Connaught Avenue - Another Project by Akisama

Connought Avenue - This is another project by Akisama, the same developer that did Dynasty Garden Condominium and Kuchai Avenue Service Apartment.

Price starts from RM180,500 with built up of 950 sqft. Having 3 rooms and 2 bathrooms, i think the concept is not much different from Kuchai Avenue. Elevated park with swimming pool is synonymous with the previous development of theirs. So you can also expect good security and maintenance i pressume.

As for location, it's a mix of opinion. Some says the 200m distance from future LRT is a good investment while others don't really prefer (prejudice?) Cheras. Whatever the reason is, the news is that the first of the 2 blocks service apartments has been fully booked.

For me, it's more for investment rather than own stay. But then again, what sort of return are we talking about? Will it reach as high return as in Dynasty Garden? Can it reach between 30-40% return?

For more info, please visit Akisama website here.

Income Tax Month

Don't forget to submit your income tax form. The due is 30th April 2009. Be a good citizen. Forget about being 1st or 2nd class citizen. You can visit IRB website to download the form or to make life easy, just submit your form online via e-filing.

By the way, some said 90% of tax payers are Chinese. Is that true? Duh...

Parking Outside - Is it worth to save RM3 per day?

Row of cars parking outside DG compound.

Annoying busses parked along DG compound.

How safe is to park your car outside the compound of DG condo? Or rather, how dangerous is to park your car outside the compound of DG condo?

Well, as far as DG Blog is concerned, there has been no cases of theft yet BUT there have been cases where the car window was broken and the belongings inside the car was taken away. But then again, why risk and expose oneself to such crime waiting to happen?

Most residents who parked outside obviously has more cars than car park to accomodate all of them. So the cheapest way is to park outside. Setback? Risk to theft, rain, hot sun, far walking distance, not be able to find a space, etc. Rental of the car park is generally low. The so called in house agent for instance rent out each car park for RM100 per month. That's like RM3 per day for a covered car park with cctv security and card access system. So guys, for those who park outside, please think again. Is it worth to save RM3 per day?

Gymnasium - How Often Do You exercise?

One of the residents is running on the treadmill in the gymnasium.

The park is also a popular place for residents to jog or walk.

Typical Malaysian will always find reasons not to exercise. Blame it on the small gym is one of the easier way to lie to oneself. The fact is that the gym is hardly utilise by the residents.

No doubt the gym equipment is not as comprehensive as California Wow or Fitness First, but there are basic equipment for residents to use. Perhaps the reason is because DG gym has no muscular men or fit and slim ladies? Those uncles and aunties also need to exercise, can't stop them. We are all DG family.

Assessment and Quit Rent

Assessment and Quit Rent (cukai pintu and cukai tanah) bills have been issued by the management. Suggest all the owners to check their letter box and pay on time.

Letter Box - How to get rid of junkmail?

Letter box area - notice the junk mails have been thrown to the floor.

No one can deny the fact that it is annoying to see those junk mails in the letter box. How can one overcome this? Short term solution is to throw it to the floor because the cleaner will clean it the next day. Is that so? Come on guys, we are civilised residents and we don't do that. Please throw it at the litter bin.

But then again, how on earth the junk mails end up at our letter box? Is it done by Mr Postman? Definitely not. As a matter of fact, the maintenance staff have been distributing our letters to each letter box, the job which supposed to be done by Pos Malaysia postman. Talking about Malaysia Boleh attitude!

So who is the culprit that put all these junk mails into our letter box and who allow them to enter DG? Why does management allow them to enter and distribute junk mails? There's a cctv and it's so easy to catch the culprit. Why no action taken? Is someone getting commission? Smell fishy here.

By the way, who is the manager of the management office? Please, we want to hear from you.
