History and Background

The residental area was originally sold as Pusat Bandar Putra Permai, Phase 3A and Phase 3B. The developer is Tujuan Ehsan, a subsidiary of Equine Capital Bhd. Phase 3A consists of Jalan 4/2, Jalan 4/4, Jalan 4/6 and Jalan 4/8 and the children's playground. Phase 3B consists of Jalan 4/1, Jalan 4/3, Jalan 4/5 and Jalan 4/7. The area was completed and the keys handed over at around April 2006.

Security service was originally part of the S & P agreement. The service would be provided for a period of 2 years after the keys were handed over. The security company was Duta Security Sdn Bhd, another subsidiary of Equine Capital Bhd. However if one to scrutinize the agreement, one would notice that the service was actually paid separatedly from the S & P agreement. So all buyers of the house in the area had indirectly agreed to and paid for the service in the first place.

Two years has passed since the keys were handed over. There was a notice to all house owners that the security service will be terminated. To extend the service would incur additional costs. An emergency meeting was called and a Sponsor Committee (Jawatankuasa Penaja) was formed to oversee the extension of the security service for the benefits of the residents.

There was a period of time when there was no security service at all, and that was a cause for concern among the residents. The utmost priority at that time was to quickly bring back in the security service to avoid any untoward incidents. Fortunately the committee was able to restore the security service starting from 22nd April 2008.

Even then, the service was very lacking. The service needs money, and not all residents were willing to part with their hard-earned money for something they felt that they have not paid in the last 2 years. (When in actual fact, they already did when they bought the house in the first place) Furthermore there was a lot of vacant houses at that time. The first month of the security service was only a 12-hour per day service, without the CCTV.

Fortunately the 12-hour service only last for about 1 month. Eventually the committee did make enough collection to cover for a 24-hour service, but still without the CCTV. The service continued until this day.
