Again it is kind of ridiculous hearing exercise again. received one on 6/1/14 asked to attend on 8/1 12 noon.have meeting at 11am on 8/1/14 .How to go we are all working peoplelah  so no go eventually ... IF DBKL is sincere should give sufficient notice and conduct it at week ends..my other two appeal letters all sent on time but until now not received anything from DBKL on the hearing date yet...so should i blame post slow or what said you DBKL..im sure there are many people here facing same problem like me...

All notices to attend the public hearing should have been received by or before Jan 6 2014.

If you or anyone has not received a notice to attend the public hearing after submitting your objection before or on the deadline last year, please contact the DBKl JPPH:

Some will enjoy a decrease instead.

Assessment Rate/Cukai Pintu = Annual Value X Assessment Rate Percentage

Assessment Rate Percentage is determined by type and location of property.

There are those whose properties increase in annual value by around 30-50%.

The Assessment Rate Percentage has decreased from 30-50%.

For example, a medium cost apartment in Kepong (real world example):

Old Annual Value = RM9,000
Old Assessment Rate = 6%
Old Amount of Assessment Rate paid = RM9,000 X 6% = RM540

New Annual Value = RM12,000
New Assessment Rate = 4%
New Amount of Assessment Rate paid = RM12,000 X 4% = RM480

As you can see, in cases like this, the owner pays less than previous years.

Thank you for taking time to explain to me!    I must now go check if I benefit from this revised scheme!

If you are an owner occupying your own property, you can ask for even further reduction under a special incentive scheme.

Retirees, OKUs/the disabled and owners who occupy their own property are eligible for these reductions.

You can get the form at a DBKL Payment Counter.

boss, you ask him for wat.
you should know better lah.

for commies and/or resi, you can use a separate form to apply for reduction for non-tenanted buildings.
this can be done vide submittals of utilities bills for 3 months to show prove of low/non usage. this is to proof that there's no tenant or usage of the property.
the same can be applied for vacant land.
other than that, there's a separate form for application for own stay, retirees or handicapped personnels.
rather than advising you guys to go to dbkl and get the form, a more sensible approach would be to attached the form here for you guys to download and submit instantly. the form can be photocopied.

a person or company (especially if one's paid or commissioned to undertake it), should deliver results and states what he/she knows. not just stating the obvious and repeating 'standard common knowledge'.
the very first batch of hearing started on 8th January 2013.
hearing is classified by development or taman.
once the development or taman is called out, all owners go in together to state their case.
give justification and if sensible, prices may come down.

if nobody turn out deemed accepted!   

i hope forummers learn from this quote rather than learning some unuseful run of the mill answers.

Ikut taksiran lama for now.
