USJ 3/1 and 3/2 - a Guarded Community!

And then, we were GUARDED!




Several of our Committee Members had to take leave from work today. Not because we were planning to go on vacation together, but there were lots to do for the commencement of our Guarded Service.



At 8:00 am this morning, we met up with our Security Contractor ( Star CMS ) and Guards, and did a comprehensive walkthrough of our USJ 3/1 surrounding. The Security Guards were thoroughly bombarded on our huge expectation with regards to Security and Safety of our neighbourhood.

The patrolling guards were also alerted to pay attention to two crucial points i.e. the barrier fence and the overhead bridge entrance, both located along Jalan USJ 3/2 ( featured below )



At about 10:00am, our equipments arrived and the Committee started to get in gear. Putting up the 1st Canopy was a challenge; it only took five of us, a good 20 minutes to figure out which two pole fit together ( joke ). The ones after that, was easy. ( Take note that the current set-up is only temporary pending the construction of the Guard Houses )



Add chairs, tables, signboards and traffic cones and Voila!

USJ 3/1 and 3/2 is now officially, a 24hrs Guarded Community.



As the day progressed, residents' cars ( featuring the 3 Greens stickers ) began to pass by the 3 Security checkpoints. Upon recieving smiles and waves from the car occupants, our day brighten knowing that we are definately off to a great start!



We do acknowledge that no system is without flaws and like to invite all our participating neighbours to contact your 3 Greens Residents' Committee with your feedback and suggestions as to how we may better improve the security services;

We also kindly ask for your patience and understanding while we work out any kinks in the system in the next couple of days.

had to wait a bit because the Sec Guard was screening cars without stickers. Knowing that my family is safer because of it makes the wait worthwhile.

Saw some cars holding up traffic and scolding the poor guard at your Gate b

I understand from earlier article that 88% of residents support the scheme, so that means the non-supporting group is only 12%.

I just want to say this to them. Be reasonable. We have to right to protect our family even if you do not.

Good Job to the committee, we really appreciate the effort and sacrificies that you guys have made. We feel so much more secure now and most importantly I think it foster the togetherness in the neighbourhood better.

A bit of inconvenience is a small price to pay for a piece of mind and safety of my children.

Thank you to the committee

Lim JC said...

I was annoyed when I was stopped by your guard at 3/1H entrance last evening on the way to my house at 3/2G but after some thought, I admit that the whole security scheme has its merits.

Who do I have to contact if I also want to participate?

Damien Yeap said...

Dear 3 Greens Pro-tem Committee

Thank you for all the hard works you are doing especially our street rep. Mr Yap and Ms Sharon. Without you guys the gate project will not be a success.

Once again me and my family thanks all the committee members and all
those who are involved in the project.

Wishing all our Muslim Neighbours "SELAMAT HARI RAYA AIDILFITRI" and
the non-Muslim "HAPPY HOLIDAYS"

Best wishes

As a victim of a house break-in July this year, I can personally relate to how traumatic the experience is.

God Bless our Hardworking Committee
