100 residents and guests came together for a light breakfast followed by a talk presented by Nestle on digestive health and a simple brunch. KPJ Damansara contributed rendang chicken and many of our residents brought muruku and cakes to share with all.

The atmosphere of the occasion was livened up with Christmas carolling and more so when YB Tony joined our residents in the carolling.

Selangor Targets 24-Hour Pothole Fixes With New Filler Premix Read

Called Cold-Mix Carboncor, this new premix formula is what road maintenance contractors in Selangor will be using to patch up potholes within the state, which during its launch at the JKR office in Gombak was cited to allow potholes to be fixed within 24 hours of being reported.

Zaidy Abdul Talib, State Infrastructure and Public Facilities Committee chairman, said that concessionaires would be instructed to patch up every pothole within their respective areas as soon as possible, with a loose time frame set at within one day. Using the excuse of low or insufficient funding would not be accepted, writes The Star. 

“In the past, concessionaires only patched up potholes based on a budget but now they have to patch up every pothole,” Zaidy said, adding that the bidding process for the new five-year agreement have already begun as the current concession agreements will end on December 31st.    Read more ......

Field Upgrade

26 Nov 2015  

RT and RA committee members at a discussion with YB Yeo Bee Yin and MBPJ officers on Central Zone field upgrade.

1. The flooring of the basketball court is made up of a foundation layer of asphalt with a top layer of rubberized material for greater shock absorption and sound dampening. This material is not as hardy as the concrete flooring which we had earlier. We are advised not to place heavy and hard objects or furniture on the basketball court as this will damage the flooring. 
2. Exercise equipment which were scheduled to be installed this year will be delayed to 2016 due to insufficient budget from MBPJ.

3. A better water conveyance drainage system, which prevents ponding of water on the field will be also be in the plan to be constructed in 2016.

4. MBPJ to trip overgrown trees in the field as well as other parts of the Central Zone..
