!
April 30, 2008 at 1:23 PMAnonymous: I tried to email to the developer but they seem ignore my email. Besides, I called up the Senior Marketing Manager of PLB however his explanation to me is all rubbish, kept trying to twist and turn around without providing a FIRM answer. Many issues have been raised by me: swimming pool is not operating yet?covered car park is without shed?developer is misleading us on the additional 200 sq ft..and the strata title issue(should be granted at a minimum of 1 and half year). The manager of PLB even told me that WE CAN DO WATEVER WE WANT TOO..as they cannot commit anything in black and white at this moment..I will attend this coming meeting, anyone able to send me the map?

3) 1ST MEETING ISSUE :about the indoor contractor ,we have the right to hire our own contractor to renovate our house ,we NO NEED to us this indoor contractor ( who are charging so expensive, more then triple of the market value ).A gruop of the resident already make a police report,if the indoor contractor come "kacau" just report to the police .Last week there was some action have been taken by the police .So , please inform all your friends or neighbor don't hire the indoor contractor start from now .

Please inform all your friends and neighbor try your best to attent this meeting . TQ
May 7, 2008 at 10:41 PMAnonymous: I would suggest that you print out a meeting memo in A5 paper size and put into all letter boxes. This is to ensure more people know the meeting schedule and attend the meeting as most of owner may not access this blogger. Furthermore, those onwer will get to know the truth fact even they don't attend the meeting. If all owner boycott the appointed contractor, then the developer may take some action or the contractor reduce the price to more reasonable price to get business.
May 9, 2008 at 5:52 PMAnonymous: The meeting for 10-05-2008(Saturday) is cancelled. Y.B. postpone this coming Sartuday meeting to next week 17-05-2008(Saturday). For futher infomation, i will let urs know when i got news from person in change. Please ibform those are attend the meeting. THank!

May 26, 2008 at 4:15 PMAnonymous: how did the meeting go ?. Who won ?
May 27, 2008 at 1:32 AMAnonymous: at last i found somewhere where i can share with :( i make several complaints with the maintenance but they just keep beating around the bush. i ask about the gym they said later.

i ask about tennis court net. they said will ask the kasporat guy. then i ask why they put up the small lighting on the ground instead of pole lighting, and they send me the contractor guy. the contractor guy said they cant do anything because they just follow plan. for your information the same goes to the basket ball court too.

its true what the ppl said about the in-house renovator. its damn expensive. even aircond also (pao) want it. just only labour normally its rm300 but they charge rm580. everything is expensive there. even for the tiles, its should be 2 X 2 instead of 16 inch. we being cheated for the flooring tiles.

when i go to PLB office in beach street they give me funny excuses and i did call the guy from PLB office asking why is the insurance being insured for only rm55millions??? they cant give me a good reason instead they just give u funny answers.dear brothers and sisters if i calculate by the cheapest rate which rm 125,000 X 754 unit (not including the shophouses) its should be = rm 94,250,000. correct me if im wrong look into the insurance stuff which u get it from the PLB office. i did ask the PLB lady who came to Serina Bay she said she dont know.

if we make it market price at rm 170,000 X 754 = rm 128,180,000. man, our houses is under insured more than 100% its far behind.

and since febuary the maintenace guy MR Ismail keep on telling me the strata title stuffs will be obtain in these 2 months for the extensions and where is it??? its being nearly 4 months now? keep on tell us he will help. one thing on this Ismail, he have no respect for the residents. when ever the owner ask he will talk without looking at u, sometimes he will talk backing u.

and the car parks, have u guys see your carparks? i believe the turning part will be the most difficult even for professional drivers. its too narrow, how could they do it that day? i know something is wrong once i saw the turning part.

even for 1st floor where it suppose to be recreational area, its all only with cements. come on its just like rushing works. its should be at least being tiles up the whole area. its not low cost apartment. we pay with our hard earned money, honestly we should fight for it. and im in.

please let me know when the next venue for gathering or complaints please. all owners please attend as well. fight for your hard earned money.

Apply to convert to freehold status, CM tells landowners
Residential leasehold landowners in Penang can begin applying to the state government to convert the government land into freehold, said Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng.

He said the state was studying a new land policy, which would allow the 30-year, 60-year or 99-year leasehold land be converted into freehold land on a case-by-case basis.

“Those given the approval must, of course, pay the land premium,” he said after he le

May 29, 2008 at 4:33 PMAnonymous: Are you sure the aircond the in-house contractor charged you RM580?I did the aircond installation with them, they charge RM180 for aircond point, concrete wall and rm120 for non-concrete. For aircond installation, RM200 each, which I found it cheaper compared asked outside which charged RM300.
May 29, 2008 at 4:54 PMAnonymous: it's great having this blog to take it head on with the developer. What the committee need to do now is to hire a lawyer, and fight for this case...

May 30, 2008 at 12:21 AMAnonymous: 2 days ago i received a mail from the management regarding payment for maintenance fee for may and june. but here i wanna stress that the only facility can be use is swimming pool. there is tennis court but without net and the lighting for the tennis court and basketball court is inappopriate. i didnt get to see the gym and sauna. so why are we(residents) paying for maintenance without the full facility and some which not operational yet??? should we hold the payment first?

MCs vs Parcel Proprietors....

"mandatory" is to be balanced with Rights & Obligations!!

I SURELY SALUTE YOUR “Pay first and dispute later" attitude. According to such an attitude,

A. No one should question PTG on the delay of Strata Title even knowing that Quit Rent is supposed to be based on the Strata Title. Your obligation to pay Quit Rent to PTG officially only started when your name is on the Title!!

