@Koo is true ! i guess you will see lot of flies perching inside the show house later ! Alma and machang bubok having flies issues there, i went to BM highland show house last week, can see lot of flies inside the show house, foresee PS will having same issues later since chicken farm just nearby it !
@Matt
my house not near chicken farm also got flies lah .. most of the landed house sure got flies. if you don’t like to see any flies, then, I think you should buy condo or apartment. Flies cannot fly up so high unless the flies know how to use the lift .. ha ha
Hi Koo, tell me where to get a 500k landed property with 13good points. Gurney? Mont kiara ? Traffic is congested also. Keep writing but no point.
What is the buildup size for Semi-D and Link-Semi-D? 24’ x 45’?
Let me provide 13 good points for PS
1. developed by branded developers
2. Guarded, outsiders not easy to enter
3. Got flies, got dogs, got chicken, means the area is safe, not polluted, no radioactives
4. affordable
5. Can park 4 cars easily, 12 motocycles without problem.
6. Quality materials
7. underground cabling. Monyet cannot goyang on top of your house.
8. Room is not too big. Dont need to buy big horsepower air-con, dont need to spend lot of money to renovate.
9. House not too big, no need to spend lot of energy to do clean up.
10. You can opt to use 2nd link to Penang.
11. Go to KL easier compare to Penang Island.
12. Eat tambun seafood also closer
13. close to Dukun Hill. Good for exercise.
@Kiong
Agree. Indeed these are little treasures many cannot see. Those who are blur will not be able to appreciate. Ha! Ha!
Agree+++
@Kiong
you forgot
14. “WATER THEME PARK” to massage eyes. [I’m just quoting the developer’s comment on the flood basin]
15.Can get cheap contract labor from surrounding neighbourhood to clean house and renovate.
16.Can have free entertainment from neighbours who are just a ear shot away.
Having lot of flies and chicken farm also can consider a good point? Look likes you’re misleading buyer here !
Went to site to do survey, this is absolutely good comments on bad points of PS ! and it is true points !
rephase the format so that can be easily read !
1. No gated, the guard no right to block outsider to use the main and internal roads as those roads are not belong to the permatang santuary’s community, in fact the roads are belong to MPSP.
2. Smelly chicken farm nearby
3. The development not in strategic location.
4. last time is one of the flood areas, that is why developer plan for big retention pond there.
5. All landscapings will be maintained by MPSP in future, it may become mosquito – aedes’s home if MPSP not come on time to cut the bush/grass. Retention ponds might become Aedes’s home too.
6. Hard to collect money for paying the guard services, not all residents willing to pay due to no enforcement on monthly maintenace fees.
7. Traffic always congested during office hours from Juru’s main road to permatang tinggi, you can take other routes with longer distance, waste time and money.
8. Nearby old taman and shops lot filled with lot of banglas, will create security issues.
9. Semi-D with terrace’s build up only.
10. Residents can re-design their house external outlook such as repainting with the color they like, build addtional external partial of building and so on, the outlook of whole taman not neat.
11. Pet’a poof such as dog’s poof will be here and there at roads and play ground or front of house, the poof might come from the house’s dogs/cats, wild dogs/cats later on.
12.The guard house at main road or internal road can be demolished by MPSP if getting complaint from outsider or nearby residents.
13.Seem likes nearby tis development still have empty land, if it is own by other developer in future, then potential re-open the end road of this taman is higher.
I don’t want be neighbour with ‘foreigners’, will this place later mass rent out for them and become second Juru ? Can rename the project as Foreigner Village @ PS
Totally Agree. Thanks for add in these important good points.
Thanks. The IJM told me will sign SNP in by Aug. Not sure whether is true or not.
1. No gated, the guard no right to block outsider to use the main and internal roads as those roads are not belong to the permatang santuary’s community, in fact the roads are belong to MPSP.
The good thing is Guard will question “Why you want to go in? Please write down your name and IC number”
2. Smelly chicken farm nearby
The good thing is the stink smell will chase out other outsiders from lepak in PS taman.
3. The development not in strategic location.
The good thing is, same as item 2. No outsiders like to come over here since not strategic and keep our taman peaceful
4. last time is one of the flood areas, that is why developer plan for big retention pond there.
What a good idea to setup retention pond!. No more floods forever!
5. All landscapings will be maintained by MPSP in future, it may become mosquito – aedes’s home if MPSP not come on time to cut the bush/grass. Retention ponds might become Aedes’s home too.
When our residents dont want to do clean up, at least we can go to MPSP and ask them do it, or we will not vote for them in election. Good to have another option to solve problem. We can rear some fishes over here in the pond. Good Feng Shui
6. Hard to collect money for paying the guard services, not all residents willing to pay due to no enforcement on monthly maintenace fees.
Good to know who is good or bad resident and ask our children dont get close to them. We can train up gov to have better idea to manage this problem in future
7. Traffic always congested during office hours from Juru’s main road to permatang tinggi, you can take other routes with longer distance, waste time and money.
