Based on the EIA report in Dec 2015:

Cadangan Pembangunan Perumahan Di Lot 912, Mukim Rasah, Daerah Seremban, Negeri Sembilan Darul Khusus Environmental Impact Assessment
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
...
19. A rock outcrop (previously an ex-quarry) covering about 15% (12ha) is situated at the north eastern corner of the Project site. There will not be any construction at this rock outcrop as it will be left undisturbed.

Wonder how come the rock blasting allowed later? You help me I help you?

Anyway, Matrix said rock blasting schedule has been informed and signboard built, any damage will be decided in August if there any. They said the crack has been exist before blasting

Based on their presentation slide, only 3 unit of double storey bungalows (DSB) will be built there (Phase 6-1 unit GDV RM2m and Phase 7-2 unit GDV RM5m), date of construction: TBA

On the other hands, 46 unit DSB will be built in Hijayu Resort Villa (Phase 1-3), expected construction begin in year 2020.

By the way, based on fengshui only temple suitable for hill top not residential who need "backing"

Aiyo, this is clearly not follow what stated in EIA report.

Let see what Matrix talk about Ara Sendayan in EIA Report:

...

Project Components

The Project consists of residential, green areas, as well as public utilities and amenities and supporting infrastructure. The Project is dominated by public amenitieis and infrastructure (62.38%), followed by residential development (37.62%).

Three types of residential units are proposed namely bungalows, semidetached and terraces. The total number of housing unit at the Project site is about 1,284 units.

The green and open area covers a total of 21.57% (14.47 ha). The two retention ponds will be located at the south western and south part of the site.

The population of the Project when fully completed is projected to be about 6,500 assuming 5 persons per dwelling unit.



CONCLUSION
The EIA concludes that the benefits from the establishment of the Project far outweigh the negative impacts. With the proper implementation of the mitigation measures, the environmental impacts highlighted in this EIA can be greatly minimized.

This conclusion has been based on the following considerations: 
1)The establishment of the Project will create additional housing options for Seremban

2)The establishment the Project will bring significant positive socioeconomic impacts surrounding the Project site by generating new and greater business opportunities, which will promote in-migration by providing housing and new job opportunities.

3)The adverse environmental impacts generated during the construction and operation stage can be largely mitigated through proper design and best management practices.

Hope they walk the talk.

I not sure the affected party should get a copy of EIA to verify it, which authority approved Matrix's rock blasting?

Matrix is going to have their AGM at 10.30 in d'Tempat Country Club on 21/8/2019, the RK residents should demonstrate there let shareholders and reporters aware of it, btw I'll be there too as a shareholder.

Can gather outside the clubhouse, I suppose the road belong to public.

Ya lah MEMUSNAKAN should be MEMUSNAHKAN

Came back from AGM, no RK protester around, anyway the Matrix's door gift quite ok- got powerbank, RM50 food vouchers, 50% discount hotel stay in d'Sora, clutch bag.

Dying town? what a jokes!

With more and more residents moving in, new shops open in commercial area and new plants employed more people in TechValley, BSS is getting better each day.

Don't know about protesters warning stuff, but shareholders quite satisfied with the performance of Matrix, no a single question asked during AGM.

Questions only come after Chairman declared the meeting is adjourned, mostly want the Board to share some valued added information exclusive to the shareholders in the hall.

It need time for a township to grow and mature, got to bite the bullets for the time being, it not only applicable to BSS but many places in Malaysia too.

KUALA LUMPUR (Aug 29): Matrix Concepts Holdings Bhd's net profit for the first quarter ended June 30, 2019 rose 8.8% to RM54.55 million from RM50.15 million a year earlier, due mainly to significantly lower losses by Matrix Global Schools, and aided by higher other income.

Revenue for the period rose 8% to RM248.5 million from RM230.04 million previously, on stronger revenue recognition from the sale of residential and commercial properties at the group's Bandar Sri Sendayan (BSS) and Bandar Seri Impian (BSI) townships.

Earnings per share for the quarter was higher at 7.09 sen compared to 6.67 sen previously.

Matrix Concepts declared a first interim dividend of 3 sen per share, payable on Oct 9.

Matrix Global Schools need 1,000 students to break-even, currently there are only about 850 students in MGS, therefore Matrix sold 49% of its share to founder of Tenby International School earlier this year.

No use to scold Matrix in FB, appoint lawyer to sue the Company if sufficient evidences available.

Nice to see but the success of SMS will depend on number of shops and offices to be opened, Matrix needs to put in much more effort to attract new merchants.

Agreed with you the commercial activity is lacking in BSS, it got to do with not sufficient population to attract the merchant to operate there, why low population because lack of high value job opportunities around this area, all this got to do government.

More factories in Sendayan Techvalley at least do provide job opportunities for folks albeit not all are high pay.

Very disappointed when heard that the 400-bed hospital project delayed, otherwise doctors, nurses and other medical staff will help in rental or second hand market.

I think to attract a higher learning institutions something like UTAR size will boost up the rental market here look at what Bandar Sungai Long will tell.

Anyway, I still enjoy the facilities in d'Tempat Country Club very much, anyway just enjoy it no matter exclusive or not.

Got public schools, BSS have SJK ©, SJK (T) and SMK as well as SJK to be open in year 2020.

It take time for township to mature, even big boy like EcoWorld, their shop houses in Eco-Majestic also has low occupancy albeit connect direct with Lekas.
I believe same apply to Sime Darby's City of Elmina.

Anyway, I just shared what I read in Matrix's presentation slides, never expect you will feel upset about it.