B. Similarly, you are not the legal proprietor of "your" properties until the Strata Title were "registered" or "transferred"), therefore, why should MP be charging you the Assessment before the registration or transferred?

C. STA only concerned MC and the "registered" proprietors. Therefore, if MC is there but buyers not "registered", the Developer should be the "proprietors" liable to pay the Management Fee.

Exclusive : more expose on developers and their thugs!
4 June 2007 - 8:38pm
Ed: Our housing campaign is gaining momentum : we are publishing a letter from a reader who offer a few good overall pictures on the developer-with names named, and a few good tips on how to fight the developers' contractors. The only condition for the piece is : keep the author anonymous. OK-deal. Here is the article :

hi
actually i have been facing this problems for the past 12 yrs. No action
been taken. I can even list down the name of the contracor company that
involved. Let me tell you, the new I-avenue also will face the same
problems. And the company that involve will be Idea Paulse. They are even
worst. Followed by the belleview project at Perak Road. Another 1 will be at
Mount Eskine, which is under Developer Ujung Pelangi and i expect the
company involve will be Hillside renovation contractor. We have been bullied
for the pass 10yrs. The projects that effected- Desa Airmas(sg dua),
I-Avenue shoplot, Symphony Park at Jelutong.

Kindly to call us for urs problem as we try to solve it for "U" and ME".
June 4, 2008 at 12:19 AMAnonymous: dear Shawn,

maybe we can circulate the message to everyone through emails. because when u put the notice at the board the management will immediately take out the notice just like before when the 1 June gathering notice. it was taken down on the next day.
June 5, 2008 at 9:39 AMAnonymous: One thing that i have to tell ur all is, the notice board is belong to all resident of Serina Bay as we pay for the Management to service us. They don't have a right to take off the notice of committe from the notice board. May be we have to ask for permission as a respect to them. Put it on the notice is legal to all resident of Serina Bay. So "THEY CAN'T" take off the notice . If they simply take it out, so that mean Management is our "BOSS", as we have to listen to them. NO! NO! NO! If they doing so, i wil go to tell them as well and sent the notice to each house letter box. If anyone just keep complain like someone here, why not u just join us and speak up for ur property. This not just my problem as it also is ur problem as well. Our next meeting will be on 15 JUNE 2008,(SUNDAY) 4PM at swimming pool area. We hope u can attend the gathering with us.

June 13, 2008 at 6:36 PMAnonymous: Dear Resident of Serinna Bay,

The best way to deal this problem is to meet Y.B personnally at his office in KOMTAR and discuss with him this issues. If he agrees with our plight we should then arrange a meeting which will be attended by the resident, Y.B, and the developer. I can also arrange reporters to be present if the need arrised. If this is agreeble please do e-mail me at zedene@hotmail.com. My name is Zul and i'am one of the buyer of 1 unit at B block.

June 18, 2008 at 5:55 PMAnonymous: Dear all Serina Bay residents,

THIS IS A LETTER BY OUR LAWYER FIRM (MALKIT SINGH RANDHAWA BAIDURA & CO.)

LAWYER IN CHANGE:
MR. Malkit Singh S/O Dalip Singh

Our Ref:
MSR.LIT.1380.08

Date:
05 June 2008

CONTAINS OF LETTER IS ABOUT:-

RE: Serina Bay Apartments Erected on Land Known AsH.S(D) 13599, PT 90, Section 9E, Georgetown, North East District, Penang.

We act for Mr. Tan Kean Phaw and seventy four othersresidents and owners of units in the aforesaid project.

Our clients have instructed us to write to you as follows:-

Despite the Certificate of Fitness being already issued and our clients having occupied their units, a number
of facilities have still not been provided and this is in breach of the terms of the Sale & Purchase Agreement.

The facilities not yet provided are the sauna room, the gym room, a changing room for swimming pool use,
gazebo, games room and facilities not fully provided are incomplete landscaping, and insufficients covered
car parks.

Our clients also instruct that construction material and debris have been left by side of fence in the car-park
and the Block A and B entrance are partially blocked by cement bags. This constitutes a total eye-sore to
the residents and their visitors and poses a safety risk as well.

Our clients futher instruct that the car park roof and down pipe are leaking and water has begun to
accumulate near the side walls of the car park and there are signs of cracking walls.

The swimming pool is not being attended to and cleaned regularly resulting in flotsam and moss which can
constitute a health risk to our clients.

Our clients others grievances are that you are only allowing your own choice of contractors to conduct
renovation work for the residents and the residents are not allowed to choose their own contractors. Your
contractors are changing much higher rates. Kindly cease this practice immediately failing which our clients
will lodge complaints including to the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Ministry of Housing and Local
Government as you are in no position to monopolise the choice of our clients contractors.

Our clients also inform us that they are being asked to pay between RM300.00 to RM2,000.00 non
refundable deposits before their renovation works can begin. Can you please confirm this as it is strange to
request non-refundable deposits.

Our clients others major complaint isthat they were given representations by you and futher confirmed by the
layout in your showroom unit that they were entitled to extend their units by a futher 200sq.ft but they are
now made to understand that they cannot do so. Your clarification on this issue will be appreciated.

Our clients also wish a joint management body to be set up as soon as possible to have all their grievances
and complaints addressed. Please let us know whther you can arrange an initial meeting. Our clients are
open to an amicable resolution to their problems.

as such please kindly institute appropriate measures to address and remedy our clients grievances and
complaints with fourteen(14) days here of failing which our clients will suspent all payment of service changes
upon expiry of the said period and institute relevant legal proceedings including compelling you to provide for
the agreed facilities without any futhers reference to you in which event our clients will hold you liable in costs.

