David called me to inform me that MPSJ will be having a meeting tomorrow with the developers near by, to discuss on the opening of an interchange to Maju Expressway (MEX) (formerly known as Kuala Lumpur – Putrajaya Expressway). David of Bukit Ikhlas will be attending the meeting, representing Bukit Ikhlas Development Sdn Bhd.

Hopefully they could bring us good news, where the interchange will be built in the near future for our convenience.

1. Pengarah Ismail has submitted the relevant report to the statutory authorities, TNB, JKR, IKRAM etc…
2. CCTV to start this week.
3. Suction Tank at Jabatan Pertanian, across Tmn Uni Indah in progress.
4. Access Road – behind Sri Pinang, piliing work completed, roadwork to commence. Foundation work started near retention pond.
5. TNB started coring work from Commercial ctr through (underneath road ) to old guard house area
6. Optional Packages – meeting with Architect this Thursday.
7. Units – both internal & external – ongoing touch up rectification.

On behalf of purchaser Wei Yong:

Q. How confirmed are they to deliver the project by this year?
A. This time they are very positive that the project can be delivered latest by end of the year. If the approved access road blocked at the Sun Garden can be reopened, it might be earlier then that.

Q. Why is the landscaping still at progress even though the project should be expected to be completed soon.
A. The landscaping is actually quite fast to complete because the hardscape is there already. The developer do not wish to put up all the trees so soon because they will need extra resource to look after the trees before the completion.

Q. How is the compensation be paid?
A. It will be in cash and the terms is as per SPA.

Q. Who will manage the property when it is completed?
A. The developer might be the management for the first year and the residence of BV will have to form some sort of owners committee and bring in the management to manage the property after that.

Q. How the Club House works?
A. The clubhouse will consist of the common facilities such as swimming pool, badminton court, etc. Currently it is not decided if the clubhouse shuld be opened to the public or only to the BV because if only open to BV residence, if the participation is low, the cost to maintain the facility will be a problem.

In addition, Wei Yong also said that the dinner meeting on June 16 was very helpful especially to help convince us that they were trying their best to complete the project.

We did not have a secretary to record the meeting but I can conclude what we have discussed.

Basically the meeting is for us to sit down with the correspondent authorities, to discuss on the issues ahead and the solutions too. The developer have done their very best to make the issues transparent to us, and the local council and Pengarah Jabatan Perancangan Bandar MPSJ have assured us that they are working closely with the developer to make sure all the works are carried out without any problem, to reduce any possible delay during CF application.

The Pengarah, Mr Ismail even asked us to call him or email him directly, to ask him about any submission of plan by the developer and the status of the submission. I would say this comes as something very positive to the purchasers because the local authorities and council are really helping us and the developer.

In my opinion, Bukit Ikhlas developer is a also victim of the delay. They took over the project as the previous owner had difficulty to complete it. In such scenario, the possible outcome would have been the whole project to be abandoned and handed over to the federal government, where the completion is forever, and it will be a real nightmare to the purchasers. Fortunately, the current developer took over the project and are overcoming the obstacles in order to complete the project.

Additionally, the developer reps stated that the only obstacle left now is the access road where a study has been carried out by the professionals, and the proposal of the possible access roads will be submitted to the Pengarah in a couple days. They said multiple meetings with MPSJ had been taken place to get this issue resolved. This has been confirmed and agreed by the Pengarah.

This is the list of those who have confirmed to attend the meeting on Sunday:

- Mr David (Bukit Ikhlas)
- Mr David’s colleague (Bukit Ikhlas)
- Mr Ismail (Pengarah Jabatan Perancangan Bandar, MPSJ)
- Mr Pooi (MPSJ Councillor)
- Sam@Sootho (Purchaser)
- Lei (Purchaser)
- Au (Purchaser)
- Au’s sister-in-law (Purchaser)
- Wei Yong (Purchaser)
- Cha Foo (Purchaser)
- Cheah (Purchaser)

Seriously we need more purchasers to attend the meeting, to show our concern, to let all parties to know that how badly we are in needing our dream house.

Besides,I have thought of a couple questions to throw in the meeting, something like:

‘What else do Bukit Ikhlas need to do and add so that the purchasers can get the CF and move in by end of year 2009?’

Hopefully we can get some tips from the correspondent authorities, and we can offer the ‘tips’ to Bukit Ikhlas on June 16 meeting.
