MPSJ seeks owner of abandoned project
02/02/2008 The Star By Lim Chia Ying

THE Subang Jaya Municipal Council (MPSJ) wants the owner of an abandoned construction project in USJ 1, opposite the Giant hypermarket and The Summit shopping mall, to come forward to resolve the matter.

If the owner doesn't turn up, the council may take legal action to forfeit the land.

The abandoned place was in the news recently when a 36-year-old man from Sabah was found dead at the site.

In the past, the council had released guppy fish into the derelict project site where some of its floors, which were meant to serve as basement car parking bays, were submerged in water.

Previously, some foreigners had also made the site their home while some even went in to fish and swim. The foreigners have since vacated the area.

According to MPSJ president Datuk Adnan Mohd Ikhsan, the problem is that the council is unable to trace its owner.

“We have also put up hoarding around the place but there are people who start prodding holes around to enter. These people go in to dive and camp there. I hope the public would not do such things in future and put themselves at risk,” he said.

Subang Jaya assemblyman Datuk Lee Hwa Beng said this is the second death occurred there, and he advised the public to not go into the abandoned site.

"The first incident was last year when a father took his 10-year-old son in there for fishing, and the son fell into the water and died," he said.

He also urged the land owner to show up. If he fails to do so in February, Lee will consider bringing the case to Petaling Land office to have the land confiscated.
