I also experience the same thing. I purchased my house from a Chinese almost 4 years ago. I am wondering whether or not I have the STRATA title with me. However I called my lawyer which handles my other properties to seek an advice. He told me a BUMI lot in only applicable if the developer sells it to a bumi. If the developer sells it to a non-bumi and then the non-bumi sells it to a bumi, it IS NOT considered a bumi unit since the 7% discount has never been claimed nor given to anyone. It does make sense doesn't it?

Blame the govt policy, be it federal or state, NOT the thread. This thread is merely discussing what has been implemented. Don't like it, go and lobby the state legislative assembly. Until then we'll only discuss what is already implemented