Thank You.

Your faithfully,

July 2, 2008 at 7:56 AMAnonymous: Regarding from latter PE Pembinaan Kasporat Sdn Bhd, promised all facilities complete at 4/8/08. That can make our unit price up at least at RM170k.
July 2, 2008 at 11:36 AMAnonymous: Ahmad Johanis, others, when is the next meeting to talk about the 200 sq ft? Joint committee next meeting?
July 14, 2008 at 8:09 PMAnonymous: I am an owner of One Unit Of Serina Bay and somehow i didnt manage to move into the new house yet ,waiting for the investigation to be conducted and to renovate the 200 sq.Feet.

My current house is sellnig away at 25th July . And we need 3 rooms to content our family . I we cant move in if the renovation isnt done yet for the renovation will probably bring a lot of noise and distures to my family .

I have been chased after the management since 2 mtnhs ago , subjecting them about this matter and somehow the management told me to contact the developer .

and when i contact the developer , the developer ask me to contact the surveyor . And guess what answer i get from the surveyor ?

The surveyor told me , Our management is owing them 10k + carpark accesories and the investigator ask them to pay 1st before they come to investigate and when i call back to the management , they told me , they have been chasing after the boss to pay and sign the cheque since 2 mnths ago but their boss not yet sign .

What kind of prob is that ? ANd tell me where should i move to my this end of mnth ? Can u guys pls think for us and put on our shoe ?
We made full payment to you but yet u keep dragging our renovatino proccess .
I believe i am not the only victims as i can see there's a LOT OF PPL WRITTING IN THE ELAVATOR 'S WALL THAT THEY MEET SUCH A PROB AS WELL.

Explain to me and can u think of a solution for us ?
I need a house to live in bu thios end of July!
July 14, 2008 at 8:31 PMAnonymous: its is true that the management owimg payment to the surveyor if that so v have to discontinue their service .........worry resident
July 15, 2008 at 11:02 AMAnonymous: Are we able to change the management team like what Asia Height is going?
July 15, 2008 at 12:36 PMAnonymous: any one know the actual dimensions of each of the room ?
July 16, 2008 at 5:08 PMAnonymous: Let's take action by using legal method, and change the whole management ! If needed, let's get Menteri's authority to make exception for change of this slow and unresponsive management. BTW, we can jointly sue the developer for making a false and misleading advertisement in the first place. Don't you all agree? Please reveal management, developer, and surveyor phone number, we must put their pants on fire !! - fed up
July 17, 2008 at 9:18 AMAnonymous: i am sure everybudy agree if v don,t have a proper + honest management so v have 2 voices out or else v r the unit occupants living not in peace or happy. THANKS 4 THOSE BRINGING THIS ISSUE UP.
July 18, 2008 at 12:42 AMAnonymous: im heard that there was thieve inside the Serina Bay apartment couples days ago. A few apartment units were victims....This news was published in the local chinese newspapaer as well.

If this is true, then we the apartment resident shall be more alert and take care of each other closely. Precaution action shall be immediate taken in-case observe any abnomaly in our surrounding.....such as request assistant n etc......but just wonder, how this thing can happen since every blocks building have security guard stays in front of main entarnce door?

and somemore those who has assess card only are allowed to walk through the entrance....something very wrong was happended!!!

im regret to know this case if it's a valid issue.....n of course we r going to lose confident to the Management team of Serina Bay.....too bad!!!
July 18, 2008 at 9:34 AMAnonymous: I think this was a conspire from the "Managment" and the "Indoor Contractor ", if there was thieve inside the Serina Bay apartment then they have a excuse to blame the "outside contractor".At last they won't allow our "own contractor" to do the renovation.As your information the "Indoor Contractor " worker are stay in our apartment ,they said they was rent the house from the ownner .So ,what will those worker do during mid night ? No body know .....!We all the resident should dismiss the previous "Managment Team" and "Indoor Contractor " !Change a new "Managment Team" ,hier our own contractor for our own home !
July 18, 2008 at 11:10 AMAnonymous: What is that the so called "Security Access card"?Don't you agree that this is just a way for the management to get additional money from the residents?I've checked with the management team and according to them, it's NON-REFUNDABLE for cash in case no longer needed. Telling me that going to reconfirm with the management team if it's refundable and I never get the feedback from her either. What is the reason of having this access card when people are still able to walk in freely with the loudsy management there?I see guard sleeping...see guard blocking the way for the resident due to forgetting to take the access card down as he's just going to the car park to take something..just blocking the way of residents but not the thieves!How funny!Change the management!Change the stupid system!
July 18, 2008 at 1:10 PMAnonymous: The 200sqt untill now still no news for us ,waiting for nothing really angry and can't do anything
why we are the victim ,poor management ,all are loose control !who can help ?????get lose .....
July 18, 2008 at 6:47 PMAnonymous: My parents called to the mangement this morning , asking about the 200 ft .
Funny thing is . they give my parents the same answer since few mnths ago
'' wait 3 / 4 more weeks''

Call together and ask about the problem again .
They keep tellnig us that waiting for their boss coming back from oustation since few weeks ago . They need their boss to sign the cheque .
Funny
Their boss get kidnapped ?!

04 - 3900799 PLB , the developer
04-2268905 The surveyor

We need to wait for the developer to pay the surveyor than only the surveyor will ask KL ppl to come over to investigate .

200ft is Urgent needed . My house is sellnig away on 25th July .

