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.

Discussion with MCA Cheras branch







We seek assistance from MCA Cheras branch on issues facing our Taman such as safety and security issues and how to conduct a general meeting involving all residents of Taman Desa Aman.

With the advice from MCA we quickly form a working team involved mostly Jln 10 and 12's residents to help distributing flyers and broadcast the meeting to everyone on 1st August 2010. In addition, MCA Cheras's vice chairman Mr. Ng also sponsored 2 banners, while Mr. John promised to invite chiefs of PDRM Cheras and press, and coordinate with DBKL for rental of Outdoor Canopies, table and chairs. Big thanks to them!
