finally, breakthrough for water tank :)
finally, there's a breakthrough concerning the water tank, now we have all the MC bearers (namely chairman, vice chairman, treasurer & secretary) signed on the water tank installation & interest free loan agreements! this is a big step towards the installation of the 10 new water tanks at Vista Condo :)
we have forwarded the signed copies of agreement to the vendor few days ago, he also brought the installer to do the final viewing of the water tank site for their final planning for installing the water tanks, understand from them that the project should be carried out as planned earlier but they may want to suggest some better idea of how to maximize of the volume of the water tank at the ground floor, this will be brought to MC for them to consider.
now we are waiting for the vendor to channel in the money, RM45k for the existing water tank trade in & RM15 interest free loan, we expect the money will come in this coming week, then together with our saving of RM21k, it should make up to RM81k to be deposited into state gov't treasury dept as our part of 20% contribution for the project.
(just to recap, Vista Condo has been recognized by state gov't as LMC (low medium cost apartment) which enjoy the privilege of state gov't financial aid on those major repairing project like change main pipe, lift or water tanks, under the arrangement of 80% - 20%, state gov't give 80% & residents give 20%, as for the water tank project total cost is RM405K, our 20% contribution is RM81K)
we hope the project can be started at the end of September as the vendor need to order the part & material from his own supplier, if everything go smoothly then it may take 3 months to complete the installation, but if the weather not too friendly then need one or two months more...., for whatever situation it may be, MC will try our best to make sure there's no water supply interruption during the installation, really hope for the smooth ride :)
let's pray.....

confirmed deal? false hope?
again, we are given another opportunity to proceed with the water tank project, but will this time we can make it a confirmed deal or just another false hope like early June? where our saving then was sufficient for the project but last minute need to channel the money to replace the concealed under ground bomba pipe due to it's urgency.
after 2 months, now we are again in the right financial position to proceed with this project, and even closer than early June because the 2 agreements (water tank installation agreement & interest-free loan amount RM15K agreement) have been forwarded to us & already signed by most of the MC office bearers, we should wait for one more signature then vendor will channel in the money 60K (45k for advance payment for the old water tanks trade in & 15k for interest free loan) then together with our saving of 21K we should issue the banker's cheq amounting to 81K as 20% contribution from our side for the gov't to issue work order for the vendor to start the project.
after what happened in June where the project failed to proceed, so now we dare not to promise to our residents that the project will definitely start soon, still some uncertainties need to face, like will we get the complete office bearer signature? will all the office bearers agree with project? will there be another last minute urgent repair work need us to spend the money for it first? will gov't still wait for us after so many months after the approval has given? etc etc....
we should know the answer in this coming Sunday evening MC meeting, we do hope signatures will be complete & committee will have full agreement to proceed, shall this happen then we will quickly get the vendor to give us the 60K big cheq for us issue another banker's cheq 81K to the gov't, but will it happens that smoothly? hope so....

defaulters are the culprits!
recently we urge the management office to make sure they will put up the defaulters' list at the notice board, and they did it for 3 consecutive months already.
each time we look at the defaulters list, we thought it's quite disgusting, a bit strong term here, but then if we look the consequences of their irresponsibility in this area, we know that to be called disgusting is too light the term....
especially at the moment when the water tank project need to drag until now due to lack of fund as the result of their not-paying bad behavior, residents need to use those not-so-clean water to bath & wash their clothes & dishes, and even if some of resident don't have the water filter, then they got to drink from this water which may cause health problem, we really feel that it's quite disgusting.
(water tank project should be proceed soon as we have now managed to save enough fund after paid up the bomba pipe project, pending for MC approval this coming meeting)
we don't know what is in their mind, some defaulter actually are staying in Vista Condo too (some just rent their unit out to their tenants), in order to continue to live as debtors, their rather park their vehicle at the roadside but choose not to pay service charge, but when go check their units, you still see few aircond & astro were installed, we are not convinced that they are so poor until can't pay service charge.
we also notice that most of them are having their family members staying with them here in Vista Condo, and they spouse & kids also using the not-so-clean water for washing their stuffs, it's very selfish to let the family members to suffer the consequence of their irresponsibility.
of course it's definitely not fair for the good paymasters, because of the defaulters, they can't enjoy the better condition of the existing facilities, such as lift, water tank, car park, swimming pool, etc, sigh....!
defaulters, when are they going to wake up? at the end they still need to pay the outstanding service charge even with the interest when they sell their house or need to use their car park (or later on when we got enough money to install the lift T&G system), their irresponsible behavior have created harm for everyone, include themselves & their family but benefits nobody.
hope they realize this.