How's that possible for me to move?!

Explain to me , management , finda solution for me !

July 19, 2008 at 7:15 AMAnonymous: Committe member say you all can break d 200sqt don't care,we have a right but who can guarantee after break?Did committe member have a black n white to break it ?in law who can defend us after break ?both side can't give the true answer , so at the last we still are the looser .They find DAP to help but untill now where the answer from them ?one thing that DAP must do is fight back the 200sqt for us is not tell your to dig the bad thing from BN then we all people will respect n give you support but what you all doing ?just talking easy n doing nothing !!!
July 19, 2008 at 7:27 AMAnonymous: Actually the true developer from Serina Bay is Kasporat n not PLB ,PLB just a constractor to get order from Kasporat to built the building .The boss is Dato M (Horse Family )if i only know is from this family i will not buy cause lot of them have their granfather to take care beside now in Penang all the family member are die .
July 22, 2008 at 12:32 PMAnonymous: I am very disappointed to some of the resident in Serina Bay , the commitee was try their best to disband the indoor contractor(robber)but there are still some of those resident was hiring them ! fear to get trouble!especially the chinese resident.All the commitee effort was just wasted if we still hiering those "robber".What kind of rules that we cannot hire own contractor to renovate our own home ? Why we must pay more to then who was doing nothing and just taking our money ? Is not easy for us to own a house/home,we have to pay back over 30years for the bank loan.Then those "robber" are stil planing to "rob" us,just for their own riches!
SO, DEAR ALL OUR FRIENDS AND RESIDENT PLS DON'T HIRE THOSE "ROBBER" START FROM NOW ......DON'T ENCOURAGE THEM ,IF YOU ARE RICH TO PAY YOUR MONEY TO THEM ,PLS DONATE THOSE MONEY TO CHARITY.THIS IS BETTER CAN HELP MORE PEOPLE.
July 22, 2008 at 9:34 PMLawrenceT: Dear Meng,
From my knowledge, those robbers contractors practise happens at all new private residential buildings in Penang. I can say that most of them are tied up with the local gangsters and your hse now used to be their teritorry. They would harass chinese residents or maybe u can wait till 2-3years when they leave then only you can renovate w/o inteference. unless u're a malay or related to the IGP or Umno.Best still, maybe your boss is bigger than their boss. Then maybe you don't have to pay. However, some big projects from reputable contractors don't have this issue. Why? cos its already been absorbed to the building cost.
Anyway, you cant blame certain ppl here to get their work, as most of us needs a place to move in. And of cuz, we want a peace of mind that our home are safe while we're not around. Can you guarantee our safety? Why do we have to quarrel with them, whereas we've purchased our home there and wld be occupying. who knows? the might not revenge now, but wait till 6 months or 2 years latter then only find fault with you?.
But however, from my info, the contractors from Serina Bay are not gangsters. The management can't do anything as those contractors had purchased 2 units at RM500k with the clause that they are the only contractors allowed to work there. So, whose fault is that? The contractors or the developer? If the developer can refund the 500k, then i dont think this things would happen.
July 24, 2008 at 8:56 AMAnonymous: As i said i was very disappointed to some of the chinese resident in Serina Bay,"kia si".I just pay money you don't kacau me,other people i don't boder that's their bussiness! Why said that "the malay or related to the IGP or Umno don't have this problem" ? because their boss was bigger ? or because they are more rally then the chinese .Just for a example , the commitee of SB ,just a few of chinese guy , why ? because some ppl just talk much ,many idea when ask them to joint the commitee they said cannot,no timebla...bla...bla...."kia si" .When went you ask they Malay or India guys then will joint with out talking much ! That's our chinese attitude !
If we know that the indoor was not "Gangster" so what are you thinking for ? Still support them ?We the resident din't hire any indoor contractor ,we din't allowed them to work in our home ...
Dear stp Lawrence,i am chinese too,that's why i say all that...
July 24, 2008 at 12:56 PMAnonymous: I feel that some of the chinese resident at Serina Bay is really "Kia Si" like Lawrence. During committe meeting, everyone is agree not using the indoor contractor as we being told. but just because they afraid to get problem from the "Authorised Licence Robber" so they continue to use them. What the hell is this!!! I also dint ask the indoor contractor to do the renovation for my unit. I dont care whether they are gangster or anyone, at here i just remind them if u dare to do anything, may be somebody is wacthing u at the back "NOW". Please behave urself as well as the "Famous Malay Contractor" which his name is around Serina Bay. I also hope to join the committe , but i think i have been leave out by Mr. WahaX or Mr. K.P. Xan already. So please let me know how the latest & the JMB info. i always support and agree to Mr Meng at here. Well done friend!
July 24, 2008 at 1:43 PMAnonymous: I'm not a Serina Bays owner, but Mr Lawrance i want to let you know that even if you pay to that ' gangster ' they also can't ensure your safety. I read news last few day, half page is about the security problem in Serina bays. A lot of break in happen in your house. Do you thing those ' gangster ' can help you on this or the committee and police?
By the way who is UMXO in Penang here?? I only know Mr Guan Eng.
July 24, 2008 at 4:53 PMAnonymous: dear all :

i am the serina bay owner. already renovated my house with OUTSIDE Contractors...

do u know how i do it ? I am not gangster nor know the contractor.

very simple. i just storm the developer office at shop lot on top of nasi kander shop in front of ocean view apartment.

ask him to give me a letter and pass to the serina bay management office and pass 1 copy to my contractors..

no hassle. problems solved.

