few news to share with our beloved residents,
1) we have received few reports that snake abt 5ft to 6ft long has been seen at the swimming pool & the rental parking area since few months ago, suspected it is from the jungle area near the Jalan Paya Terubong, so besides putting up notice to alert our residents, we also putting the netting at the fence facing the trees to prevent it from crawling in (still in the process of doing it), at the same time putting up one more spotlight at the rental area to make the place brighter, so that our residents can have better view on those object on the floor especially during night time, as one report says that snake was seen at night.
2) there was a commotion on Friday late night, abt 12 midnight at the swimming pool, according to security guard's report a young man with long jean but no shirt, looks not in this usual self, forced the grill door of the pool open & jump into the pool & start singing very loud, many residents (those unit facing the pool) were woke up by this, it lasted for awhile until his family members (also our resident) managed to convince him to come out from the pool & bring him home, now the security guard company & the management are dealing with the matter, got to make sure he won't cause any trouble to other peoples in Vista Condo.
3) for those who intend to sell their unit, some little good news is, we have came to know certain unit have managed to sell at abt 300K, while most of the unit sell at 260K to 280K, except those poorly maintained unit may sell below 250K, so we hope can get the building painted by end of year, then the property price can easily climb over 300K barrier.
4) we are still trying to make the appointment for our lawyer to meet up with state EXCO YB Jagdeep Singh for our sinking fund matter, can't get it done for past few weeks because state assembly restarted & besides attended the meeting, he also busy with his regular stuff, so we will try again in August, & hopefully through his help, we will see breakthrough in this matter, God pls help us......
thanks.

looking forward to the better lifts :)
so the vendor did what they promised, started the upgrading works on Monday, which until today, it's abt one week they have been working on it.
most of the works are done in the lift motor room at the top floor on our building, but also not small portion of it need to be done in the workshop, after assembled/soldered/welded only that they move it to our motor room for further works.
we hope they will honor another pledge they have made, to complete the upgrade by Hari Raya, we pray & hope that they will accomplish this mission, which we believe at the moment still on the right track, as far as the schedule is concerned.
well, not everything were so smooth so far, understand that on Wednesday night, the only lift which still running also go on strike, breakdown for abt an hour, but vendor managed to rectify the problem & the lift is running again, for that we have told vendor to send extra hand to stand by at our place daily, in between 6pm to 9pm, so that if it happen again, the problem can be attended immediately.
one final thing, we would like to clarify that this is "upgrading" process, but not changing to new lift, which from the beginning we have told residents that it's UPGRADING, so hope that after the upgrading is completed later, residents won't get disappointed why it's not completely new.
but the upgraded lifts will be as good as new one, in regards of it's reliability & performance, to make it easier for our residents to understand this, imagine an old car, we change for it the new engine, new air cond, new seat, new shaft, etc almost everything except the chassis, we weld it, patch it, & spray the new paint on it, so this old car will be in very excellent condition, like new :)
thanks.

the long wait is abt to over...
right, the long is abt to over, it's a great relieve too, for us in MC.
on Wednesday, the parts for blk K lift upgrading has arrived, quite a rush job because we only got the confirmation on Tuesday that the parts are coming, so to arrange for forklift, get the 2 store room ready to keep the parts, contact odd job worker to stand by as we heard the total weight is abt 800kg....
so lastly, it's all done at abt 1pm of Wednesday, vendor did another round of verification to make sure all these parts are according to the order he made to their supplier from Korea, then lock them up in the store room, yeah, we also purposely installed 3 extra locks to make sure parts are safe kept inside, consider how hard we tried to get this project approved, so need to make sure parts won't kena curi before installation :)
the vendor going to start work on Monday, round a clock type, so we can expect them to do the installation even in the night time, as it will be a better time to do because it will create lesser interruption to the residents who are using the lifts. of course during the upgrading, only one lift is available for blk K residents, so pls bear with the situation, he estimated the whole job can be finished before Raya, we really hope so...
to play safe, we do request the vendor to arrange at least 1 technician to stand by for Vista Condo 24 hours a day, this is to make sure that if (for in case) the only lift which supporting the residents is down, then they can attend to it immediately so our blk K residents not need to climb staircase, but we are praying that the whole upgrading process will be smooth one.
God pls help us.... :)

new guard company starting this month
anyone notice new guards have taken over the guard post?
this is the 6th security guard company we are using since year 2009, which means every year we almost changed twice the guard company for vista condo, it's very high turn around!
just for record, in the past 3 & the 1/2 years, lift vendor change once, management changed once, electrician once, pool vendor twice, it's very normal, but how come security guard changed so many times?
and in fact, this new company is the first company we hired in 2009, but the 2nd year they terminated themselves due to some payment issue with the JMB then, but this time we hired them as guard again, well, main reason is their strong back up.
in the past we did change guard company due to different reason, for both good & bad reasons, at least twice we forced to changed guard company because guard was missing during his duty, also guard get drunk when came to work, worst one is new company took over 2 days then never send any guard anymore, without telling us :(
but this time the reason to change, is aiming for improvement, the previous guard company did "above average" job, generally they were OK, even though we did once awhile heard residents complained that some times they simply opened for ppl without car (or those whose card already barred), we do missed the Chinese guard by the name of Ah Keong, he is an excellent guard, but too bad due to health reason he need to stop working, but anyway we are now once awhile meet him for a cup of coffee :)
we welcome residents to feedback to us your opinion & observation for the new guard company, we did take into consideration those opinions given by our residents, and in fact more than half of the changes of companies as mentioned above were triggered by residents' feedback, and we must agree that it has brought improvement.
thanks.
