You are right, to my understanding many Indians and Malays that staying surrounding Puchong has moving out, paving ways for new development which attracts even more new and younger professionals and couples to grab a unit here. Do you know that in Selangor, Puchong was top search in Iproperty? Believe in stats and figures and you never goes wrong.

7 years ago, I used to stay in Puchong for one year and hate the traffic jam at LDP.

Now, i think it had improved a lot compare to years back. Still jam, but moving. Unlike, my reminisce with Puchong toll was, I will take a ciggy n still got plenty of time to chat with, if the Malay toll girl is sweet. Lol.

People are saying that Puchong is jam but the question is which part of KV is not jam during peak hours?

I can tell you my last week experience whereby I overnight in my friend place at Angkasa Condominium at Taman Connaught and during morning was intend to drive fm Connaught highway towards Federal before making ways to Shah Alam. To my amaze, I'm in truly shock stuck in the 4 lanes traffics of the highway which totally not moving, caught in middle of the connought highway without any options making u-turn or any alternate ways. It takes me 5 mins to move 100 metres and the journey which suppose to be less than 30 mins ended up 1 hours and 45 mins causing me late to my office. At the end, I realise how lucky I am staying in Puchong as the traffic at the other part of KV makes Puchong traffic like a smooth sailing.

Conclusion, although traffic in Puchong is heavy but it's moving and the jam is only at few spots such as Puchong Jaya and few in Pusat Bandar Puchong. For those saying traffic in Puchong is bad is either they are from inside the jungle or they need their brain check.

I am truly agreed with u. I guess those complaint or criticize puchong is jam are the one who never been to puchong or those who are anti-puchong

I FULLY AGREE with you bro.
I'm currently staying at Damai Perdana which is even deeper than Connaught/Alam Damai. I move out at 6.45am and reach office at Sungei Way at 8am. A 30 mins journey and it took me 1 hour and 15 mins to office. Dont even think about going back home at 6pm onwards until 8pm.

I feel that each person have its own definition of traffic jam. What level is really jam and what level is moveable ? To be, every where in Klang Valley have traffic jams at peak hours/rush hours. Its just that what is the level of traffic.

If the traffic have lots of cars but it is moveable, i'm totally ok with it. But the East West Link is NOT MOVEABLE at all. I'm looking forward to moving out from Cheras. Sorry to Cheras fans here.

I stayed in puchong since 18 years ++ ago... i still can remember there were nothing... not even IOI mall, my dad 1st bought 1st phase bandar puchong jaya DSL link house. It was like 105k that time, and people were complaining puchong is like a gangster town ,located in middle of jungle.

Since then it has developed into one of the most populated town in malaysia... indeed its the most populated with CN.
Puchong also has the most banks around after KL. Most of the banks are located within each other, few minutes drive. This is so easy that we can expect bank will never go wrong with their investment.

More people are moving out of puchong? I dont think so... What i can say now is puchong is for the middle upper class people.

A normal DSL of which im staying now is over 600k, which i dont think any fresh grade or normal working class could afford.

Jam ? KL Jam too, subang jam too, One U jam too, Mont Kiara jam too... which of this place property is not rocket high? The more jam the place is the more people are going and more business = more money = more valuable
If you want place without jam then go rawang bukit beruntung... no jam + cheap property...

Puchong will only get better... prices for property overall will continue to raise ... since when our malaysia property market price fall? Even during economy crisis the prices only stagnant .

My conclusion : Property will only get better... and its one of the best n safest investment compare to other investment. Thats why bank give loan to property and not share or any other investment...

Good luck in your investment...

The township planning for Puchong is very bad (compared to Putrajaya, Cyberjaya or Kajang), a complete road networking shd be constructed before allowing residential townships to be developed by private developer.
I hv stayed in Puchong for 14 yrs, I think Puchong traffic is getting worst than before, I forsee a rapid developments undergoing fr Bkt Jalil - Puchong - Cyberjaya, the population could be double in the next 20 yrs, in order to ease the traffic which is increasing every day now, at least 3 / 4 major highways needed to be constructed :-
1. KIDEX-SKIP (Intercharge to MEX)
2. 2nd LDP - Elevated
3. Subang-Puchong-Seri Kembangan linkage (cut through Ayer Hitam Forest Reserved)
4. Puchong - Bkt Jalil - Sg Besi (Elevated Highway)
5. Diamond Intercharge - Puncak Jalil - Mex, Puncak Jalil - Bdr Bukit Jalil
6. Expand the existing Jalan Puchong fr OKR (elevated would be perfect)

I hv 0% confident that the current gomen will deliver the above projects.

I have sold all my puchong props... and move out from puchong to KL city for better lifestyle...
cannot tahan wei with jam..
I purposely buy props at puchong as Pak Lah has planned to extend the LRT in 2006 and will be completed in 2009.. but was not happening.. however lucky there is another boost on last 2 years for LRT..

Specifically which part of Puchong props you sold ?

Move out from Puchong to KL city for better lifestyle ? Maybe someone else will say he would move out from KL city to Puchong for better lifestyle .....

Obviously the meaning of lifestyle varies from people to people. Maybe you want to enlighten us what lifestyle you gain in KL city ?

Bandar Punchong Jaya..

For me time management is important... near to city, near to LRT and less jam..

Ok agree that time saved in traveling would greatly improve lifestyle.

Comparing puchong with world-class city like KL....
what's the different between hotel and home?
i would prefer landed in puchong rather than high rise in kl.

Puchong Puchong why it called PUCHONG?????
Anyone...........

Awww... i just graduated from local university 2years ago, and working in cyberjaya now. I choosed to live in Puchong because it is near with cyberjaya. Moreover i need not to pay toll to CJ + NO JAM.
Besides, i think living in Puchong is better than living in equine, dengkil as i can get better lifestyle that i want here. (mall, cinema, tesco, gym, future The Wharf Mall, Millennium Mall) Moreover it is going to develop a diamond exchange to Puchong Perdana and of course FUTURE LRT.

I plan to grab my first property in puchong, because I think puchong property is affordable for middle lower class people like me.
Of course, the location is not as strategic as OKR, but having a future LRT, I believe Puchong is having a bright future.

Just my 2cent opinion:)

This one was explained to me by someone in this forum.

Puchong is a malay word for a type of bird.

OIC ..thks for the explanation..i google 'burung puchong' and it's beautiful bird indeed.

use bike !! Jammed problem solved !! haha

Did anyone of you estimate that the so call future LRT line will take how long to go KLCC Tower from puchong? can we really drag people who working in KL to stay in puchong rather than others places?

Thats why in early stages, there were Jln Merak, Jln Helang, Jln Bangau, Jln Merpati, Jln Tiong... and it goes on.... guess all the birds are in Puchong... its a jungle out here!