now i rent out my apartment at
RM700.00 and no problems.
July 24, 2008 at 6:09 PMAnonymous: Dear Owners

I am also an owner to one unit of Serina Bay. I believe that this priviledge for comments in this website should be fully utilised to market our properties. Not to spoil the value of our properties. May i suggest that official complaints be directed officially to the developer/property manager. All complaints posted here may cause a drop in the value of our property. I hope you do share my view. Thanks.
July 25, 2008 at 11:22 AMAnonymous: Yes, I totally agree with you, pls stop all the rumours to make things worse. In fact we should work hand in hand to stop the rumours instead of commenting so much about the bad things. Look at the bright side- things that we can do to overcome all the challenges faced? Form a comittee and change the loudsy, irresponsible management!
July 25, 2008 at 2:38 PMAnonymous: To whom are concern,

I agree with urs, but what i say is truth about Serina Bay. Problem is there & it not a rumours that some plp mention here that can make their property value down. First i just wan to ask some blogger or owner for Serina Bay, how much it cost u when u buy urs condo & what the value for nowday? I can tell u that it is abt rm125,000 for launching time. And now in market value it almost rm170,000 or higher. Is that a drop value for ur property? Or u just is a rich plp that wan to make money for urself as u buying the property just for investment??? Ask 2 urself!!! Then if u go to develepor or management office to make a complaint regarding too much problem that some resident facing now & nothing feedback from the management, what will u do? Wait and let plp to do ur part? That is a the cultural of Malaysian! "Tunggu & Tengok Macam Mana Dulu"!!! That is a funny thing!
July 25, 2008 at 3:39 PMAnonymous: Guys,

My opinion is this problem can be solve in a win win situation. No need to point whose fault or what so ever.
As a purchaser we all have the rights to voice out what ever matter that unsatisfied us as a purchaser. But, developer also has the right to ensure that purchaser will not breach the purchase agreement. Im sure that,developer also try their best,give their full effort to satisfy all our need and keep their promise. Just give them chance to settle the problem with their way and may be we can give them a good suggestion in order to get our right, with well manners,healthy discussion,human respect as a Malaysian.
Serina Bay is the Best!!..
July 25, 2008 at 4:14 PMAnonymous: It is a shame that most I mean MOST of the Penang property developer have its own kind of problems and poor quality. Why this happening and no one can stop them?

This is a good blog to let others to see how poor the developer is in the state.

My opinion they the property developer must deliver and not only just up to the buyers expectation but beyond it.

And i just hope that in future more quality developer came into Penang for development and kick those poor quality property developer out of the property market.

SICK
July 25, 2008 at 4:38 PMAnonymous: If the contractor is paying the developer 500K for 2 units, that consider a bribe. You can report them to ACA for investigation if you have any supportive documents.
July 25, 2008 at 4:59 PMAnonymous: RM170k is not a good value if you really go for a deep calculation...in case you sell off within 5 years, a penalty of RM5k will be incurred, another Rm5k to the property gain tax if this is not the 1st time u sell property,the additional legal fees inccured, interest rate that you're paying to the bank as well as the real estate agent fee in case they sell it on behalf...You still think that you are earning?
July 25, 2008 at 5:31 PMAnonymous: to all beloved owners of serina bay.

i) I assured u this property is a good buy. somebody is offering RM180K for my seaview unit, and i have just rejected the offer.

ii) in this area the price is RM220 per sqft feet already. lease hold or free hold is not relevant for apartment less than RM200K. further more, it is easy to apply for free hold now.

iii) The Star newspaper have highlighted the Break in in our apartment lately...to me , new apartment break in in Penang is not new....so don't worry about it. just need to tekan the police and Adun to help us.

i suggest the blogger should share value added info and discuss things to increase the value of our property.

long live serina bay....

August 5, 2008 at 10:37 AMAnonymous: 1) may i know if the maintenance fee still RM110 or has been increased?

2) how much is the market rate for rental (semi-furnished,furnished)?

3) Can we extend the 200sqft yet now?

Thanks !
August 5, 2008 at 10:40 AMAnonymous: 1) How's the maintenance fees issue? Is it really increased from RM110 to RM170? We must complaint !!

2) Can we extend the 200sqft yet now?

3) how much is the market rate for rental (semi-furnished/furnished)?

Thanks and let's fight for our Serina Bay !!
August 5, 2008 at 3:47 PMAnonymous: I think the maintenance fees is still the same, RM110 monthly. I never heard of any fees raise, and I have paid the maintenance fees till September 2008.

As for the 200 sqf, I think we can start the renovation work, the inspection is done (i think 1-2 weeks ago), now I heard they are waiting for the letter. But many has started their renovation work, even the inhouse developer has started their 200sqf work in the demo unit on 17th & 18th floor.

I think the rental rate should be around RM600-RM650 for an empty house with 1 car park. Should be able to get RM750 - RM800 with semi furnished (with lights, fans, water heater), might be higher if got aircond and fridge.

