Maid sneaking out in the early morning?

An incident believed to be the Indonesian maid of one of our residents (Mr. Thomas Wong, 21, Jln. Kenyalang 11/4C) sneaking out of the house early in the morning and returning back about an hour an a half later caught the attention of our security guard who went to investigate and found the person climbing over Mr. Thomas Wong's fence and entering his house through the kitchen door.

Below is the image taken from a CCTV recording of the whole incident.

At around 2.42 am in the morning of 30 Aug 2011, the person with a towel or some kind of clothing covering her head (believed to be the Indonesian maid of Mr. Thomas Wong) was seen leaving his house here to go and meet someone (possibly the construction site as she did not pass by the security gate/checkpoint)

 At around 4.23 am, the person(maid) was seen passing by my house to return back to Mr. Wong's house.

However one of our security guard spotted the maid at a distance and followed her back. She was seen climbing over Mr. Wong's fence to get into his house.  He then went to Mr. Thomas's house to ring his door bell to alert him, but the doorbell was out of order (not working).

 Both the security guards came over to my house. One of the security guard (En. Ajak) then called me on my handphone at around 5.10 am to wake me up to inform me of the suspicious character seen climbing over the fence of Mr. Thomas.

I then called Mr. Thomas Wong to inform him of the suspicious character seen climbing over his fence as reported by the security guard (En. Ajak).

He then called the Kota Damansara police station to send someone over to investigate.

The police car arrived and Mr. Thomas replayed his CCTV footage over the incident. From the CCTV recordings, it was clear that his maid was seen leaving the house through his kitchen at around that time (2.42 am). Since there was no forced entry into his house, the police deduced that it must have been his maid and not any outside intruder entering his house.

A near house break-In averted!

On 2011 August 27, around 6am in the morning. one of our  neighbours Mr. Phillip (3, Jln. Kenyalang 11/4C) suspected someone walking on his roof. He heard footsteps, so to make sure what he was hearing was correct, he shouted out loud and it shocked the person on the roof, as he/she jumped to the water storage tank area. Then he heard footsteps running on the roof again. He sounded the alarm and went out to check. The security guard came over, and he explained what had happened. We hope residents of Bayu Perdana 2  would take caution and be on the alert!!! (Taken from comment sent)

If anyone suspects any suspicious character in our vicinity, we should immediately sound the house alarm if we have one, or else sound the car alarm to frighten away the would-be intruder. Immediately call our Security Guard on his handphone (En. Mahmood H/p : 014-642 3023 or En. Ajak H/p : 010-246 6598) or better still we can call the nearest Balai Polis Kota Damansara at 03-6142 1222. Ask the Polis Station to send a patrol car to check out the suspicious chararter or would-be intruder. Remember we (the Rakyat) are paying the salary of the Policeman, so they are abliged to respond to our calls.

Daytime Security for Hari Raya Season

The Committee Members have all agreed to hire 1 no. of security guard to provide security services from 7.00 am to 7.00 pm for the Hari Raya season starting from Friday 26th August 2011 until Sunday 4th Sept. 2011 (10 days period). Thus we will have round the clock security services for 10 days for the Hari Raya season to prevent any untoward break-ins or roberries. We think the little balance from our security collection will be enough to pay for this daytime security services without having to collect any additional fees from all residents.


We hope that each and every residents will help one another to keep a watchful eye for those paying residents who will be going outstation or 'balik kampung' during this Hari Raya season.

Google Map Layout Showing Houses Paying & Not Paying for Security Fees

The above Google Map indicates the Bayu Perdana 2 Residents' House Nos. which pay for the security fees as well as those who do not pay or are unwilling to pay for security fees.

The security fees per month at the moment (as of  May 2011 onwards) is RM 130/month (previously it was RM 150/month) and residents are requested to pay 3 months in advance to minimise the collection rounds which Committee Members have to engage in the collection of security fees.

It is worth noting that since our Guarded Neighbourhood Scheme started as of 1 November 2010 with the hiring of security services for 2 security guards for 12-hourly night security patrol (from 7.00 pm to 7.00 am), there has never been any untowards incidents such as robberies or house break-ins. Thus each and everyone of the residents have been able to sleep peacefully without any fears.

The question now is 'Is it fair that 31 residents are paying for the security and well-being of all the 41 houses in our neighbourhood?' Of course, we all know that we cant force everyone to pay up but we know that we all live in a neighbourhood and community where everyone should contribute to the well-being and security of our neighbourhood right? What it boils down to is that the 31 nos. of paying residents are paying RM 130.00 each month for the well-being and security of all the 41 nos. of houses in our neighbourhood.

3 nos. of car -stickers  have been issued to each paying houses for the security guards to identify which are paying residents. Non-paying residents will not be prevented from entering the security barrier at the entrance but they will be required to open the barriers themselves as the guards are instructed not to provide any services to these non paying residents. They have been enjoying free security all these while at the expense of paying residents. It is hope that if all the occupied residents of the 41 houses pay up their dues, we might be able to reduce the security fees to around RM 90.00/month.

Our Committee Members have had 2 meeting with Bayu Perdana 1 Committee Members over the setting up of a joint Guarded and Gated neighbourhood scheme, but so far they have not been receptive to the suggestion and has imposed a number of conditions before agreeing to our suggestion. We hope to be able to have another round of discussions with them again after Hari Raya to make it a viable proposition to jointly write to the developer to build a joint guard house at Jalan Kenyalang 11/4 for both Bayu Perdana 1 & 2 residents and also the provision of including the new 23 bungalow houses scheme being built next to us.

We will update our residents when our endeavours to this end bears any fruits. Keep tuning in to this website until then!

Another Snatch Thief Incident

On 6th August, one of our new would-be neighbour (No. 19, Jln. Kenyalang 11/4C) became the victim of a snatch thief incident. In this incident, she had just came back into her new house at around 3.42 pm and was inside her house. However, at about 3.52 pm, a motorcyclist came by her house to tell her that he is sending something to her house. She was puzzled and called her husband on the telephone to check whether he is aware of what this motorcyclist is talking about. When she passed her handphone over to the motorcyclist to talk to her husband on the telephone, the motorcyclist snatch the handphone away and sped off on his motorcycle.

The above is a screen capture of the motorcyclist coming over to her house. We hope that everyone in our neighbourhood will be on the alert for any motorcyclist or suspicious character using this same trick. Please be on the lookout for any suspicious guy and if in doubt, please to do not hesitate to call the Police Station in Kota Damansara (Tel : 03-6142 1222) to check out any suspicious character loitering aroing our neighbourhood or outside your house. They will be obligated to check out the situation.
