Damansara Utama folks running out of patience

PETALING JAYA: Damansara Utama Residents and Owners Association president Rajesh Patel said residents were losing patience.

He said they had been  waiting for the   right turn from the Taman Tun Dr Ismail (TTDI)  interchange  to Damansara Utama for too  long.

He said they  were sick and tired of having to take  lengthy detours to get  home, as a result of its closure.

"It has been four months. We want the right turn to be opened immediately after Raya. We want  sound barriers to be put up on the flyover. We are also requesting that   the hoarding be replaced and the trees replanted."

He said the loss of the trees and the removal of  sound barriers had compounded  noise and dust woes for houses in Jalan 21/44.  Read more ........

MRT Corp to face legal action

Cause for concern: MRT Corp barricades have been put up along the Pinggir Zaaba road in Taman Tun Dr Ismail.

KUALA LUMPUR: Residents of Pinggir Zaaba in Taman Tun Dr Ismail, Kuala Lumpur, will be taking legal action against Mass Rapid Transit Corporation (MRT Corp) on the grounds that it has misled them into believing that residents will be compensated for the acquisition of their houses for the MRT project.

Resident Norliza Kamaruddin said a letter of intent had been hand-delivered to MRT Corp by their appointed counsel on Aug 16.

“We have been taken for a ride by MRT Corp as we were made to believe that they will compensate us accordingly for the acquisition of our houses.

“However, when the special compensation committee (SCC) rejected the acquisition plan on the basis that there was no legal requirement to do so and that it would create an unnecessary precedent for similar situations in the future, we had no choice but to resort to this,” Norliza said at a press conference held at her house in Pinggir Zaaba yesterday.   Read more ........

SS20 residents berbuka puasa with the police

By the people, for the people

PJ SS20 residents decided to organise their own security — and asked for help from the police rather than paying for private guards.

CAN a neighbourhood organise better (and free!) public security by working more closely with the police?

This is what the residents of Damansara Kim, Petaling Jaya, decided to do after reeling under a wave of snatch thefts, car break-ins and house burglaries in 2007.

“Rather than outsourcing the job to a private company, we decided to have dialogues with the police and requested more patrols in our area,” says Suresh Martin, a resident who is a security company consultant.  Read more .......