I think, if the apartment's maintenance is good, people living there also behaves themselve, the rental rate and sales price can be further improved. Just my small small opinions. :)
August 7, 2008 at 5:27 PMAnonymous: how long do u guys think we need to renovate the 200 square feet ? as in making the 200 sq. feet into a room :)
August 8, 2008 at 1:33 AMAnonymous: Dear all,

Any unit available for sales? Prefer high floor, seaview, 2 car parks. Please contact octagonal_elf@hotmail.com

Thank you.
August 13, 2008 at 1:54 PMAnonymous: Hmmm, no post in Serina Bay for a while, I think everyone is busy renovating the 200sqf. Once everyone has finished their renovation and moves in to stay, most of the shop lot there will open up as well, more people move in there, more demand. This is a good sign, Serina Bay now will have lesser and lesser problem, and the apartment price will goes up further. Do you agree? :)
August 18, 2008 at 10:04 AMAnonymous: I am worried about the low cost flat next to it, making the area more complicated & congested, high density. Lots of foriegn workers from the factory next to it may also creating issues around... sooner or later may becoming low cost zone.
August 26, 2008 at 12:35 AMAnonymous: #1 We have a unit at block c, the last time we went there to chk for the defect report, and its still on the waiting list for the indo-guy to chk out. Recently we go to chk and few defect are still there, and some new defect occur.

September 9, 2008 at 11:30 PMUnknown: is pets allowed in dis condo??
September 13, 2008 at 10:38 AMEx-in-none: I think it depends on whether got people complain about your pets... whether you have a kind neighbour or not. But normally apartment do not allow pet. But the apartment where i live, got some cute dogs... most importantly is the dog owner take care of their pet well, if the pet is not disturbing, I assume people will "one eye open, one eye close" ... ..
September 13, 2008 at 10:41 AMEx-in-none: Do you think the price for this apartment will keep on increase in future??

I think if the management is good, everything goes in good order, people live there behave themself, the price will increase. What do you think ???
October 3, 2008 at 12:05 PMShAwN_CrAzY: Last week I go to Serina Bay Management Office to make a complain about the licking
at the corridor paip in front of my house, as well as I need to collect a renovation form
from them since I going to start my renovation work SOON. When i reach the office, I
saw a malay office girl is sleeping there. Hello!!! I know you are puasa at that moment,
but if you feel sleepy please go home to sleep as you are working at that moment.
(After I get the info from my friends, noticed that she is En. Ismail's lovely daugther,
so 1 word for them - "WE ARE FAMILY" as u also can sing it). Drama is start during
the time I collect my third house key from a malay lady and request for the renovation
form, first at all she tell me that I already take the renovation form and start work
already. I also feel shock when I been start my renovation. After the sleppy malay girl
check again from the computer system, she look "WRONGLY". Then the malay lady
not allow us to take the renovation form, as we didn't pay the maintaince fees.She said
that is the order from developer (KASPORAT) with unfriendly and rude attitide to talk
to me. Directly I "WARNING" her don't use this kind of attitide to talk to me.So I ask her
back why I should paid to them as I not enjoy the facilities at my condo. She tell me that
in S&P agreement we have to paid once we obtain the OC. In other way, I tell her back in
S&P agreement, we need to paid once the facilities is complete but the truth is where
is our sauna & gym room. Both room is done with some equitment inside there, but the
door is lock. As I remember that management said it will be complete on 04 August 2008,
but the management is once again lie to us. Somemore I also didn't tell the malay lady
that I not going to paid it. How can she so sure that I not willing to paid. Now what u can
do is change me the interest as what the management office can do. But I will complain
the about incident at Persatuan Pengguna & related department as this is my right to fight.
Finally she give the renovation form and my house key to me. Before I leave that
management office, I ask her who the person that give the order not giving the renovation
form from KASPORAT, she tell me is En Ismail. In my mind, I think En Ismail is not from
KASPORAT. He just handle the management only. I think got another malay guy. Once again
she "BOHONG" to me. Please dont think we are moron, we also know a lot about them.
May be next week I will go to meet them and paid for RM1000 to start my renovation. About
the maintaince fee, just forget it. I will let Persatuan Pengguna take legal action to them.
October 3, 2008 at 3:25 PMUnknown: Hi All,

What would be the minimum cost for renovation @ Serina Bay?
For those who has completed renovation, pls advice...
Thank You
October 4, 2008 at 10:28 PMLawrenceT: seriously, if everyone is not willing to pay their maintenance fees, then the upkeep of the apartment will drop and the value of the property will also drop.
October 5, 2008 at 12:04 PMEx-in-none: I fully agree with Lawrence. Most important thing will be the maintenance of the apartment. If the maintenance is no good, this will greatly affect the value of the property, and even the rental will be affected too. For people live there, if the facility is not fully given, complain, complain, complain, and complain. But still maintenance fee also have to pay, I think. Or else the management there will have an excuse, saying that a lot do not pay maintenance, and do not perform their best to upkeep the apartment. Just my small opinion.
October 28, 2008 at 8:20 PMAnonymous: how is the status for all issue that had mentioned about SB?

December 9, 2008 at 1:42 AMEx-in-none: You are corner unit or centre unit?

For corner unit, normally less hacking, only knock the wall at the main door, and move the wall further outside. I see some people hack the kitchen wall as well, open kitchen style, which will provide very wide living hall area.

More knocking and changes for the centre unit, people knock the small centre room, and move the room to the empty space at the front.

As for the main windows at the living hall, many people extend the living hall to out side of the window, remove the window and become a small balcony.

You actually can walk around from every floor, some are currently doing the renovation, door wide open, u can go in and take a look.

March 22, 2009 at 5:52 PMspinnaker: Dear owners/representatives of Serina Bay resident committee:

The issue of dumpsite location along Jelutong Expressway (right beside the newly constructed Spring apartments) has been talking point of JE residents for years now.

