On 8 January 2011, PDCP held a handling over ceremony to the purchasers at PDCP's sales gallery in Batu Kawan.<br /><br />The guardhouse is still missing pending MPSP's approval. Only a temporary guard post is there. As the ready-built houses have been completed for some time, quite a number of defects can be seen while checking the units. One of the most obvious ones is the fences have already rusted in some parts. This certainly needs to be rectified by the developer.gtchyehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16483902492773694060noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7947178151067714169.post-8003962183401405942010-10-21T07:37:00.000-07:002010-10-21T08:27:09.610-07:00Latest Development as at 18 Oct 2010Went to PDC's office in Bayan Baru on Saturday, 18 October 2010.<br /><br />Was told that the expected date of handover is end-Nov 2010. I informed the lady by the name of Mary that I had enquired about the handover date since December 2009. I was given the date 'first half of 2010'. When that did not materialise, I called up again and was informed that the next expected handover date would be end of September 2010. Now it's end November 2010.<br /><br />Seems that everything is in the Project Manager's hand and they are waiting for the authorities for approval. Mary assured me that for handover, they would have to clean up the place and do some touch up when I told her that the whole place is overgrown with lallang and looks really bad like an abandoned project.<br /><br />On the guardhouse, no explanation was coming as to why it cannot be built yet. Seems like the Bayan Residence is suffering from the same fate. Only a temporary guard 'shed' and no OC.<br /><br />Shall keep our fingers crossed.gtchyehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16483902492773694060noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7947178151067714169.post-65962285841607580142010-02-25T23:22:00.000-08:002010-02-26T00:03:35.342-08:00Pictures taken on 22 Feb 2010The road from the main highway leading to the entrance of the Dedaun Project is finally tarred.<br /><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5442456967191320658" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 236px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_3cf9qBI8e7g/S4d9xrrJ2FI/AAAAAAAAALw/ZihvaybOEMU/s320/IMGA0458.JPG" border="0" />The entrance to the Dedaun Project.

However, he declined to reveal the names of the companies or other details of the agreement which he said would be unveiled in due course when things firmed up.</div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">He also said the state was not forking out any money but only allowing the companies to build the test track on state land.“The state government will not have to come up with a single sen for the project which will be borne by the companies. All that we are allowing them to do is to build the test track on state-owned land which we are not selling to them.</div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">“There has been no detailed discussion but they have been given a no-obligation letter by the state government. This is more of an exhibition or test track for the public to see for themselves and also for the state government to ascertain if they are capable of carrying out the monorail project.</div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">“But the state government is under no obligation to appoint any of them in the event that we decide to proceed with the monorail project (in the state). If that happens, these companies would also have to bid via a competitive tender for the same project,” Ramasamy said.</div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">He said the companies have the experience in either building or planning monorail systems.Ramasamy said both companies would also be investing tens of millions of ringgit to set up a plant either to assemble the cars or the tracks at the site either in Batu Kawan or Nibong Tebal.</div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">He did not discount the possibility of the companies setting up the plants to start production for the test tracks and other monorail components for the export market.</div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">“We are talking about an industry which involves millions of ringgit in investments. This is something that would benefit the state economically and since we do not have to come up with a single sen, we are allowing them to go ahead with the test track.</div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">“It will help us assess if the monorail is feasible or compatible for Penang and this is the best way for us to do it without having to spend money,” Ramasamy added.</div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">He said the test track was expected to be completed within a year.The Edge weekly had reported in October that the state has in principle given the green light to businessman Datuk Jeyakumar Varathan to build a monorail test track costing some RM70 million on a 30-acre site in Batu Kawan.</div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">It was reported that discussions between the Penang government and Jeyakumar were initiated three months ago and the promoters were looking to form a consortium that includes Middle Eastern and Chinese investors to undertake the venture.</div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">The promoters were also looking at roping in a Japanese company as a TECHNOLOGY partner. </div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">In Japan , Hitachi is one of the few leading monorail systems developers. Locally, SCOMI ENGINEERING BHD is also in the monorail systems business. It is believed that Jeyakumar’s plans are to build the test track, and eventually a factory that will supply monorail components to South Africa and other parts of the world.</div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">The consortium, if it takes off, will have a chance to bid for a proposed monorail network in Penang , which has been in the pipeline for some time now but has not taken off yet due to lack of funds. The monorail project is a federal government initiative that was shelved during the mid-term review of the 9th Malaysia Plan in 2008. The letter of intent for the RM1.6 billion project had earlier been given to a consortium led by MALAYSIAN RESOURCES CORP Bhd. </div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">Members of the consortium include Scomi and the Penang Port Commission.Other contenders for the monorail project were MELEWAR INDUSTRIAL GROUP BHD and its partner PUTERA CAPITAL BHD , as well as MMC-Metrail Sdn Bhd.</div><div align="left"> </div><div align="left"></div><div align="left">This article appeared in The Edge Financial Daily, November 30, 2009.</div>gtchyehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16483902492773694060noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7947178151067714169.post-21260729859345492132009-11-28T21:57:00.000-08:002009-11-28T22:09:37.104-08:00Pictures taken on 17 Oct 2009Not much progress recorded.
