Dear Residents,
There were 2
break-ins reportedly happened in the second week of December 2012. Both the
houses were not equipped with any alarm system hence when it was broken in,
there were no alarm raised and from the outside, no one knew there were intruders
in the houses.
We hope the house
owners will install some of such anti-theft devices like camera and alarm
systems. If at all, it will act as a deterrent and should there be any
break-ins, the alarm will help alert the guards on patrol.
Because of these
two recent cases, we have added another patrol unit on 24x7 duties until the
holiday season is over as many people are expected to leave for long holidays
and leaving their houses empty. The guards will also be extra vigilant at the
entry/exit points. With the additional patrol unit, this will of course
increase our operation cost.
This brings us to
the next pertinent point. In order for us to be effective in ensuring that
crime is curbed, we need your continued support. Please pay your subscription
and on time. Also, just because the guards are around, you should not to take
things for granted so please be vigilant at all times. Do keep a look out for
your neighbors who are away and notify the police/guards should you see
something amiss.
Here is an update
of what is ahead in our community:
Futsal Court
The court was
finally opened for play from the first week of December 2012. There was much
delay in getting the “Certificate of Fitness” or CF from MPSJ. The delay had
caused some impatient residents to take the situation into their own hands by
breaking the locks etc. Such unruly behavior was uncalled for as everyone was
working towards getting the court to be opened as soon as possible.
The soft opening of
the court marks a milestone for the developer of the court as they are now
proceeding to demolish the old one to be planted with trees/plants on the
existing land.
As we have
mentioned, to prevent abuse, misunderstanding and vandalism, certain rules and
regulation will apply. The rules and regulation are being deliberated amongst
the committee members. Once it is firmed up, a notice to the rules will be
displayed at the court.
We are targeting to
have the official opening on Saturday, 12 January 2013 at 10am. There will be a
friendly match and we will be inviting some guest and VIPS from TopSpeed, officials
from MPSJ and our ADUN, Subang Jaya. We hope all of you, our residents will
join in. There will be refreshment and a friendly game amongst the residents.
Collection
As a reminder, the
collection dates are for October 2012 to end of March 2013, a total of RM300
for six months of security services. We do welcome payment for a full year so
for your family’s safety including your own and the community at large, we urge
you to make the payment as soon as possible if you have not done so.
Please make payment
to “Persatuan
Penduduk USJ 11/3, Subang Jaya, Selangor” to your respective Street
leader and be mindful to get the receipt from them. It will provide a record
for both parties should situations arise when a claim from the insurance
company against burglary is necessary. For your information, we have taken out
a policy that covers break-ins for our members.
When you receive
your receipt, please check to make sure all the details like name of issuer,
amount, dates, etc are correct to avoid any future misunderstanding. Also, we
strongly recommend you to make payment via cheque rather than cash.
If you still want
to make cash payments then please do insist for a valid receipt which should be
issued to you immediately. We plan to do
a ‘walk-about’ in January 2013 to visit the residents who have yet to pay.
Car and plaque
stickers
New car stickers as
well as stickers for your house plaque will be issued for the New Year. Please
do take note – we will start to issue them when it is ready for distribution.
Adopt a Fire
Hydrant program with Bomba – Gotong Royong campaign
The “Adopt a fire
hydrant” which was held on Saturday, 13 October 2012 was a success. It was
hosted by the team from our local Fire unit located in SS 17. Our ADUN, YB
Hannah Yeoh as well as Dr. Loi, our councilor for our area attended the event.
There was brief by
the local fire chief. This was followed by the cleaning and painting of the
fire hydrants in our area. Random testing on the fire hydrants were carried out
to make sure they function properly.
Refreshment was
served and several residents came out to join the event. Thank you to all who
came and supported the event.
