Hi all,

I'm new here, and just recently put in my booking for a unit in 288.

Am looking forward to see the final product in 3 yrs. Glad to see a bunch of friendly ppl that could potentially be my neighbours.


Added on March 24, 2011, 8:36 amFound out that our TV system is the normal one and not one that can support Astro with a central main dish at the roof- this means if we want Astro, we have to install our own dish.

If all units install their own dishes, the 288's facade will look like those in a low cost apartment.

Although the sales rep mentioned that the dev will allot a specific spot for us to install the dish, I'm not buying that cuz the farther the dish is, the more you have to bear for the installation cost, no? yes?

welcome....and let's hope that you are right about us being friendly until 288 is completed and ready to move in tongue.gif
I was told Astro is centralised save for those using Astro Beyond ...but im hoping they would change this because in 3 years time  im sure most people would see the light and use beyond hehe

In the sales kit, it's mentioned as MATV (for normal terestrial) and not SMATV (for services like Astro).

i know..but i think if we i.e. the 288-ers get together and pressure KP perhaps they can do something about it because this is just an installation part and does not affetc the construction aspect of the 288....

oooh, lets. I like when the rakyat speaks up. hehehhe

Anyway, the installation cheap only ma. One dish at the roof, head end unit at the top most floor, then tarik RG6 cables to each unit. 576 nos only (288units x 2 nos ie for living and master). should be sap sap sui for KP lar - about rm100k?. imagine the profit margin they got from all the construction of st mary etc etc...

but this has to be done during construction stage so that the cables can be run through the common riser and concealed in the wall when it's running in the units.

Is there any strong word from the internal developer parties that mentioning about this???
Foundation not yet finish can increase price liao meh???So Scary man..haha brows.gif

No need to hear from developer lar - ask those buyers that recently made purchases.

If those of you bought your 1408 sf for RM480k, it is selling in the high regions of RM500k liao. so you already earn RM100k from the time you bought.

Happy tak?

Hi All, just received the reply from 288's FB with regard to the MATV issue. please see the following:-

Question: Can the MATV point to use as Astro Point? or need to install the Astro disk outside balcony?

Reply 288: "Yes, can. The MATV point can be used as Astro point, but not HD. No need install the Astro disk outside balcony, is centralize.

Any comments?

It's really strange that as a high-end contractor turned developer like KP would choose to use the term MATV instead of SMATV to denote satellite tv systems. I reckon they should've known better. But when I asked the sales ppl there, i was told by this guy Al that i have to install a dish on my own at a spot dictated by KP. Imagine that.

I think I would still write to KP for further clarifications. Cybertechmkteo wrote a pretty decent template to follow (good on your friend). In fact, I think we all should. Get something back formally in B&W from the folks of KP.

Also, I was at Cinta residence the other day. Saw an unsightly dish just outside a tenant's window for AstroByond. Shucks, KP should actually allow for this. In 3 yrs time, I reckon this would be a norm. We should pre-empt this.

My 2 sens worth.