Peoples enjoying driving will love this house because will keep them longer spend in the car. This also to make gov realise how poor they do the town planning and get them to improve again. Good thing!
8. Nearby old taman and shops lot filled with lot of banglas, will create security issues.
This will make this place looks a bit crowded, not really rich people stay. Therefore, the big gangster, robbers will not come over here.
9. Semi-D with terrace’s build up only.
Mentioned already, suiltable for small family and medium family. Save air-con consumption, save renovation, save ‘ah sam’ or maid.
10. Residents can re-design their house external outlook such as repainting with the color they like, build addtional external partial of building and so on, the outlook of whole taman not neat.
luckily guarded, because resident has to pay more for gated. If you notice still many gated house get modified even strata title. This is because Malaysia BOLEH. You can check gated house in front of Queenbay and gated ASAS DUNIA
11. Pet’a poof such as dog’s poof will be here and there at roads and play ground or front of house, the poof might come from the house’s dogs/cats, wild dogs/cats later on.
Very interesting comment. May I know which taman totally got no Dog or cat??? Or you simply comment
12.The guard house at main road or internal road can be demolished by MPSP if getting complaint from outsider or nearby residents.
Very interesting comment. This is approved guarded housing area. How MPSP can demolish the guard??? You really shut me up
13.Seem likes nearby tis development still have empty land, if it is own by other developer in future, then potential re-open the end road of this taman is higher.
Good to have other end of road opened at least will not rely on single road and hit traffic jam
It is depends on how you think… If you think badly, that’s mean bad… If you think you can, you can
@Kiong,
PS will become another “Juru Height”, you can refer to today Sin Chew paper(in Northen Edition) on the issue that Juru Height’s resident facing now! The issues almost same with PS – Banglas, Chicken Farm, Flies issues, just guarded concept with no gated ! And one more thing is not 100% of resident will be a nice and cooperate resident ones. If in dream, yes, but in actual world, hard to get all residents to cooperate !
If u buy for stay, better think twice !
if u buy for investment then pls don’t mislead buyers !
Thanks for highlight this Lokman. I read the Sinchew and it mentioned clearly that the problem happened to Juru Height non-guarded housing area only. I provide the link here so will not mislead the buyers. Thanks.

“由於翡翠嶺的治安日益敗壞,目前不屬於保安社區的房屋區,已通過居民協會向地方政府提呈在住宅區主要入口設立保安亭的申請。”
他說,住宅區居民不能隨意設立保安亭,市政局會以個案處理申請。
Something is true that the house owner should not simply rent out to foreigners and that will make the place quiet messy. This PS is not cheap. The build up area is small and cost more than 450K. I hope the owner will not do that. This is something cannot avoid even in other area.
But I believe if we have strong committee and guard control, we always can advice the residents here make the place clean and tidy.
Like Juru Height case, once the MPSP approved the guarded concept, I think that will help them a lot. Do you all think so?
Hahaha…look back to those comment, hw ridiculous and naïf some1 are. Trying to use the word ‘if’ that give no promising and unpredictable. Problem hv to solve nt avoid and good if u can persuade urself not to care about it.(btw, I don really hv good solution so I not simply convince ppl). Like tat when a day come, some din pay for d guard and use d internal facility, should we say glad tat is good all can save $?for me I’ll seen no positive analysis, al r reason tat barely enuf to support.but, we stil booked some units and wait and c.
檳城‧大山腳)外勞入侵、治安敗壞、週圍養雞場導致蒼蠅為患、垃圾衛生欠佳、豪宅變成工廠外勞宿舍、外勞及無牌小販擺攤搞夜市場等等,位於柔府的高尚住宅區翡翠嶺(JURU HEIGHTS)民生問題實在頭痛,多年來無法徹底解決。
威省市議員林道宏及那登,昨日(24日)聯袂市政局工作隊前往翡翠嶺瞭解情況,並與翡翠苑保安社區協會及翡翠嶺居民協會的代表交流。
林道宏:市局將噴除蠅藥物
林道宏說,翡翠苑是屬於保安(GUARDED)社區住宅,內有111間雙層排屋、146間3層樓別墅及101間3層樓排屋;翡翠苑旁不屬於保安社區的雙層排屋及店屋共有494間。
他說,之前市政局沒有前往翡翠苑進行噴射消除蒼蠅噴霧,是因這個住宅區的保安地位不清晰,經過查明後,這個住宅區的地位是屬於保安社區,而不是圍籬(GATED)社區,因此市政局會進入有關社區進行清理工作。
外勞工餘非法擺檔
他說,翡翠嶺住了許多在工廠工作的外勞,這些外勞工餘也違法擺檔做起生意,市政局將探討如何管制這些外勞,其中包括聘請外勞的工廠必須負責外勞非法經營生意的罰款。
“由於翡翠嶺的治安日益敗壞,目前不屬於保安社區的房屋區,已通過居民協會向地方政府提呈在住宅區主要入口設立保安亭的申請。”
他說,住宅區居民不能隨意設立保安亭,市政局會以個案處理申請。
他說,以翡翠嶺住宅區為例,屬於保安社區的翡翠苑,屋價高達百萬令吉,旁邊沒有保安社區的屋價,只有30萬令吉。
馮永傑:約逾千外勞入住
翡翠嶺居民協會的代表馮永傑說,整個非保安社區的雙層排屋,約有30間已成為工廠外勞宿舍,每間屋子都住了逾20人,翡翠嶺的外勞人數保守估計都有逾千人。(星洲日報/大北馬)
@Kiong,
Are you sure IJM will build a guard house for PS?
