Long queue to register for the meeting. |
The Komplek
Suria Kinara JMB was officially formed on the 15 April 2012. The owner turnout for
the JMB formation general meeting was
beyond expectation. There was a long queue to register for the meeting,
resulting in delay. Eventually, some owners did not register themselves and lost
the right to vote. There were about 300 owners attending the meeting, with 194
owners eligible to vote. The rest of the attendees could not vote due to arrear
in maintenance fees.

A section of the attendees |
The developer, Sentosa Restu Sdn. Bhd's representative (Mr. Gan Keng Bing) was also present but he did not come with a proper mandate from the company.
Although the
COB mentioned that the JMB certificate will be issued in a week’s time, the
certificate was issued on the 26 April 2012 and received by the JMB on the 4
May 2012. The delay did cause some anxiety among JMB committee members,
miscommunication, confusion and consequential problems.
The JMB bank account could not be
opened without the COB certificate.
The JMB bank accounts should be ready
by the coming week. A notice will issued jointly by the JMB and the management
company. Henceforth, I appeal to all owners to pay up all the arrears to enable
the JMB and the management company to function properly. Cheques for the
payment to JMB should be in the name of “JMB Kompleks Suria Kinrara”.
In the interim, receipt for your payment will
be issued by Subang Perdana Services Sdn. Bhd. Please keep all your receipts.
When other
options or modes of payments are available in the near future, cash payment
should be discouraged. This is to minimize the risk associated with cash. JMB
also encourage owners to pay by cheques for better accountability and control.
The JMB
committee had three meetings since the formation. We met every weeks since 15
April 2012. There was a host of issues and challenges in hand. The odds were
beyond our anticipation. FFMS did not extend their full co-operation in the
hand over, despite advice by the COB and given two-week time frame. Not only the documents are incomplete, not a single sen is handed over to the JMB, up to this point in time.
What should
the JMB and the owners of Komplek Suria Kinrara do? How to get all the monies
belonging to us? How to get all the documents belonging to us? Where has the
Sinking Fund gone to? How to deal with the legal issues of FFMS’s service
providers and suppliers? How to determine the legality of the
contract/agreement and the debts between FFMS and their suppliers? These are
some of the questions raised and the mammoth challenges of the JMB and the new management company, Subang Perdana Services Sdn. Bhd.
The
immediate task of JMB is to ensure the services to owners remain uninterrupted
and enhance in the near future. But can the JMB function without money?
Legal action
is required to pursue and recover monies and documents from FFMS and all other
related parties. Legal services need money. Can the JMB and the owners afford
this?
JMB Certificate - JMB Kompleks Suria Kinrara is now a legal entity. |
Rest assure
that the JMB will be transparent and accountable to the owners.
