I agree that it does seem that developers are holding our balls. However this is only true in a sellers' market. Iskandar, KV and Penang property markets are "hot" especially in good locations. Balloting is a lot more transparent and fair method compared to overnight queuing or what some developers practice of allocating a % to internal, associates, own family, friends etc and under-counter bribes. I've heard that there were shop lots sold in Bkt Jalil for 2 plus million and under counter 1million!