MPSP approved the guard house plan for PS already?
any ideas?
another question – there got 7 phases in PS, are there got 7 guard house also to block the external ppl to enter PS in future? what is IJM plan on securing the PS since this is not a GnG scheme?
@Matt
I talked to the IJM officer. They showed me the phase I and phase II will be totally closed up with only 1 entrance. They told me the guard house will be there. But I hope they will create a very nice guard house. We donno how beautiful it will be. Sorry.
Not dare to speak for other phases. Based on the map & plan, there will be diffierent guard house for different phase.
That can be a small pondok only :D. For sure we will have fence to close up the phase1 and 2.
Kiong said PS is good.
LokMan said PS is bad.
We should respects others opinion. The opinions here MAINLY PREDICTIVE only, don’t know what going to happen in future.
Those feel good, ok
Those feel bad, just walk away, no need to hantam the buyers there……..not fair la
It doesnt mean Lokman totally wrong. Everything got its pros and cons.
You are welcome to provide your opinions, constructive opinions either good and bad.
But really dont like people come in and list down 13 bad points and none of good point. What is your intention? Chase people out from PS?
I share just my personal opinions for your reference. Nothing is guarantee. Thank you
All this anti PS people only want to talk bad points. Repeat and repeat again many many times again and again……round and round!!!! Furthermore copy other people’s bad points ONLY and throw out the other good points. So naive and bias. Even old grandma never nag like that. Don’t be a problem but be part of the solution if your opinions mean anything to anybody.
@Kiong
this is MPSP approved guarded housing project. The guard house will be built beside the corner house – plot 17 and the buyer of plot 17 are made aware off. Phase I and Phase 2 are separated and 7 feet wall will be build to cover the entire phase I — so, there is only one entrance
@Kiong
I like your reply to all those bad points — you are so good — are you a buyer ??
@Kiong
PS house is worth 1/2 million. Rental will be at least RM2,000. If a person can afford to pay RM2000, then, this person will go not opt for renting. … unless the owner want to rugi rugi rent out at RM700 —
Hi lost,
Yes. I have booked 1 unit already. But also thinking to drop because of budget problem. I dont earn much and very difficult to get this.
I went there almost every week. I can smell the chicken farm when wind blow direct to show house. I believe it will not come to us all the time, only when wind blow to houses area then you will smell it. Never scare of that, because at Batu Maung, the place I work, I can smell pig farm everyday.
I never see the flies. Not sure why people complain about flies. I can see some wander dogs. This is not IJM or PS fault. Just stupid people rear puppies when they like but throw out when the puppies grew to adult. How stupid the peoples doing this.
I just hope they dont build any factory beside, if yes, it will be very bad.
Talk about bangla, Vietnamese, they are my neighbourhood in my existing Taman. They dont really create safety problem, very secure stay with them. Believe me.
Just I dont want to comment about Indonesian. I guess you know the answer. I believe not many Indonesian nowadays. I guess.
The IJM officer told me the show house will be completed by August. But I have visited to show house already. Not bad.
I visited to many many houses in mainland. at the end, my wife and I decided stick with IJM. Because we touch the toilet basin with table top, we touched the switch, we touch the grill of staircase. Nothing can compare with the quality. We will explore more I will update you once I found more. I hope our lot will have same or even better quality than show house.
Th
@Kiong
Tx for feedback. Fr ur comment I noe u got good impression for d project jz a bit problem v d budget. It’s true it’s a half mil house, hv to take many into consideration. Btw, Ijm staff can’t promise thr only 1 entrance. Thr wil be demolishing of fencing wall to open for another entrance if internal citizen agree with tat? Whos noe?
Kiong, great jobs keep it up. If the place is so bad, Tesco and Jusco will not invest in Alma. Later, macdonald, starbucks, old town…. Will invest in Alma. Let’s see…
@Kiong
if the house value is RM550K — 40 years loan period — your salary need to be at least RM8000. You shouldn’t need to be worry so much — every year your salary will increase and you can also withdraw your EPF money.
@TL
2 KFC outlets (one near to Alma Maybank and another one is at Tesco) and Pizza hut already at Alma area ..
Kiong, which unit u book?
Macdonald, public bank, cimb, rhb… Many many more outlets to be open… Alma area will boom.. Just look the car sell centers had setup in alma…
Will PS be another Juru Height? i think so…..agree, not a good buy !
