Residents infuriated by City Hall’s inconsiderate move - StarProperty.my


Bukit OUG residents in Kuala Lumpur are concerned over the safety of their property after parcels of land in the neighbourhood were cleared, leaving a hillslope exposed.

The DBKL also recently put up another signboard to inform the public that an application has been received to increase the density of the middle plot of land from 60 people per acre to 500 and to build four blocks of 31 to 33-storey flats with six levels of car park.


He said the bridge along Jalan 3/155 was also not very stable and had previously sunk at the ends due to heavy traffic.

Kok said she has been told that the bridge was a temporary one and nothing has been done to upgrade the bridge or widen it.

“I used to stay around here and it would take me at least 15 minutes just to get out of the area onto Jalan Awan Besar and the situation is worse now.

“What would happen to the traffic with all this additional developments?” said Kok.

Ho Hup wins back its 60-acre land

KUALA LUMPUR: Ho Hup Construction Co Bhd has won back a piece of prime land in Bukit Jalil after the Kuala Lumpur High Court declared null and void a joint development agreement (JDA) that was long deemed unfavourable by the company's existing shareholders.

Ho Hup's previous board of directors, led by former deputy chairman Datuk Vincent Lye Ek Seang, had inked a JDA between the PN17 company's 70% subsidiary, Bukit Jalil Development Sdn Bhd (BJD), and a wholly-owned entity of Malton Bhd, Pioneer Haven Sdn Bhd, for the development of the 60-acre freehold land.

Meanwhile, the company has received conditional approval from DBKL for plans for the 60-acre land, according to Wong.

The masterplan involves a mixed commercial and residential scheme with a potential GDV of RM4.2 billion, to be rolled out in six phases over 10 years.

"The plan involves 8 million square feet of net saleable area with 170 office units in five- and eight-storey buildings, six blocks of service apartments, a commercial strip of shops and a hotel," said Wong.

How Do You Know Which Property Is Good To Buy ?

There is an article today in The Star about tips of buying property http://www.starproperty.my/PropertyScene/PropertyScene/12449/0/0

I have been asking this question myself when I start investing in property, who can advice me whether I a particular property is good buy or not? I am not good in negotiation, who can help to me to negotiate for better price?

In Malaysia, most of the people will ask their friends and family opinion for buying property. But are they asking the right person? Property investing is a "knowledge" by itself. Most of the people only have experience buying one or two properties in their life, these limited experience is equal to fresh graduate experience in working life.

How about Property Agent ? Yes, no doubt property agent is the real expert in this area. They buy and sell property everyday. However please do not forget property agent survive based on commission. Who pay them the commission then? The Seller. So how can you ensure the advice from the agent is not bias towards Seller?

With the advance in technology, people start turn to Internet for advice. They go to property forum, blog, newspaper and etc. Some post their questions there and hope some guru will guide them from there.


In nutshell, most of the people try to learn to be property investor themselves. They pay the price to learn the the property investment skill themselves. They buy, they sell, they may mistake, they learn, they profit and on going...

Why there isn't any property consultant in the market, that can advice you which property to buy, when to sell, how much to pay, which loan to take and etc. Why we need to waste the time and learn it, and worse we may make wrong decision during the learning?
