Anyone share my feelings that the Cheras Selatan /Balakong / BMC/ Sg Long is set to take off big time? There is the biggest Jusco outfit, C180 lifestyle commercial starting to be populated, Columbia Asia opening soon. High end residences between 1m-4m sprouting from Laville, Park 72, Twin Palms, Taming Mutiara, BSL5, and now the Tropicana boys Dijaya just announced 2 big acre high end GG developments in Sg Long and Balakong.  Sunway Group is rumoured to start new development next to Twin Palms. With Kajang exploding, this southern frontier bordering both old cheras and Kajang should be a hotspot in waiting...

It's a nice place for sure. I've been there a few times but was turned of by the extreme price increase for their latest launch. Up to about the middle of last year they were selling at 1m, but then increased to about 1.5m for the new launch. It's too expensive now for the location in my opinion.

But I would say among all the G&G projects that I have gone, Twin Palms is one of the best. I am not too sure about The Glades launched by Sime Darby at Putra Heights.

Laville and Eastpark72 does not have clubhouse and facility. Twin Palm is a true G&G community as they have those. Jade Hill is a better comparison to Twin Palm, feature for feature.

I stay in between these 4 developments and have visited all of them. Not to say Twin Palm is not good, it's better than Laville and Eastpark72 and has resort feel. But I finally chose Jade Hill.

Twin Palm negative: have to pay RM1 tol everytime need to go out (will be increased to RM1.30 "soon"), have to pass through "terowong" to get home and out (my wife and oldfolks don't like due to safety issue and fengshui), not so much gardens, and "smaller" clubhouse.

Good thing is, it is on very high ground, fresh air and cooling. Don't have to pass through small residential/factory roads to reach Twin Palm.

The best is to visit the place yourself and compare each of them. I nearly bought Twin Palms before visiting Jade Hill.
