To All Subscriber Residents,
All you are aware, pursuant to the submission of
the above proposal to Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur (“DBKL”) and other relevant
authorities in August 2012, we had subsequently put in place several barricades
(12), warning cones (13) and one (1) iron sign board at Jalan Desa Aman (“Post
2”) effective 01st September 2012.
However, to our surprise on Tuesday
morning of 11th
September 2012 , the Enforcement Unit of DBKL came without
notice to confiscate all the above-mentioned items into their truck, and
without even informing any of the Committee members.
This was done despite the efforts by
several Committee members who had earlier on 5th of September 2012
obtained an assurance from the DBKL Cawangan Seputeh that the summons will be
channeled to the respective unit for cancellation since the Association had
submitted the proposal for permanent closure. For your information, the summons
was issued by a new Supervisor who just reported for duty the day before to
Cawangan Seputeh and apparently the matter was not informed to higher
authority. The Cawangan Seputeh DBKL Manager has confirmed that he was not
aware about the issuance notice of compound and summon.
On the same afternoon of 11 September,
several Committee members met up with the Director of Enforcement DBKL (Pengarah
Penguatkuasaan DBKL at his Jalan Tun Razak Office) to obtain clarification on
the confiscation. Apparently, it transpired that there were lots of mis-communication
between the various DBKL Units and “intervention” by various parties within our
Taman Desa neighbour-hood who hid behind anonymous identities to make public
complaints (so called “Aduan Awam”) on our Security Scheme and various
initiatives. It looks like they are having personal vendetta and interest to
see the scheme to collapse. Nevertheless, the Director agreed to cancel the
summons and to return forthwith the confiscated items to the Association, and
to make efforts to coordinate with the various DBKL Units in order to ensure
that this kind of incident will not happen again.
On Wednesday morning of 12th
September, DBKL returned the confiscated items to us, except for the iron sign
board for which we will make a claim against DBKL since we had photographic
evidence that their officers had loaded the same on the truck.
In order to minimize or even prevent
possible future attacks on our Security Scheme, we will be embarking on several
public relations and negotiation efforts with interested parties and higher
Authorities to ensure that the safety and security of the residents are given
utmost priorities. We genuinely believe that with better cooperation and
understanding from all stakeholders, we should be able to serve the interests
of community in the spirit of Muhibbah and a truly united 1Malaysia.
Should you have any enquiry, please
feel free to contact any of the Committee Members for a discussion.
