it years ago when the offer was made when our squatter houses were demolished years ago,” said Sugumaran.

Sugumaran said the MB should not be too proud of his free PPR flat offer, saying that he could make such pledge as no one wanted to stay in a PPR flat.

“Nobody wants to buy PPR flats. That’s why he can give it for free as even in Lembah Subang, there are many vacant units.

“And by dishing out the cash payments only after the affordable housing units are sold, they seem to forget that we are the victims here,” said Sugumaran.

Stalled project

The 276 buyers, formerly squatter residents, found themselves left in the doldrums when developer Peter Brickworks Sdn Bhd reneged on its promise in 2003 to build low cost flats for them.

The residents had paid deposit for the units and some are still paying instalment for the project which has stalled for the past eight years.

Some of the residents are living in Lembah Subang and about 40 families are living in longhouses erected by the developer at PJS 1.

Threatened with eviction, Khalid stepped in and promised the residents in June that the state itself would build their homes.

Sugumaran said that Khalid also failed to address their woes with the bank, who had pressed many of the residents to pay up their outstanding interest and instalments for Block E.

“And what about liquidated and ascertained damages (LAD)? Khalid did not address it in the meeting,” he said.

LAD is a clause that compels a developer to provide remedy to house buyers when a certain project is delayed or stalled.

Two weeks to decide

When contacted, Petaling Jaya City Hall councillor, Latheefa Koya dismissed the argument that it was bad offer and claimed many residents were keen to consider the free PPR flat offer.

“About 150 of them who are already living in Lembah Subang are considering the offer. Just the remaining balance who are still iving in PJS 1 are still sceptical about it,” said Latheefa who was present at the meeting.

She said the flats, although worth RM35,000, can fetch up to RM70,000 if they sell it later on.

Latheefa, who is also PKR supreme council member, said Khalid had never forced the offer down the residents’ throats and gave the buyers two weeks to decide on it.

“He told the residents that he will revert to building the RM35,000 worth of housing as per their contract with the developer at PJS 1 should they collectively disagree on the proposal,” said Latheefa, who added that Khalid had promised to resolve their payment issues with the bank.

Thanks for highlighting this news but you better be careful as someone may place a hex on you (refer to post #315) ... I am still trembling, ha ha

Just ignore him. He's like that since this thread started. Everyone has their ways of expressing their frustration. You can only hope you don't get such neighbors in the future, at least not in the same floor....
