RAs taking advantage of grey area in law


It's time the authorities especially the federal government put a stop to these illegal informal gated community schemes in non-strata (or non private) housing developments... for the good of the nation.

There have been just too many grievances, corrupt practices, flouting of rules and blatant disregard of the laws and guidelines by the RAs operating such schemes in non-private residences.

As a result, these have created anger, disharmony and disunity in the communities. It is dividing the people. This is certainly far from our aspiration to become a harmonious and united society under the new National Unity Blueprint.

Not everyone wants to live in a GnG environment. The developers certainly did not mention anything about their properties being GnG at all when they were launched for sale.

There are normal residences and there are proper GnG residences. Residents who wish to live in a gated and guarded community can always choose to move to a proper formal GnG residence. Just don't create an illegal one and impose their selfish desires on others.

We urge the Registrar of Societies (ROS) and all the municipal councils to review their policies and requirements when it comes to giving approvals to the RAs that want to implement GnG schemes in public residential housing areas. These informal schemes have become a nuisance and hindrance to the people. Period.

Gated communities should be limited to strata-titled properties and exclusive private residences with private facilities and amenities that are managed by the joint management corporations. 

Residences with individual-titles with public amenities that are managed by the local municipal council should not be allowed such gated schemes anymore.

Komuniti Rukun Tetangga should become the only scheme allowed in all non-private residences and housing estates.
