If there are binding tenancy agreement in place, then you can straight away go to the nearest police station with your tenancy agreement to lodge a police report against the tenant for defaulting 4 months of rental payment and tell them you wanted to exercise your rights in clause with the tenancy agreement. Standard tenancy agreement would covers you to eradicate the tenant by giving certain period of notice. If the tenant fails to respond within the serve notice period, then you can get the help of the police to supervise your action in removing the tenant and all its contents if necessarily.

Another person talking crap and giving bad advice it's been noted many times, your course of action will not amount to anything because the police will not get involved period!

Also you cannot eradicate a tenant... it's illegal to eradicate a person! doh.gif

Always the right step it to engage the services of a good lawyer. Do not take the law into your own hands.

Police will not get involved in such cases; enforcement of contracts is not under their purview.

Did you terminate your own meter so your tenant can re-apply?

First the teenant said give him 2 week time to apply new meter n i said ok lo but after that i call him he said no time go to apply cos busy,so i wanna cut the electricity cos agreement said he apply himself n ask my fren cos he know little about law but he said it is illegal.

Firstly as an owner you have rights, have you taken steps to protect those rights, rental agreement stamped by a commissioner of oaths? The normal stamp duty is around RM20.00 plus some misc. extras.

Secondly you should have made arrangements to cut the meter ASAP in keeping with the agreement instead of allowing the tenant to continue.

Third your friend is right the law in Malaysia is pro-tenant.

Often the legal option is to go with "Distress Act 1951 (Revised 1981)"

EDIT: Please consult a qualified lawyer, my post does not constitute legal advice sweat.gif
