Who will win in the election, is nothing to do with the development there.

That last time story, is more involved with land banks and speculation.

But once the project is announced, they cant change like that lo.

The recent price in johor has hike up to nearly or even higher than klang valley now.

I went to Penang last two weeks, the price there is mad but the quality... is like shit.....

Fly back next week, we gonna have another pro-tem meeting in sunway.

thank you.

New rules for gated communities

KLANG: New guidelines for gated communities in the municipality have been drafted and are awaiting approval from the state before it can be implemented this year.

The rules were jointly drafted by the Klang Municipal Council (MPK), the Housing and Local Government Ministry and the state.

“MPK urges all gated community residents to immediately apply for licences (after the new guidelines are implemented) to set up a gated community or the council will take action accordingly,” said councillor Lim Lip Suan.

It’s estimated that only 15 out of 146 gated communities in Klang comply with current state laws to regulate them.The majority have been set up illegally.

Lim said the new guidelines are meant to cover some “grey areas” in existing rules and the residents must continue to follow old guidelines.

Among the new rules are that access roads can only be closed between 12am and 6am and security guards should have toilet facilities.

Lim said the licence to form a gated community will only last for three years and the community will have to renew it after it expires.

The other guidelines are:

1 Any construction on state land requires a permit from the local council.

2 The local council will decide the maximum or minimum number of houses to form a gated community for regulatory purposes.

3 The gated community must not have public facilities such as schools, places of worship, community halls, stadiums and etc within its area.

4 Automated access cards are not allowed.

5 Vehicles will be allowed to enter or leave the area freely.

6 Restrictions must not be imposed on residents who do not join a gated community.

7 Developers or residents’ associations must apply for a permit to enact a gated community.

8 Must have approval of at least 85% of residents living in the proposed area.

Also at the press conference were MPK councillors Winston Phua, Lee Sack Choon and Tan Heng Kim.

Guidelines on gated communities soon

SUBANG JAYA: Residents’ associations (RAs) in Selangor will be invited to give their input on gated and guarded (G&G) communities at a seminar being organised soon by the state.

The event, to be hosted by the Selangor Land and Mines Office (PTG), will be held next week and will seek to draw up guidelines for G&G communities.

“Once the guidelines are drawn up, they will be brought to the state executive council to be endorsed,” said state executive councillor Teresa Kok.

She said there have been many complaints against RAs which have chosen to employ makeshift G&G infrastructure around their neighbourhood.

Among the security measures taken by residents include installing guardhouses, boom gates and barriers made of metal barrels and barbed wire.

Some RAs have permanently blocked roads which prevent emergency services like police cars or fire engines from passing through.

Kok gave an example of the Taman Puchong Hartamas development where a guardhouse erected by the developer had to be torn down by the local council last year.

The structure was deemed illegal as it did not obtain a Temporary Occupancy Licence (TOL) from the Subang Jaya Municipal Council (MPSJ).

“Since the guardhouse was demolished, the area experienced an increase in crime, resulting in a wave of about eight break-ins,” she said.

Residents were also left fuming when Petaling Jaya City Council (MBPJ) officers tore down a security barrier in their neighbourhood along Jalan SS20/17 last January.

Residents claimed the barriers brought down crime after they were installed.

Previously, they were the victims of break-ins, snatch thefts and even assaulted with cleavers.

The G&G concept has been a contentious issue in the state, sometimes pitting neighbours against each other as they disagree on fencing up their community.

Some RAs or Rukun Tetangga (RT) see barricades as a safety feature.

Those who disagree are usually concerned with the closure of roads which may inconvenience them and hinder emergency services.

The state government issued its own guidelines in 2010 which proposed that at least 80% of residents must support the G&G concept before implementation.

This differs from a Federal government guideline which suggests only a 51% support.

“I believe this has to be decided on a case-by-case basis. It should be allowed if there are no objections (from surrounding residents),” Kok added.

If I have a say, I rather put the money in guardhouse as that is only one cost time.
Whilst, engaging more patrolling will just incur more cost.

I believe there is a rare chance for a kindi to operate at this rental rate.

Furthermore, they need the neighbourhood consent as well.

The problem is like this, the local council will send a letter to your house (ie: canting) and asking you to respond within 7 days. But.... normally people won't go to their new house very often during VP period....

However, we can detect whether they are keep on delaying. As there should be respond before 3 months from now.

I suggest.....

we shall make an official appointment to meet I&P.

We need someone from pentas 3 ....

Good day NHBA,

We are a group of buyer who bought land property units in Alam Impian, Shah Alam (I&P Project). The local council for the project is MBSA. For your information, the project is still undergoing.

We would like enquiry:-

1. Can we establish a RA at this current moment?
2. What is the procedure to establish a RA?
3. Our development is only allow for Guarded community. We would like to form gated (fencing) for the whole area, could you help us how to get it legally done?

Thank you.

Alex Chow