I went to the site just now during night time. The show houses are closed and secured by guard already.
One important point, it is not just show house, but they called it ‘Show Village’. Very impressive. … it looks very nice with all the lightings. really a good quality development. It makes part of Permatang Tinggi very beautiful.
oh did u take any pics? cant wait for the show house to be ready.
Went to site yesterday. Still can smell chicken stinks. Is it because of the site construction or this smell will be around all the time?
Semi-D unit is worth buy.
Car porch 29’x22’, extra land backyard 20’, extra land by side 10’.
Any other semi-D projects have extra land like this?
but the build up area is quite small
Everything is good. Just i cant tahan the chicken stinks. Hope IJM can release the bumi lot and I will take 1 unit far far away from the chicken farm
have…residency cendana
If you live in BM long enough, you will know that Juru is not location. It is an isolated area. it is on the other side of the highway and near to factory. Good for industry not for living.
So far which bank provided the best package on loan? I will proceed to apply for loan now as just get the reservation form.
Built-up size for semi-D
20’x45’ small
22’x45’ good
24’x45’ better
>26’x45’ best
@CYX
i think you are replying to my note…well of course juru is not the most ideal location as compared to other places…but BM is too far away from the bridge for people working in island..at least juru is much more nearer to first bridge and with second bridge coming soon, it will be connected via batu kawan…talking about industry area, juru is still more light weight compared to other places like bukit minyak…summore it is very near to auto city and soon icon city too…actually juru is not as bad as you guys think…juru heights is not the real juru..
@sm
the only set back about Bukit Minyak is the land soil. It is swampy land and many houses especially car porch are sinking. Location is much better than BM – less traffic jam and the house is cheaper compare to Alma houses.
@aizen
nothing is perfect in this world
@hunnyshinez
Semi-D built size 22’x45’ is acceptable, not so small.
Ideal minimum size for semi-D is 24’x45’.
@lost
Not perfect then get the near perfect!
Semi-D in Permatang Sanctuary measures 22×48. although slightly narrow but length is longer.
Worth a buy for future investment…
Anyway, just pay RM10K downpayment till SNP. Once the show house is ready, you can view and if you dislike, full refund before SNP…
@interested
one thing good about PS is booking fee is 100% refundable. Nothing to lost if before SNP signed, you want to cancel the booking
@lost
Actually i also looking at Carnation Villa..but the terrace now is rm438k d..very expensive…
Went to PS site, the landscaping done by IJM very beautiful, but i really cannot tahan with the strong smell of chicken shit, got lot of flies there…lot of banglas rest at the nearby old shop/taman… jialat lo !!! How to stay like that? Air pollution la..
If not because of the booking fee 100% refundable, I bet no one will place the money to reserve a unit there. No matter how quality is ur house is, u will have to withstand the chicken smell and chase the flies off all the time.
@Chicken
That’s d point. I really wonder how ijm wil tackle those problem.
Lets see how many will still hold their unit after visiting the show house. U guys should go after rain. if u can tahan the smell then should be no problem
Only @lost can cope with “bau tahi ayam” in PS !!!!!
@Bangla
lost only buy for investment…not for stay…so no need to tahan bau tahi
you all ‘hiam hiam hiam’ (hokkien) and criticize criticize criticize only ….
At the end, my new PS house left neighbour is ‘Chicken’, right neigbour is ‘Chan’ and opposite is ‘Bangla’.
Kiong,did u visit the show house? No smell and flies?
Did you visit the show house?Cant you smell the chicken scent?
@Kiong will say no “bau tahi ayam” or “smell good” cause he use to that smell already. haha.
Yeah.. got chicken farm smell. But IJM house really worth to buy. I visited to the show house. You can see the quality of material is really good. So the trade off is you have to tahan the smell. Not all the time. The smell only come when wind blow to the house direction.
I think the chicken farm will not stay there too long. hopefully. If we drop the booking, where else you can buy the good quality house? Cannot hiam one. You dont want, still got many rich people can buy without concern. And when the time you want to buy, you have to pay 100k or 200k extra. Like last time, people said Batu Maung .. wow so far …. Sungai Nibong.. wow .. kampung…. Now you see the price is 5 times 10 times already.
Bangla, they are my neighbourhoods. they never create problem. Dont worry.
The thing we should worry is empty land. If they build steel & chemical factory. Then you will cry like a hell. Lynas is a good example.
Chicken Farm, bangla is not thing.
Good for u for having such positive thinking. Bear in mind that mainland properties might increase price but it will not like going to be easily sell off like in Penang. Ppl rather to go for new housing project compared to subsale in mainland. Especially PS with the closest distance to chicken farm
Right. The IJM is rich. They even willing to leave the house empty if no one want to buy. But if you see the landscape, I doubt he will have this problem. If you visit to their site, they are not just create the show house. But ‘Show Village’. Looks like they really serious to do kuat kuat this time.
