Mr Raymond Lee briefed the meeting on the status of this matter. A meeting with the PTG was held on 19 Feb. During the meeting, PTG informed that there are 2 options leading to the subdivision of titles.
First option, through surrender and realieanation of titles directly to respective house owners.
Second option, by way of subdivision of titles whereby titles will be registered in the developer’s name and subsequently re-transfer to the house owners.

The first option may result in additional premium imposed on the houseowners. The committee agreed that a letter will be forwarded to PTG to request for a formal meeting involving all the relevant parties to deliberate on the processes involved. Mr Raymond Lee will volunteer to prepare a draft for our chairman’s confirmation.

Mr Raymond Lee has also informed that Ambank Bhd will cooperate on the surrendering of master titles subject to proper request from the liquidators and their lawyer’s advice. Mr Raymond Lee also emphasized that for the whole process to be implemented successfully, our ADUN’s constant involvement will be necessary.

Security:

Generally, the patrolling has improved. Weekly reports have been punctually submitted to Chairman. Hilir 3 residents have also commented that the guards have been punctual.

Complaints about the guards spending too much time inside the cabin was highlighted. This could lead to them overlooking any incident that may occur in the Taman. They should be spending more time monitoring the vehicle movement in/out of the Taman. To bring this matter up with KOP bosses.

Propose to look for an alternative site where guards can monitors the car movement more effectively; probably opposite the current guardhouse. To pursue this further when TNB has completed constructing their wall and subject to budget availability.

Pasar Tani days – residents of H3 have complained of difficulty of getting back to their houses due to traffic congestion. There is a request to have the barrier gates opened for 1 to 2 hours with a guard monitoring the area. To study this further and if okay, to get a proper schedule drawn up for opening H4 gate only.

Need to appoint a Committee member to oversee the security issues, to replace Mr Raymond Kok.

Collection of Fees:

Mr Tai briefed that collection was RM52,450 todate. Target is RM58,000 or 80%. Most of those still outstanding are from those residents who have already made their first payment. New payments have been encouraging.

Committee recorded its thanks to Mr Tai for his initiative and dedication in this matter. Committee to be more supportive of his actions to improve collection. The gotong royong will probably help improve collection.

Hi Faizal,

Thank you for your initiative to further emphasize the urgency on the matter at hand and seek for immediate action from MPAJ. I wish to commend your leadership and managed to build up a good rapports with MPAJ , Tuan Haji Meor and YB Iskandar. I believe we should give MPAJ another chance to resolve the issues at hand, but then we should strategise our approach again.

To get MPAJ to place priority on our issues, we should prepare a dialogue session again with MPAJ, Tuan Hj Meor and YB Iskandar with the presence of the press. The approach is to highlight the issues for actions but not to criticise them for inaction in the past. This may build up a more friendly publicity.

I will volunteer to prepare a draft memorandum to YDP cc to KSN, Tuan Hj Meor and YB for the committee’s comment. Our Memo shall be specific to MPAJ issues only so as to avoid them confusing our issues.

Raymond Lee

Dear En Faizal,

I think it sis an excellent idea to push the MPAJ and the state govt officials into taking us seriously. However, if I may add, they have already ignored us on numerous occasions where we have tried to be diplomatic and followed correct channels.

I think it is time we took a more aggressive stance with these people.

I strongly believe it is time to bring the media in – to really show them what the Taman’s condition is like with the bad drainage and overgrown weeds at abandoned sites, monsoon drains near the IWK… and all that. PLUS, we can also use the same platform to highlight our title problems. It has been going on far too long.

If the officials think they have issues, then we must make our issues and problems BIGGER and PROMINENT so they will start paying attention to us.

Another think to consider is that the Selangor govt is now assessing its performance since the last election. Good time to push for some proactive action.

Do let me know if you need assistance with the media – in my dept, we deal with them all the time! Can even get Malaysiakini if you want.

Thank You and Warm Regards
Thavamalar Muniandy

Hi Faizal,

I strongly support Malar’s suggestion, MPAJ has made all sorts of promises
which they are yet to keep. THE KETUA SETIAUSAHA NEGARA, initially did a
great job, but now
their concentration is focused at DBKL. Let’s get the press in, remember
they will only react if our voice is louder then others.

We have heard several comments from residents both in Hilir 3 and other, we
need to highlight this to the YB’s who have also become defunct. We are
also tax payers and MPAJ
must be seen to take us seriously, rather then pushing us around.

Thanks and regards,

Haredas SUPPIAH

Dear All committee members and block reps,

Salam and Happy Morning!

As all the residents are aware that we had send out a proposal last year to MPAJ and stated our request to upgrade our taman issues such as security, boom gates, road humps at Hilir 3, cutting of big trees issues, unhealthy condition of drainage system, extra lighting at dark area during night time and etc.

Unfortunately, till up to date, nothing had been done though the MPAJ counselors, directors, and staff had come to our are more than 3 times for site visits.

Therefore, I am strongly believes that this is the time for us to do some firm action to protect the interest of our residents and our taman as we are also TAX PAYERS.

As per the latest information received from Mr.Hasrolnizam bin Shaari, the Head of Engineering Department, he seems had give up due to negative impact of budget. He is fully aware of all the promises he had promised us regarding our issues brought up to MPAJ. He did mention that he had talked and convey the message accordingly to Yand Di Pertua of MPAJ and the feedback is negative due to lack of budgets. Their budgets are more concentrate to other matter such as the Bukit Antarabangsa land slide problem. THE ISSUE ARISE HERE IS WHAT IS THE BENEFIT WE GET AS THE RESIDENTS OF TAMAN SRI ANGSANA HILIR ? WE ARE ALSO AMONG THE TAX PAYERS UNDER MPAJ AND WE HAVE THE RIGHT TO GET BENEFITS OF IT! . As to update the committee and the block reps, MPAJ tax collection is one of the highest in Selangor with 90% achievement of tax collection.

Therefore if we are still waiting for MPAJ to response to our problem, I believe that we will be disappointed of it. We as the committee had to revamp our strategies in order to ensure that our taman is safe and comfort for us to stay.

Hence, I would like to suggest the following in order to overcome the issue:
1. We write a cover letter to Yang Dipertua MPAJ and state clearly the chronology of events we had gone through with their personnel and what had been promises and C.C. COPY THE LETTER TO THE KETUA SETIAUSAHA NEGARA since MPAJ is taken as an adoption department (anak angkat) directly under supervision of KSN due massive problems in MPAJ for past years.

At the same time, in the letter we include the current scenario of HILIR 3 major problems-the busy and heavy traffic flow of the road that brings uncomforted scenario to the residents at Hilir 3. Based on the collection now, to balance the boom gate implementation for the comfort of the residents of Hilir 4, 5 and 6, WE NEED TO ALLOCATE AT LEAST RM 1,OOO BUDGET TO UPGRADE THE CURRENT HUMPS AT HILIR 3, MEANS THAT AT LEAST WE NEED 4 HUMPS AT HILIR 3- IT WILL REDUCE 50% OF THE RESIDENTS PROBLEM AT HILIR 3.

Then, we clearly mentioned in the letter that the ASSOCIATION, for the BENEFITS of the RESIDENTS as tax payer too, WITH THE RESIDENTS OWN COST upgrade the expenses of the hump for the safety of the residents, pedestrians and etc that using the road.

I believe that this will wake them up and in future will help us a lot in order to get other things to be done.

I would like to seek comments and suggestion to better reflects the above matter and kindly response ASAP since we need to act fast for the interest of our residents.

Thank you
