it's about priority for the safety & security matters

last post created some good discussions, well, some residents do write in the not-so-friendly manner, but in MC, we try not to get our ourselves to be effected emotionally like be upset or angry by the comments, by rather to focus on the issues the persons try to bring to our attention, & do our best to address it.

we do hear the voices of getting the road (or parking area) repaired, so now we are talking to vendor to get those broken surface patched, but as we said earlier, due to limitation of fund, it's quite hard to tar all the broken areas, but rather to choose the few areas which are more serious, the others will be covered later.

it's about priority, really.

we always remind ourselves to give priority to those safety & security related matter, so in the past 6 to 12 months, actually some big portion of money have been channeled to this area, but then we must say this are the "unseen" or "not-so-visible" as other thing like painting the wall, or install new office which can be easily detected by residents, by then many times those "unseen" things actually are more important than "visible" thing, especially when it touches the safety & security matter.

perhaps it's good for us to update our residents what are the safety & security related matters which have been covered recently...

upgrade the fire fighting facilities, we had sent both duty pump & jockey pump for service & repair, replaced mechanical seal & high power blower; than at the bomba riser room, new hose reel, valves be installed, with those necessary servicing, last month we entered the service contract with one of the prominent vendor (Pentatronics) to maintain our fire fighting facilities, for which they will inspect our equipment on the regular basis & advice us what need to be done pertaining to this area.

new lift alarm indicators have been installed at the guard house last week, it will alert the guard with both light & sound should anyone stranded in the lift, of course the person must press the alarm button inside the lift in order for this both light & sound devices be triggered in the guard house. we hope by having this facility it will help the stranded person to be rescued sooner than before.

abt half a year ago we decided to hire the new guard company, it's also part of effort to upgrade the security service here, our observation is the current guard company are doing better job than the other one, but of course it's always rooms for improvement..., in fact our neighboring (not Villa) apartment also switched to this company recently after their committee members joined one of our function few months ago & impressed by the way our guard manned the entrance :)

we are at the moment servicing (or replacing if it's needed) all the water pumps for domestic supply to all the unit in blk J and K, total are 4 pumps, one had been done in blk k, will do the blk j soon, after that will also enter contract with vendor for maintaining & servicing the pump on regular basis, this is to make sure the pumps will continue to serve all the unit without sudden malfunctioning, hopefully.

well, other facilities like CCTV, motorbike T&G barrier are also for the same purpose, we do see some good improvement after installed these, but we can't afford to feel proud of that, rather we choose to be cautious, focus on the further improvement which will make Vista safer place to stay.

thanks.

Hi MC,
first of all i would like to say sorry because inside the lift, my small kid press calling alarm button, i thought is not function but is working, so our guard come and wait at ground floor. I said sorry.

I feel very happy with our guard so fast and rescue me even thou not stuck. Good system.

Hi MC,
good to see the upgrading on the touch & go system, so next time no need to come down my window. It's really good system anyway small request, why not you all start to install touch card inside the lift, it's really workable. Now some time i can see our guard still open gate for unpaid service charge. If you guys install inside lift, sure & 100% can collect service charge.

Suggestion only.
hope to see soon

hi,

thanks for the suggestion.

we do monitor/observe those apartments which had installed T&G for lifts since last year, so far success & failure rate abt 50-50%, one interesting thing is that most of the successful cases are those new projects which their lifts still new, but some failure cases mostly having old lifts which are in bad shape..., few projects stopped their T&G for lifts because some residents out of frustration (old lifts always break down, they stuck inside) hit the T&G panel in the lift, then ended up no more T&G as they don't hv finance to repair it or the management don't feel residents are ready for lift T&G system....

for our place, we still studying all the pros & cons for the T&G for lift, i think at the moment we need to stabilize blk k lifts first then hopefully soon we will have confident to install this system for vista (with the approval from residents in EGM).

thanks.

hi,

thank for the info,

1) bike repair, last time we saw it abt 4 days ago, we immediately alert the guard & he went there to stop them, we also inform the guard boss to tell his staff to be more watchful on this matter. Anywhere pls also immediate inform the guard if it happen again.

2) renovation debris at blk k ground floor, warning has been given to the owner, will deduct the deposit if he still refuse to remove it. will bill the owner the cost if we need to get lorry to transport the debris away.

thanks again.