IJM is only starting in mainland…the first project had to be good and relatively cheap compared to established developer in mainland like DNP in Alma.
once the phase is completed and sell well, subsequent project which are far away from the chicken farm will be much more expensive. at that time, the second bridge is also nearby and more reason to sell higher….
IJM can close the buyer eyes with beautiful landscaping, but the “tahi ayam” smell, flies, chicken farm and bangla issue will still be there. IJM will cabut from PS one day after their project completed, those landscaping will become bushes for sure, don’t harap MPSP will maintain cantik cantik for PS lo.
show village open soon..
2 type semiD & link semiD sample house for view.
updated pic @ http://s971.photobucket.com/albums/ae193/kytang/Permatang%20Sanctuary/
Thanks for sharing. Any good or bad points to comment since u have visited the show village?
u should take the chicken farm, flies and bangla photos as well. The chicken farm just around 80ft from the show house and bangla/vietnamese/indonesia that staying around the nearby old taman/shop are just 30ft to PS !! Please shoot those bad scenes and let ppl judge it. More fair ma.
Totally agree!!
@TY
@Chicken
@Bangla
By this time, anyone who has been to the site or have read comments here are tired of what you guys are saying. It is the same 2 things that we already know…chicken & foreigners. We have already discounted that. We as potential purchasers are very clear about all your negative intentions because you are not buyer or maybe salesman for another project. Just here to rub it in. We are not so stupid just looking at what can be seen now. We are more interested in the potential of this project….what cannot be seen yet. Further your comments about IJM shows how little you guys know about IJM. It is not their 1st project on the mainland and neither will they run away. You must be thinking that IJM is some unknown small time player in the housing development. What a joke?
Just need to ask. Who r the buyer/ reserver here. And who Ade confirm wil buy. We should hv a good talk by ourselves forming a group. Nt always listen to those who don like but keep coming comment repeat and repeat and repeat. I think this should be fair enuf rite?
Why so scare when we asked @yanguy to snap some photos on chicken farm, bangla and flies and share it here? We talked facts, not just talk empty here!
I have booked few units in a row. Plan to let go because canot tahan the chicken smell. Those who are interested can wait for my units then. Good luck
Luckily i did buy PS , hahaha i bought OV already.
@Chicken
I have even ask the people stay nearby lah — the chicken smell not happend on every minutes or hours. Only happend when it is going to rain or after rain or strong wind. Just close the door when smell it …
@Chicken
i don’t trust that you book a few units. IJM said only one person book 2 units. If you want to let go, just let it go now … go to IJM office, signed on a form. Within one week, RM10K will be back to you.
Who cares u believe anot. I am going to drop PS and go for Jesselton hills which has no chicken smell at all. The people stay nearby sure say no smell coz their houses are further than PS.
The chicken smell so serious?
You got no creditability here…either you talk nonsense or you lie. I rather believe in “lost” than believe you. Of course the next thing you are going to do is change your name and continue to rattle about chicken and foreigners again because that’s all you can say about PS. Go buy Jesselton hills, who cares!
Make sure the Jesselton Hills is guarded or gated, or bangla will simply go there and enjoy the facilities there. Also make sure there are no empty land around there. Just worry will be moved over to there since so many peoples make noise here.
One more thing, ensure residents in Jesselton hill never cook / eat at home, no rubbish produced. Otherwise you will have see flies also.
Good Luck!

Anyone of you know when we have to sign S&P? I received letter saying that the date will be by December. The officer said August. I need to understand so can prepare the downpayment.
@Kiong
The letter mentioned latest by dec, nt at dec. so it could be earlier. Is show house done and open to public?
yup, very serious. go to the site and feel it. i’m sure you’ll agree with me !
@Chan
Yup. Agreed.
Agreed with TY ! Yanguy, can you pls share the chicken farm, flies, banglas photo from PS?
MCDonald Coming To ALma.
Next to Tesco.
Jucso Coming To ALma.
Opposite Tesco.
Hong Leong Bank coming TO ALma.
Opposite 1+3d , magnum , Toto
I tot Jusco plan cancelled already?
Those not interested, do release the units before the official launch so others like me can get one before the price increase. Really like the design.
@Jimmy
Don’t worry, it is yours now as the crowd will run away after PS launch time due to cannot cope with the chic smell. IJM should spray more perfumes surrounding the show house so that the bad smell from chic farm will temporary solve when launch time ! hehe.
Don’t worry, IJM house cam sell sell even beside the telecom tower, power plant and landfill.
Still got units left kot ma.
Mount, which plot# left for semi-D link? Is bumi lot released?
@mok
New technology now available to kill germs and bad smell effectively….ozonator. IJM can afford this better than perfumes. Btw IJM said got many on waiting list. So small chance now to get a reasonable good unit and after launch likely price increase to be on par with other projects.
But i heard there are few units left over? Why need to queue on waiting list? Or u mean to book bumi lot need to put their names on waiting list now?
