    THE case in May this year in which a Sierramas resident successfully sued the management company after his house was broken into put the glare of the spotlight on gated and guarded communities. It seems to be a trend lately for developers to come up with more and more of such projects.

  11. Vibrant and safe gated community 24/08/2004 The Star
    I REFER to the various opinions raised in the discussion relating to the development of gated communities. In this day and age where security is very much a concern of all Malaysians, is it any wonder that those who can afford it are willing to pay the extra ringgit to stay in gated communities so that they can sleep peacefully at night?

    GATED communities cannot be created because the access roads that have to be blocked do not belong to the residents living in such housing schemes.

    THE Housing and Local Government Ministry has been urged to look into the need for laws pertaining to the construction of gated communities.
