Account reviewed

Mr. Ajitpal our treasurer, managed to receive the account report dated up to 30 June 2009. It is quite shocking to find out our current status of the account balance. We're in deficit now. Details of our account will be posted by Suthagar soon on the notice board.

The only reason is that there're debtors who owned us alot of money. Many of the units are from our "dear" developer. I got the exact units number with me and i'm still contemplating whether to release the affected unit to public. But as usual, i wont discuss the details over here.

Yesterday, there's 1 resident from Block C joined us for the meeting. We're certainly welcome those interested and wish to be in the meeting. The feedback i got, not many of the resident go through the minutes. I encouraged all of concerned owner to go throught the minutes to obtain the latest developement updates on CV. You can obtain the previous minutes from management office.

For your information, the cost of installing the glass door and the access card system for all blocks requires money closed to RM90K. To be honest, at the moment we dont have that amount of money for all the major upgrades. Most of the plan for upgrading work will be put on hold untill we see surplus in our bank statement. It is estimated at least untill December or before Christmas.

If you wish to contribute ideas and infos on anything related to CV, kindly do so.

MInutes of 4th meeting

Is done and already up in the forum.

Busy weeks

Already been a week plus since i last posted here. My tight schedule of work really drives me crazy... 1 more event coming this weekend and now am preparing for it.

Nevertheless, my work for CV never stops. Myself and few others commitee members (Jerry and adrian) and Suthagar also joined in to meet the representative from this broadband service company last week. It is an initiative of us to get suitable company to offer the service since not everyone satisfy with their existing internet service. But we cant promise anything until we find out wat they could offer us. Speed, quality of service and affordable price are the few criterias we look into on deciding the service.




We already set a date for them to test the service in CV. I heard many of the broadband com comes out with attractive package. But unfortunately, not all com able to cover Dutamas area.

We still keep our option open untill we identify a good and viable service provider.

I received few complaint on few matters. The only way i can deal with it is to bring it up during the meeting. I'm glad few owners are very much associate themselves and care about what's happening in CV.

As you all know, we got all the negative reply from developer on the request we send to them. Our chairperson already wrote in to them to attend this Wednesday meeting again. I dont think they know we meant serious business. Let's see what's outcome of this meeting.

For your information, we cant do much in term purchasing untill we obtain our financial status. As this involved our money, proper study needs to be carried out before deciding to go ahead with the plan.

None of us are satisfied with the current progress especially after the treatment we received from developer. At least we still hang on to what we actually started with.

The purpose of this post is to give a overall view on the progress going on right now. It is not a report on the details of the plan we have for CV.

Road to block D

Few more picture that i took last week. The new entrance is gpoing to open soon. According to management office, road hump will be install along this road. They rpomised end of the year or early nexy year, think again. The same process applied. This involved DBKL and BOMBA.

Will updates on the development of Block D.

Updates for 4th meeting

Not good and i think is totally unacceptable. This is how i described the reply from developer. Developer got back to us with a letter and rejecting all the request. They not even bothered to come for meeting. Indeed, is very demotivating. I'm depressed.

I cant imagine they're so particular on every dollar and cents. Not even think of subsidizing the partial cost on the upgrading works. I'm actually prepared for this to happen. But never thought of receiving 100% rejection. I know this task is almost impossible and we're actually trying our luck but we got to try even the probability closed to zero. We're talking big sum of money here.

So, if we failed what's next? We're in the midst of preparing and planning our next course of action. We'll think of a way to overcome all the problems.

We did not get hold the lastest financial account. And we have not officially take over the management of CV account. For the details of it, I cant comment much untill i come out with the minutes. And is not appropriate also to talk about it here since it is accessible by public.

But my advise to all owners, pls pay your maintenance fee on time. If you know your neighbour is not paying, remind them. This is only way you can maintain the value of your investment. Basically you just pay and other people will do what they supposed to do.

Previous meeting minutes

If you wish to have one copy for all the previous meeting, you may request from management office or ask from Mr. Suthagar. Strictly to owner/resident only.

Small issues but difficult

I noticed that there're few residents still ignored the warnng and continue to hang their clothes and bedsheet at the balcony railing. Since they're doing this at certain time only, therefore it is not easy to identify the units no.

I'm calling other owners to help to identify this units no and inform management office. If happened they're your neighbour, maybe you may advise them on this matter on the do' and dont'.

The same goes to those dump their rubbish at the entrance of the rubbish room. I'm sure many owners suffered this when you're blocked by this pile of rubbish to the rubbish room. Together we help to build a better place to live.

Warranty period of 18 months

Just to inform that especially the owner of unit in block B the warranty period is ending soon. If you received your key last year May, then it'll end Oct this year. It is started from the date of vacant possesion. Total warranty period is 18 months. If any defect you identified is due to work defect by developer, you can submit the complaint to them.

Now, they're residing in ground floor of Block C. Get the form and fill up. If i'm not mistaken, the current person in charged is En Khairol. Look up for any leaking especially the ceiling, piping in the bathroom or the defect in the main door installation. Dont forget!

Getting Contractor for Renovation

Many residents email me on the contact for renovation company. And they're asking me whether i"m happy with my reno company. AS for me, not so much of complaint. They delivered what they promised. And the most important factor is the price. I'll not quote they're the cheapest but at least one of the reasonable one.

I did for my plaster ceiling, kitchen cabinet, grill, wiring work, tiling, air con point, plug point and basically everything. So far, almost 1 year, still no room for complaint.

An advise for all, pls nego hard with the reno company. I'm sure u'll pay 20% less compare to few month before. The reno company is looking hard for business. Even our anchor reno company in CV drop their price. But not sure on the quality material they provided. PLs bear in mind, you're the boss. You made the call, not them.

Let me know or email me if you need help on this.

After 2 weeks

Is already 2 weeks by now. If you guys awared and have been tagging along the pending issues in Changkat View Condo. Initially, we planned to meet up with developer today for the updates. But it was rejected because we're seeing them again on 16th July. According to them, they'll only come to meet us only max once a month.

I know many of you are anxious espcially the updates on the solution by developer. Not sure what's their plan and action on the request. We're trying to get a written reply from them. Mr Ben is the manager in charged for Changkat View Condo to replace Mr Chua who attended the AGM.

In the mean time, we're constantly monitor the performance of the security guards. We had identified few problems that still persisting. They're still lacking in giving good service especially not stopping owners from parking at the entrance. Management office had issued the warning letter to their company as a first reminder. I think a second warning letter will follow suits.

As far as i concerned, not many owners actually put down their complaint on the form. Due to this, it is quite difficult for the management to do the probing on the complaint. If possible, fill up the complaint at the management office and get a copy.

I understand that there's difficulty in getting the streamyx service. Not sure what's the problem occured with TMnet. And for us, we're still identifying the suitable company to our resident. One thing for sure, it is not a compulsory service you guys need to sign up for the package but at least an alternative for you if you're not happy with your existing internet service provider.