@Jimmy
Dom 4get thr are still a lot of waiting list for the drop. Bumi lot only open after 80% of completion, I guess Ned 1 more year. As a consumer, why Ned spend extra when u can save? I prefer d farm move rather buy tis buy tat to prevent.
Chan,all units are fully booked?
This is developer taktic laaa, all developers same ones, they will tell u many ppls in the queue to make u fell hurry to buy, marketing taktic lo, in fact no one in the queue …Hehe
There many bookings, only few units near the chicken unbooked…
however, after the SNP signed, then only we will know how many are real buyers as booking fees are fully refunded if you dislike the show house when it is ready
Since there are units left, why there is still waiting list?
waiting list for those who dont want the units near the chicken farm…
for those dont want to take up their booked unit after seeing the showhouse…
show house can only complete end of this mth per IJM sales person…
Delay again~
Got delayed ? Confirm?
Any photos on chicken farm, bangla and flies home in PS?
No need to put photo here laa, go there and smell ur self laaa ….. if long tern breath with this kind of poluted air, i worried ….. health will surely deteriorate.
Actually my uni campus was few km away from chicken farm but I still can smell the chicken shit most of the time. It has nothing to do with this. The whole PS even phase 2 until phase 7 will smell the scent. Please go there to take a breathe and if u can tahan the smell for ur whole life then only place ur booking fee. For those investors, no big issue at all. The location is good and it will attract the workers to rent the house
Actually my uni campus was few km away from chicken farm but I still can smell the chicken scent most of the time. It has nothing to do with this. The whole PS even phase 2 until phase 7 will smell the scent. Please go there to take a breathe and if u can tahan the smell for ur whole life then only place ur booking fee. For those investors, no big issue at all. The location is good and it will attract the workers to rent the house
IJM ah, can u be considerated a bit. Our $ is Ade ready for u, can’t u jz do smtg to convince us? Don tel us the problem, solve it! U selling at tis price profit really uncountable, can’t jz hv a little spend to settle the issue? Let me buy a house that I can be proud with….
Boss Chan, you just spent 500k for such quality house. What do u want more? If the chicken farm does not exist, IJM can easily sell 600k la. Please trade-off and stop blame IJM.
@Chicken
Tq my dear underline. Looks like u fr IJM, can clearly state what their price should be. R u 1 of the buyer too? If yes, congrats u r satisfied with the chicken farm. If not, do I heard some1 barking here?
no doubt IJM is good, but with those smell, better buy others.
Entired Alma area is not good cause too close to more that 10 chicken/pig farms.
BM area like Harmoni / Carnation Villa / Orange Villa is very good one.
You can consider this.
Alma area? Sorry, a no no for me.
Did you visit show house? Any feedback from u? Go or no go?
@Ooi
Your R wrong.
This is 1st project in mainland where buyer come and q early in the morning bout 4am.
I reached 8am and my q number 30++++
For Bumi Lot (Phase 1A & 1B) ( 2 Storey Link Semi-d, Type D ).
Best Location for the whole project fr Phase 1 to Phase 7. Best of the Best
Why? No more unit ( semi-d or bungalow ) direct facing Garden. If got Side Only
Walking Distance Nearest Commersial Shoplot for buying things ( In Future )
Located centre of each row.
Not a odd lot.
I want to Book on Launching, They say NO. “1Malaysia” cannot be use on Launching
@Hung
for chicken farm & phase1 site:
http://www.panoramio.com/photo/76672705
for banglas, no catch during sunday photo shooting as they all went to bm town.. heheee
for flies, no view during this afternoon, maybe they come on seasons as well the smell too.
Are you sure Harmoni / Carnation Villa / Orange Villa good projects? I hear Omax/Tai Wah are cowboy developers, somemore go to war with purchasers over petty things like hand rail and toilet seat. Also Airmas not reputable for quality but IJM is reliable. PS house existing specification quality already good enough. That’s why I look out for IJM development…..too expensive on the island but very reasonably priced on the mainland. The cowboy developers asking inflated prices but doesn’t seem capable of delivering quality or customer expectation.
Saw 1 bangla cycling in the photo of PS entrance.Haha
Wow, the chicken farm is very very closed to PS. Unbelievable~
@Jimmy
Agreed.
I think no way to get rid of chicken farm. The first day when I booked the house, the sales executive told me chicken farm is there. I believe those placed booking already accept the chicken farm.
No need to remind them anymore
@Jimmy
First rule in property purchases = Location. 2, 3rd rule = Location as well.
Location=enviroment[social, physical], facilities [in and outside the development], convenience, safety..and that includes the surrounding neighbourhood.
A good location you have to pay more and that translate into more
expensive in term of price.
If I follow your reasoning, then it must be located in Penang Island….but what a price to pay!
Any unit left sumore?
@Joker
Try your luck after launching !
First rule before location. BUDGET! Who didn’t know there is chicken farm! Money not enough mar… But good thing is when the chicken farm move away, the house price will appreciate.
