Why form a Residents Association (RA)?

In today's challenging living environment many housing estates today have their own Residents Association (RA). No matter whether the housing estate is big or small, it comprises a community who share the same common areas, roads, parks and recreational facilities. With these shared facilities they also share the same interest and responsibility of taking care of everyone by coming together and forming a Residents Association, to make sure their interest are protected.

What is the advantage of a Residents Association?
1. Work together to fight neighbourhood crimes such as snatch thieves, burglaries and break-ins.
2. Have an advantage in working closely with the developer and authorities, to look after neighbourhood interests.
3. Act as a watchdog for the community.
4. Have a cohesive voice in the interest of the community.
5. A contact point to serve as a communication centre among neighbours.
6. Share resources and ideas to maintain or improve the community, cleanliness and security.
7. Increase the value of the property by developing a safe and friendly neighbourhood.
8. Volunteer for a good cause towards an enjoyable life in the community.

Another robbery case:

Another case happened in PJ:

"Last Friday my fren semi D around 2.30pm. Only MIL & baby at home. Baby is sleeping. MIL taking clothes out to dry, phone rang & she run back to take the call. 3 Indians jump over the concrete wall & enter as well. MIL saw them & scream, straight kena whack in the face & head. 2 Indian drag her to kitchen & point her with Rambo knife say if she dont keep shut up will stab her. The man ready to get some wire to tied her & tape her mouth but during all these the phone is still ON. The person on the other side actually heard her scream, she is MIL sister. Thinking it must be something bad she quickly drive over & rang the door bell.

Hearing the doorbell the indians panic & rush out. MIL manage to press the autogate to allow her sister to come in. On her way in she bump into the indians but luckily they just run off with my fren wrist watch.

MIL is crying & face is swollen. Lucky baby is fast asleep during the ordeal, just never know what the indian will do to him if on the way out they saw him... it wud be terrible if they snatch him & escape..

They actually jump from neighbor side which at that time is out.
Polis report is made, only the patrol car arrive. The family is in shock.

Overall, thank god nothing really serious happen to them. The MIL will shiver & cry even yesterday. "
