Want to lose some weight?

BUTTERWORTH: Some 2,000 dwellers of a 21-storey block of Taman Teluk Indah flats in Prai Jaya had to walk up and down the building when electricity supply was cut to the lifts since Wednesday because the bill was not paid. The electricity cut affected only the lifts and common areas of Block D1 and not the units as the dwellers had paid their individual bills. And when the main water tank became empty – because the pumps were not working after the electricity cut – the residents had to carry pails of water obtained from a neighbouring block.

Strata Title issue has long been haunting Malaysian property industry.

Basically, there are 2 main SEPERATE problems and they are in 'circular' ie. A is blaming B, B is blaming A:-

  1. Most Morons (ie. residents of an apartment) do NOT pay their service charge. The biggest problem are those units which are NOT occupied. You can cut the electricity supply of that unit (this is illegal btw), but they fuck care.
  2. Property Pig Developers do not apply for strata title until the cow comes home and lays a few eggs (ie. cow does not lay egg). And most of the time, these developers do not do a good job in maintaining the apartments before the strata title comes out.

Morons blame the Pig for not managing the property well. Pig claims that you dont pay me money, I how manage the damn thing. Then morons say you dont manage well, why I pay. The Pig says I have no money how to manage. Morons say you manage first then I pay. Pig says you pay first then I manage ..... u get the idea???

According to the Strata title Act Amendments, it is an offence for the developers pig if they do not apply for strata title within, I think, 6 months. They can go to jail.

But currently, it is NOT an offense for the Moron residents IF they do not pay their Service Charge (My mum calls this 'man-tay-ning') (sorry mum). But I believe they are passing the bill in the next parlimen (how to spell this ha?) to make this an offense. I hope the MPs are brave enough to send these morons to jail.

To me, you can pass 1,057,999 bills or come out with another 'Punishing-Pigs-Morons-Strata-Title-Act-2004'...the questions which i have is, WHO THE HECK IS IMPLEMENTING THE ACT????

WHO??? George Bush ah?