Wtf,why those ppl so free to discuss about those thing that are not business with them and talk all the bad thing about PS
No worry about quality and workmanship.
THEY Even do PILING for ur Car Porch !
near chicken farm good lo..next time no need to go market d..;) directly walk over n purchase some chix….eheheh… ;P
Haha,can open a wet market in PS
Went to the show house today. The build up is small but overall looks nice. Not satisfy with the area under stairs. Seems wasted.
I rather to buy CW compared to PS. Location is bad and got so many problems (chicken smell, flies and bangla stay around ur house). Nowadays, project without GnG is no longer attractive. U can see clearly from all the new developed projects such as TR, carnation villa, CW. All use GnG concept. Not worth to buy a half million house with the possibility of all investors rent to bangla and turn up become another Juru Heights in Alma.
Is there any G&G project that has been well maintained? I have not seen any yet, correct me if I’m wrong.
@Johohe
Yes… The resident of GnG even can extend their house.. Very “well” maintain. They can do whatever they like. Malaysia boleh
Palm villa
If G&G 1 month at least ned pay 200, I prefer buy island condo. More worth.
@Bkt Tengah
GnG cannot guarantee owner will not rent out to Bangla. Money talks. GnG add to cost of ownership for whole life.
Haha,i can smell the sour grapes here
@Jimmy
Dont forget GnG need to pay maintenance fee every month, i dont think so the company will rent the house as hostel for Bangla to stay and pay the maintenance fee every month for this Bangla workers. I am agree with @BKT TENGAH that GnG concept project will be the new trend of housing development market
@TT
if want to buy GnG house, make sure you buy from branded developer. Look at Palm Villa, badly maintain – pool water is dirty and also allow outsider to use the pool (outsider is friends or relatives ), gym equipment not properly maintain. though not happy but owner still need to continue to pay maintenance fee …
Don’t worry, the build up is small. Not worth if rent to bangla. Hahahaha….
GnG just a developer’s tactic to increase the housing price. Built the wall, and called it gated, guarded is not their business, residents is the one who going to pay. Then every house can increased by at least 200k…
What next? buy another big piece of land, built the house and include some shopping mall or maybe school…and put the wall around it…so can isolated the residents like the Berlin’s wall.
i guess in future, more residents will isolated themselves in their own Berlin’s wall… not good for the society.
For the bangla or any foreign workers issue, we should raise it to the relevant authority instead of complaining or mocking around here. They should house in a proper dormitory, not in any housing estates. Any company who cannot provide a proper place for them to stay should not allow to hire.
Any one visited show house already? Is the show house completed?
We live in a capitalist society…everything is driven by profits, demand and supply. Banglas are hired because they provide cheap labour, maximise profit and reduce cost. Authorities sometimes pay lip service to please people who complains but don’t enforce the regulations well. It all goes back to the community who has stakes in the neighbourhood if you desire a better environment. G&G or no G&G, community support and participation is the key. Remember the professionals you hire are also here to make profits.
@SunnyWong
The show house almost complete – I think next 2 to 3 weeks. This saturday, the sales office will be moved in to Show Village.
after 2 weeks, be sure to ask Mr Gobe regarding the smell from chicken farm…
I am sure he will on leave after 2 weeks coz tak boleh tahan lagi
Its good aso.. Chicken smell too strong then will make u feel want to vomit .. So u can’t even tolerate chicken meat anymore.. So when tat happens.. No demand in chicken.. Supply become more than demand.. So eventually chic farm will close down..:p
@Joker
I bet he’ll stay till all the houses are sold. Money talks.
sure, he will stay indoor only…
Now I why got smell, the saleman name Goby, Got Smell Got smell… IJM have to hire one call Bobby, then Bo smell…
Just visited d site today.. a few rows can be seen, d structures are alrd up. Noticed 1 of d chick farm is fully enclosed but d others r not..but no smell eventhough quite windy today. And also d new sales gallery alrd opened.
I went to qeensbay and found new apartment at Jelutong… The apartment 600sq feet cost 473k… woww …. I rather pay for PS with chicken farm smell.
Once 2nd link bridge ready, this place will be very ong ….. I am thinking if Jusco will be here, this place will become shopping heaven in South Perai … Huat ah …. Digi yellow man will be here too.
Chicken Farm will turned to tourist place as well… it could be miracle .. it could be joke .. 😀
Good idea, can turn the chicken farm into restaurant … Serve all kind of chicken dishes.
You are right. Anyone knows arithmetic will agree. PS car porch and driveway (20 x 35) is already bigger than the whole apartment, some more got change.
@Kiong
I bet chicken farm will go away some day. Chickens don’t deserve to stay in high price strategic location.
ALMA is a developing area… We can’t judge the location by it condition now. We must imagine what will happened to this area in future after it had fully developed. I guess that is what IJM, DNP and also others developer is looking at also. Soon or later the chicken farm will surely move to make way for better development, if not by private developer it will be take over by GOV. It’s too early too early yet for us to judge and compare to other location like Butterworth and Georgetown which is already developed. Every city is also start from a jungle, pig or chicken farm, rubbish dump site and even an old graveyard. Who’s know about old that? Who knows how many pig farm in Georgetown and Butterworth back in 70’s? ALMA is already in it path to be a city, so why you all still stuck in the time and talking about things that happen now instead of future?