To facilitate, expedite & garner public support in urging Penang's MPPP to relocate this dumpsite for good, I have setup a meeting with Jelutong MP, Mr Jeff Ooi as follows:

Komtar 28th floor, next Fri March27 at 10am. (The press will be there)

Kindly urge your residents/representatives to turn up in full force to support this motion. According to Jeff, although this proposal was highlighted last year, further public pressure is needed to force MPPP into serious action & not just 'empty talk'

Benefits of dumpsite relocation include cleaner air quality, healthier resident lifestyle along JE & better long-term potential for property value appreciation, esp. in vicinity of upcoming landmarks like "The Light"

Let us all join hands as well-aware residents of JE & make this happen for future benefit of our community & families..

Sincerely,
Upcoming resident of The Spring project
March 26, 2009 at 11:30 PMChristine: Hi, can we obtain for free hold in Serina Bay? I heard that this is not reclaimed land, suppose can convert it to free hold. Can any one comment on this?

March 31, 2009 at 6:05 PMHL: Free Hold or Leased Hold, does it matter? Normally an aparment life-time is 50 years. If it's Free Hold and your apt consider old and dangerous, you have to rebuild it, who want to pay for such fees. LOL...

May 20, 2009 at 9:27 PMUnknown: Hi Bakhtiar,

Are u part of the new commitee member? So far i dun really able to convinced tat there is total improvement yet, residents still allow to easily left over their rubbish in anywhere such as corridor or entrance to the lift. Also heard tat snatch thief can easily access to resident's house easily....also inside every lifts, the 4 sides walls look very ugly.....no hygience at all....i dun think so tat d SB property market value will become higher....let open the eyes n look at d reality.....
May 20, 2009 at 9:42 PMUnknown: I agreed more efforts is deem required to improve the living enviroment at Serina Bay. As the owners, my family members as including myself r feel not comfortable for all these.
June 27, 2009 at 6:10 AMUnknown: im from kl, moving to penang real soon, currently doin some property search.i've heard bout serina bay n when thru all tis comment.wat is the current situation now, i mean all d problems.is SD really overvalued? hows really d environment there at SD?
June 27, 2009 at 6:12 AMUnknown: please kindly comment, tq.
June 27, 2009 at 8:33 AMJimmy: From what I heard and see, the SB demand is still very high, property agent got buyer but no or less seller. Let's make a simple comparison of Apartments in that locations, Serina Bay (900+ sqf) RM170k+, Ocean View (850+ sqf) RM200k+, The Spring (900+ sqf) RM300k+, Summer Place (1000sqf+) RM300k+. As we can see, Serina Bay still standing at a very affordable level, with maintenance of RM110, we get almost full condo facilities, and reasonable rental from RM600-RM800. I visited a friend there not long a go, his unit has nice sea view and I don't see there are rubbish every where, instead I see a cleaner cleaning at the corridor. The lift is still messy as I think renovation is still going on everyday, this apartment just got OC last year. Best if one who is interested in this apartment, go and take a look by yourself. Just my small opinion. :)
June 27, 2009 at 1:59 PMUnknown: very well, thanks 4 ur opinion jimmy. one have to consider the future of the property, the secondhand value.do we see bright future at serina bay?
June 27, 2009 at 7:05 PMkamel: Jimmy...i thought that all the while SB was 700 sqf. How you get the 900sqf ? Just curious.
June 27, 2009 at 8:37 PMJimmy: Every unit has got an extra 200sqf (roughly) in front, can be extended to 900 sqf. Just need to knock down one wall. Payment for 700sqf but you get 200 sqf extra, quite worth it. :)
June 29, 2009 at 8:00 PMroland: hai mr chong i feel if v own our home with our creative design so that v feel very satified enjoy our enviromennt home.....tanks 4 giving me a little time 2 contribute my feeling
January 1, 2010 at 9:45 AMH. C.: To people in Serina Bay, something amiss here since last month.

1) Toll gate at the main entrance and parking? It doesnt require touch card and everybody still can go in and out. What's the point in implementing it? Waste of Serinian's money (service fee, maintenance fee, etc).

2) New car sticker and we need to pay RM 10 for it? Something really not right here. Why need to pay for new sticker if we already have old sticker? Should replace for free.

3) Touch card poor quality. The warranty is only 1 month? I heard many residents complaint that the touch card can be easily damaged.

I can't help to feel that there's a money scam here. Perhaps the management and commitee can explain this.
January 7, 2010 at 12:28 AMVincent: To All Residents of Serina Bay,

Complaint for Traffic Flow Change and Gate C Closured.

I strongly disagreed for Gate C closured and the traffic flow changed. The changes does not improve the traffic flow neither enhancer the security but merely caused unnecessary inconvenient to residents. My explanation as below:-

1.The closured of Gate C has caused inconvenient to residents especially for block C. The small lane from main entrance pass by the shops to the shaded car park is narrow; the turning is a blind spot and always block by the motorcycle parked.

2.The one way traffic flow caused inconvenient to resident from block C who enter to the apartment by the main entrance and thereafter turning one big round passing over the entire building and exit at main entrance / exit again.

3.The one way traffic flow does not improve the traffic but make things worse. The initially traffic flow was well design for convenient and to mitigate the traffic congestion with separate entry / exit point where located at main entrance, Gate B and Gate C for each block. The changes to one way traffic flow has caused overall traffic in congestion and bottle neck at the main entrance / exit especially during the peak hour.

4.The closured of Gate C rise up concern on security matters. That is no longer security guards patrolling at this area. Any outsider and motorcycles are now free to enter into the building without any control at all.

5. Why remove the access card system for multi level car park? Now any outsider can simply parking in side the multi level car park, this is worsen off than before.

Robert Bench Joint Management body is appointed to manage our property on behalf of all residents. Any decision shall always place the owner’s interest at priority and never jeopardize owner’s rights and benefits to enjoy all the facilities with convenience.

