Why go into Bukit Damansara? The reason why some places remain as 'atas' is because the difficulty on public access, hence the privacy and exclusivity. Other place like Tropicana Golf Club, Sieramas, Country Heights are good example of exclusivity. People in these place do not need public access, we have private transportation. Providing with public transports mean anyone can come anytime.

My bad for using the wrong pronoun that trigger you so badly. I should have use they instead because, YES I'm not belong to the rich. I'm just a poor salary earner.

Anyway, things for you to think about. There are different categories of property market depending on the target group. I do not deny that good infrastructure leading to the increase of property value. But that only happen to property where the target market group is the working class, where 'convenience' is the priority. However, place like Bukit Damansara, Tropicana, Sieramas, and Country Height have different target market group. These places are more inclining to the ultra rich, e.g. CEOs, politicians, etc. For the mindset of this group, exclusivity and privacy are deem valuable as they do not want much public nuisance. Good infrastructure leading to high traffic volume which turn into lesser privacy. Take a very good example, the MRT line supposing to have a station near to Tropicana, but residents are making complaint and objection to the idea. And I believe the station has been canceled or revised to a better place.

And also YES. The real we has multiple properties for investment. But they always come down to a place, the only place that they will call it their forever home.

Think it deeper. I might be wrong because I'm not WE that earn that much of cash.

Hopefully so. Recently there have been so many new developments trying to piece through Bukit Damansara area. Starting with the Aira Residence, then we have The Cedar and a few more upcoming developments that tend to sell by the upmarket name of 'Damansara Height'. All thanks to Pavilion Damansara that bringing in the crowd.

The residents have constantly make objection to DBKL because the area was long gazetted as bungalow residential only. There is a strict height limit where your building should not block the view of the neighbours. Too bad, corruption happen and some developments have successfully pierce through the laws that suppose to protect the interest of the residents. Once one is allowed, the rest will make it as a case reference in the appeal with DBKL. I know many of the residents have plan to move out from Bukit Damansara to a less congested area. Sooner or later, this prestigous address will be normalised.

I think what Hirano trying to express is the rich are not welcoming the M40 into their area. They prefer having their own sweat heaven without needing to share space with the poor. It is a drop of standard if you dine and shop at the same place as the poor. I think that's the mentality.

Thanks for the info. At least not actually inside the Damansara ring. Else, I can imagine Plaza Damansara full of Bangladeshi, Ah Beng Ah Lian, and rempit kids. The Republic is a good place to hang out.

Is not me talking about Bukit Damansara in my argument? Also, have you really been to Bukit Tunku and Bukit Damansara? There are no public transit as far as I know.

So in your opinion Tropicana is ‘helang’ or not ‘helang’? Your first sentence says it is pretentious ‘helang’, then your last sentence are making it in the same categories as Bukit Damansara.

Anyway, go check out where does Marina Mahathir and Ismail Sabri is living. Tell me if Tropicana is pretentious.

Also, Bangsar is one good example of what happen to a place when you bring in public transit, congested and mixed up. Bangsar area has two prominent addresses, Bukit Bandaraya and Bukit Pantai, which are very likely get infested by these public transit soon. Hence most residents have left and their units are being converted to commercial use.

I’m not going to put you more information, as I can see from your argument that you are an ignorant kid. My sincere apology if my sentences do hurt your ego somewhere. All the best.
