Comment from a resident

From Mr Kuan

RA, if you need more support, do something!! "Promote" yourselves to the Puteri 11 community. I know its never eazy, but hey, you guys were elected. So, do something about it. Waiting for IOI and MPSJ is just a waste of time as far as i know. BTW, if you guys are concern on certain issues, dont just post on the blog.

Pls understand that there are owners out there that do not access your blog or even know how to (not all are computer literate) access info and are in the dark as to what the RA is doing all these while, me included. So, if you guys are serious about this issue, try to inform everyone as effectively as possible. Probably, as a suggestion, you may want to organise a meet the residents session every fortnight, etc. I believe you will slowly gain more crowd and support eventually. But making the 1st move (ACT) is more important.

Not just blah...blah... in the blog. Honestly, who cares what was in the blog!! I read, if i feel like commenting, i type, then..... what??? Thats the fact isn't it. Honestly, i dont even know who are you guys (committees). Best part, you guys never take the opportunity during the mooncake gathering to introduce yourself and to raise this issue. There were nearly 200 adults and children came. Dont you think it was a good platform to intro the committees and raise some issues. Tell the owners, they will then share with their neighbours, so on... At least you get to send some message across.

What happen to the appointment of security firm? Whats the updates? Dont get me wrong, im not here to critisize the RA. I will support, definitely, for the equal benefits to myself and the rest of the owners. But, there must be some effort and sacrifice. Work out something to BUILD the community FIRST. How much support do you think you can get via this blog??

Dear Mr Kuan,

Thank you for your comments. I think they are fair and constructive. We truly welcome people like you who can contribute to the RA. Please except our invitation to be a member of the Puteri 11 RA Committee. How can I get in touch with you?

For a start, I would like to provide here my brief explanations to your comments so you are aware of what is happening.

1. Yes, the RA need to promote itself to the Puteri 11 residents. Some works have been done but these were not effectively communicated across to the residents.
2. It was difficult to get people to serve in the RA Committee, so we manage to persuade some volunteers, and everyone who stood for elections were elected to the Committee.
3. It is not always a waste of time waiting for IOI and MPSJ to take actions. We do get some things done through them over the past one year.
4. Blog is just one of the avenue we communicate. It is inexpensive and fast and is effective to a certain extent.
5. The RA Committee held a number of meetings over the past one year including one AGM. The residents were invited to all our meetings but very few showed up.
6. Agreed the RA should have promoted itself during the moon cake festival as you have mentioned.
7. We have received proposals from two Security companies and are evaluating them. A meeting with residents is being planned for on Saturday afternoon on 9th October 2010.

Mr Kuan, we would like you to come forward and share your experience with us.

You can contact me anytime on my h/p 016-2323480, email: tuncheng@hotmail.com.

Hope to hear from you very soon.

Thanks and regards,

Chiam Tun Cheng
Puter 11 RA Chairman