I strongly request the management reopen both Gate B and Gate C to mitigate the traffic flow. Both Gate B and Gate C shall re-design with two ways for entrance / exit point. The Enhanced one resident card system shall install and implement across all the entrance / exit point & multi level car park. To enhance the security, security guards shall be arrange to patrol all the entrance / exit point for 24 hour. alternatively more CCTV system shall be installed especially inside the lifts. Any car or motorcycles enter without sticker shall subject to verification and registration for better security control. Any unauthorized parking vehicles (car / motorcycles)shall subject to clamping.

Lastly, I strong request Robert Bench Joint Management publish all financial statement on notice boards by monthly basis and up to date. All collection and expanses details shall disclosure to public transparently. Mr. Soon have to ensure this!

All residents, please de not hesitates to channel your opinions and request to management for our property management improvement. Any wrong decision must be corrected. Is our property, our rights!

Regards,
Block C Resident
January 15, 2010 at 8:05 PMHuzaifah Magbool: Hi vincent,

Im a new resident of Serina Bay. Will be moving in a month or two. i share some of your concerns but i think the best way out is for us to have a frequent meeting among the residents to discuss arising issues. I was terrified to read a report of break ins at 24hrs guarded serina bay, this means somethings are not rightly done.

I agree with you, we as the residents should have more power in making decisions for our property. I suggest we call for a residents meeting soon & make it a monthly or bimonthly event.
Each of us must make it a point to attend the meeting.
January 29, 2010 at 1:39 AMUnknown: -Is a good location and wonderful sea view.
-Fantastic air flow.
-Very big space after extended (demi-D type).
-Love to stay here due to convenient traffic with Jelutong Express highway and Sungai pinang food court.
-Worth to invest as a HOME.

p/s: if wanna purchase pls remember to buy a unit with x2 lower multilevel car park and able to view seaview.

March 1, 2010 at 3:32 PMserinabayresidencecomplaint: My View In Problems Accours At Serina Bay Apartment Cause By 2009 JMB : As At 01.03.2010:

No Proper Authoriszation From Residence & Guidelines Or Job Schedule Lay Out Properly By JMB To The Management ( Robert Bench ) Inforcing It Through The Security Guards And Cleaning Services .

EXAMPLE 1: I Have been Parking Out For More Then 1 Months Now After JMB Enforces New Security Cards Excess But Stills I See People With No Excess Card Coming In With Just Honking Infront Of The Gate , Some Just Using Old Card To Excess By Saying The Card Have been Damage , Some Residence Demand It To Be open Because this Is thier House ,As For Me I Agreed This Is My House Why Cant I Enter This Is Not Residences Fault And not Security Guard Faults This Is JMB Faults In Implementing Something Importances Like this With Just Notifications Through Letter , No meeting With residences , If They Claims That They Have got the Residences Majority Vote , Thats Mean They needs 3/4 Of the Residence Onwer On S&P To Do this .
( Lets Say 1 Floor 10 Units X 23 Floor X 3 Blocks = Total Residences , They Needs 3/4 From That Total ).Do You Think They Got it

SO NOW IM PARKING IN BACK 01.03.2010

So IF THERES IS JMB READING THIS , THIS JUST FOR YOU GUZ INFO IM PARKING IN , AS LONG I DONT PARK AT OTHER PEOPLE PLACE I THINKS EVERY BODY HAPPY WITH IT .

March 1, 2010 at 4:24 PMserinabayresidencecomplaint: My View In Problems Accours At Serina Bay Apartment Cause By 2009 JMB : As At 01.03.2010:

Puchasing Done Without Proper Prosedures And Un Nessesary Used ( Wasted ), Not setting Priority right , In There Personals Interest ?...In Making Dessicions .

EXAMPLE 1 : As All Residences Knows We Have all Ready Have The old 4 Units Of Auto Gates At Multilevel Carpark , JMB Just Should Remove It 2 To The front Gate And 2 More At the Back Block A Gate And wideden The Enterence.

Why :

1. Save Cost On Buying New Ones That Now Cost More Than RM20K .

2. We Residence Dont Have To Buy New Cards Just Register Back So That The Old registrations Will be Bared .

3. Residences Allso Can Register Thier Cars No Plat And Car lot Plus Given A Car sticker & Moto Sticker For Guards Authorisezations Upon Doing The New Registartions .

EXAMPLE 2 : No Proper Procedures On Purchasing

1. NO Tender Board Commities For Purchase Over Then RM10K ( Instead Now They Split The Payment To Make Not Aware )

2. No Tender Boxe & Tender Notis Board For Submited Tender Display At Public Common area .( Instead Now Direct Nego )And Allso the Result Of The Tender That Wins Showned. ( Why Same Company Over again And Again Wins ?..)

EXAMPLE 3 : Not Setting Priority Right

1. Instead Of Putting Camera at the side of the new 4 gate , jmb should save the cost and put another version of the camera to install it inside our lifts all blocks , Why Do We needs Camare There , Does Guards Not enough Sometimes I feels Like in Prisons, Im In Tesco Gelugor Yesterday At level 1 I Come across a security company Promoting A speacialised scurity Camare for lifts and it it anti vandalisme can withstand 50KG of blow withou breaking it , then i was shock at th prices it is RM2++.00 Only Perunit But If we Buy More then 1 There Is Discounts And When I ask The Camera At Our Gate Models It Is More then RM200.00 So That Is Still Prices Without Qoutations , don't You think We Can Get cheaper ?...