Good luck to all those Alma investors. Wait for 20 years then ur properties will start to appreciate
@K3
I bet less than 8 years before IJM finishes all the development phases. A fairly reasonable investment period, then a big jump before the next big wave. Good luck to you if you think 20 years.
@K3
After 20 years, you can collect the crumbs as even the chickens will not be here to pick them up.
@K3
Maybe you should try the outskirts of Penang, like Perak or Kedah border, for an affordable home 20 years from now. Alma will be a booming city by then.
No need to support the project blindly. Alma house price is increased drastically for no reason. Dun tell me Alma got tesco becoz kulim oso got tesco but the house price is not reaching 400k. All the increasing house price is becoz DNP goreng alma area. BMU is selling at higher and higher price with smaller and smaller build up. The bubble will pop eventually.
@K3
Actually who r u to say bubble will pop? U think do v care? We r buying a home not house. Jz bek from their new show house. Realize semi d is much more larger den link. 5 unit left. Straight away direct book 2 more unit to secure.
@K3
If there was no development in Alma, prices won’t go up. So don’t be blind to any development that is already happening…it is here for you to “see”. When bubble burst, not just Alma, but any development that is over-priced will follow. Ask yourself if there is any reasonably priced development around. That would be good investment because that fall will not be a hard fall. Those who can “tahan lama” will reap the harvest in the next cycle.
Chan,how much is the semi-D?
Any show house photos to share?
@SunnyWong
499 by nw after rebate
@Alma
Nt taken any photo as I always talk to gobe only
Any updates from Mr. Gobe?
mr gobe said tak boleh tahan bau tahi ayam and need to pukul lalat all the time
@Joker
After went to site. I quite satisfied v my choice. Realize, this is jz an open forum, don’t think any ppl speech wil influent wat I observe and feel by myself. U can say whatever u like here, but $ is our and we stil hold tat properties. Pls cont to humiliate urself here by giving those nonsense talk. Btw, u jz nobody to us. Buu….
@Chan
But it is still very smelly , it is a fact and big NO NO.
You have to accept the fact.
The smell is ON and OFF. Please go to the site smell for urself
Guys, which bank offers best rate?
@SunnyWong
PS chicken smell is like KFC smell, OK whatt
@TTS
i got public bank with 2.5 first yr, 2.45 2nd n 3rd year and 2.4 for remaining year.
@TTS
CIMB 2.45 for whole tenure
CIMB is their panel?
U applied flexi or non flexi loan? Is MRTA compulsory?
@TTS
CIMB is not their panel.
@TTS
I not yet decide want to go for semi or full flexi.
how about you?
PBB told me they have no semi-flexi. Only conventional or full flexi. Thinking of taking OCBC
look @ the PS masterplan – a 131acres with 7phase projects, to be join with asas impian & dnp jesselton while fully completed….
http://s971.photobucket.com/albums/ae193/kytang/Permatang%20Sanctuary/?action=view¤t=PS-masterplan.jpg
how much is the price now? any promotion like free SPA and legal fee? the 10% can pay by installment?
Boss,where u got this pic?
@someone
Free SPA,legal fee and stamp plus 10k discount. But all this is only before show unit launch. 10% need to pay as soon SPA is ready. Price 430k above for Link semi-D and 530k above for Semi-D. Depend on the unit location.
@Alma
I guess it’s from IJM project progress brochure booklet. I saw it in it when last time I took that brochure from the site office.
With so many new housing projects such as hillpark, tropicale, jesselton hills 2, why u guys go for PS? It seems no good in terms of location wise. Mind to share ur opinion?
@Joker
A few factors, such as;
1. Price out of our budget.
2. Sold out.
3. Unreliable developer.
4. Don’t like their concept.
5. Some even beside chicken farm. E.g jeselton. (Oso have smell on and off).
6. GnG concept may not everyone choice. (Cost of paying maintenance fee is just like renting an extra house).
Anyone? Anything else I have miss out?
@Joker
location is definately very good exceptl little bit KFC smell
quality wise also very good
when the 7th phase fully completed ps will become new icon in alma!
Is Jesselton next to chicken farm? I tot PS is the one which is very near to chicken farm only. Others seem like quite a distance.
I like what u said “little bit KFC smell”. I am worried the smell too strong until i get chickenphobia.
@Joker
Without chicken farm, tis Plc v tis price is jz too perfect enuf.!
Agreed. PS phase 1 price is cheaper because it has 1 deadly chicken farm issue which is not able to solved at this moment. However, 2nd phase onwards will be better as the site is further away from the chicken farm.
@Joker
Don’t buy lor, get other projects. or else you might end up seeing chicken psychologist!!
