Checking in after a long while, Jagalat bro you are doing a fantastic job in monitoring Ekocheras's progress! Thumbs up for you!

what reasons make the construction delay?? sales not good? everyday raining??

Ekovest so big and wanna do Bdr Malaysia.. shall delivery on time....if not, im suffering on Jalan Cheras everyday.

It has been observed back in early 2014, it was observed that the progress also slow but still crawls bit by bit.
So today what can been seen is the sikit sikit lama jadi rakit....

Jalan Cheras is always jam from my past 35+ years of observation. No part is safe from jam. Maybe there was a new highway and brought a relief but a few years later jam adds up.
You may also verify with other long timers in Cheras.

Instead of waiting for EKC to vp, the MRT will come to bring some relief in about 4 months time. Again the jam will be predicted to repeat a few years(if not months) down the road.

I experienced deveoper. To eager to launch but last min changed their masterplan.

That's a main reason for the delay....

Thx... It's glad to read your post here, after "returning" from BSS forum....

I incline to second that for now.
It has other land at EkoRiver and the future huge developments there also. If this EKC debut mixed project didn't pay LAD, then their reputation is tarnished. It will impact their future projects along EkoRiver and BM.

As long as they stay in property business, LAD should be there (unless they chip off the property segment by selling land and becoming just the main con).

Anyway, need to monitor their announcement from time to time...

Yeah... BSS is done man, already collected keys last week! Hopefully we get to collect keys from EkoCheras sooner!

Note sure if you had join the chat group...
Haha....
For me, don't mind if it is late as long as there's LAD...

Take ur time man....long way to go...wait la..all ekc buyers are happy.

No worries bro, I am DDWWBBB on EKC.

Just sharing....


Claiming Damages for Late Delivery of Vacant Possession of
Private Houses in Malaysia: Legal Issues and Challenges

One of the main duties of the housing developer under the statutory sale and purchase agreement is to
complete the construction of the house on time. Under the Malaysian housing law, the period of completion
and handling over vacant possession for landed property is 24 months and for sub-divided building is 36
months. However in practice, very rare buyers get the keys to their houses on time. According to clause
20(2) of Schedule G of the Housing Development (Control and Licensing) Act 1966, the buyer is entitled to
claim for Liquidated Ascertained Damages (LAD) for the delay in completion. It is a statutory remedy to
compensate the buyer for the failure of the developer to fulfill his obligation under the agreement to hand
over vacant possession on a specific date. The LAD should be calculated from day to day at the rate of 10%
per annum of the purchase price. However claiming the LAD is not as simple as it supposed to be since
most of the time the developer refuses to pay the LAD for various reasons. Thus a claim for LAD needs to
be filed in the court or the Tribunal for Homebuyer Claims. Nonetheless winning the case does not
guarantee that the buyer will receive the compensation.
