My sister in law's apartment unit is being tenanted out. However the problem that her tenant is facing is there is a bunch of inconsiderate neighbours who are also tenants of another unit on the same floor belonging to a different owner. These people allow their pre-teen and teenage children to play football in the lift lobby when there is a perfectly huge football field downstairs. Numerous complaints by practically the residents of whole block, have been made to the management but they said they have tried reasoning with those tenants and even asked for the owner's contact from the agent. Not only are these people a nuisance in the lift lobby they are equally bad at the swimming pool area. I also understand they once threw down a can of paint from the 16th floor !


The management approached the agent to get the name of the owner or alternatively, could the agent inform the owner of the atrocious behaviour of his tenants. Being irresponsible and selfish, the agent said no can do and totally ignored that request. She asked if anyone got hurt, since none, so there was no need to do anything.


Now is that how agents behave?? Is money the MAJOR criteria so much so that she (this agent is a lady) doesnt care two hoots about anyone else? Is this attitude a norm among agents? Please I hope not!!

Its awful to hear the story. I've got one. I dislike a neighbours with dogs. I dont mind if they're having only 1 dog. But if they're having more than 3 it irritates me.

Anyway, its typical problems in Malaysia. People will reacts when there is a big problem (ie someone killed). Sigh!!

How awful to be stuck with such inconsiderate people. We keep saying thats the Malaysian way. Why???? We should stick up for what we believe in.

Just the other day I ordered a bowl of beef soup. When it came it was so watered down. I sent it back and refused to pay for it. the owner came over, took a look at the soup and agreed with me. Now if I hadnt kick up a fuss, I would probably have to pay for something I would definitely not want to partake. Now thats the Malaysian way

I also hate those neighbour that keep dogs. It's very irritating and annoying when several dogs start to bark.
I'm from Penang and the local coucil unable to react anything. The coucil push to management. Management where can do much things on it.... Huh

The council cant be bothered, not only in Penang but probably in other states as well. My friend who lives in a terrace house is living next door to a guy who breeds guard dogs for sale. Can you imagine the pong and the endless barking? Talking to that guy was useless, complaints to the local council fell on deaf ears. You know why because that guy used to be a top civil servant so hands off! How sickening?

and by the way, my friend hardly ever spends his days in his own house and he is still paying off the mortgage. He cant sell and rent it out. Who wants to stay next door to such an environment.

Huh...this is Malaysia culture.....
Just wondering either there's any electronic devices in Malaysia that can make the dogs sick ah?
Eg:- Ultrasonic device or etc.....

Human make noise middle of the night can be nab by police. But, dogs barking middle of the night is free of violation and no enforcement on it.

Deon't hurt the people animals , though..... they are innocent victims as well.

Thats not just animals. there are some restaurants in front of our condo which are converted to street cinema. they have huge screens and play TV for people in street from 12am to 6 am!! we are in level 12 but can hear easily peoples shouts and crowds! complained to everywhere but no response, even police said we cannot do any thing!
i hope here become more lawful and police enforce law much better!

Happy New Year

Realize this is an 18 month old post, but I couldn't help asking: how can a tenant gain access to his unit when the management does not have a copy of the rental agreement with all the owner details and proof of their tenancy? Who pays for the service charges and in whose name then is the electric meter and land department title? 30 ringgits gets the owner's name and registered address with contact details from the land department, just in case people need to know.

I agree with Mr. Samer Helmy....that's after 6 months and 3 weeks post by him...lol!

I am just wondering, how come that there's no action being taken by the management authority with regard to this erring tenants? Here in the Philippines, once there's a complaint, the authority immediately addressed the situation...

Anyways, since this post been in a long time already, i guess they already addressed the situation. I just hope so...peace!
