Keeping Your Home Safe While You Are Away

Switch off non-essential electrical items and check your stoves before you leave for holidays

Download the checklist here

BEFORE you leave for your holidays this Hari Raya, do a quick checklist to switch off non-essential electrical items and cooking gadgets in the kitchen.

This according to SS17 Bomba chief Deputy Superintendent Khairi Daud, is to ensure homes are safe from any risk of short circuits which may result in fire, while the house owner is away.

“Most times when a fire breaks out, it is because of short circuits or faulty gas stoves while the house owner is away.”

“Help reduce the risk of untoward incidences by looking at the basic checklist we have provided here and do a quick check before you Balik Kampung,” Khairi said.

He said personnel from the SS17 Bomba station will be proactively going out to public areas during this Ramadhan to hand out the checklist to residents and to remind them on how best to minimise a fire at home.

“We will be going out to the pasar Ramadhan stalls and public areas to give out the checklist to residents,” he said.

What happens when a G&G fails

Our collection is slow and while we may be having relative serenity within our area with almost no reports of criminal activities, all other areas ( non GnG )around us have been reporting theft and break-in cases. I remember the time before our GnG was up when we were experiencing almost 10 criminal cases a month. Our GnG keeps us safe but let's not take it for granted.

Here is an extract from SJ Alert:-

This happened in USJ26 from a resident called Akil. He lamented that crime has returned to his neighborhood since the G&G stopped due to the non-cooperation of the residents there.

Akil's remark

We had a break-in at our neighborhood yesterday between 4pm and 6pm during the heavy thunderstorm. The owner left the house at 4pm and returned around 6pm to find gate and door ajar. A suspicious silver MPV was seen leaving in a hurry when the owner returned with some tools used for breaking into the house, left behind. The owner reported the incident to the Police.

This is the THIRD (3) case since GnG stopped due to some residents apathy. And the thieves knows this and are targeting USJ 26. They being "professional", will always choose a time when we are most vulnerable for example:

1) Heavy rain, so even if the alarm sounds, no one will take notice.
2) Weekdays when no one is at home
3) Power failure (when CCTV and alarm not working)

Looking at the pattern…the guard can only serve as a deterrent….

And this was the case for the 2+ years crime free neighbourhood (while we had GnG implemented)

For those who don’t believe in GnG, IT WORKS……..


Hopefully, with these incidents, the residents at USJ26 can start to cooperate again.

Regards,

Akil

Beware! Serial Acid Splasher strikes



Copies of the above suspect picture will be distributed to our Security Guards!

Here are some preventive guidelines was posted on another website which you may want to read about.

Always walk facing against the traffic: So that the serial acid splasher will not attack you from the back. Besides that by walking against the traffic you will have a better chance of avoiding anyone who looks suspicious to you.

Avoid walking by the side of the road: If possible don't walk at the side of the road at all if it is unnecessary. You will be exposed and make yourself easy target for this serial acid splasher. Walk near the building where there are crowded people.

Always bring along an umbrella: This might sound crazy...but I suggest that you bring along a huge umbrella with you. So whenever you see someone suspicious approaching you, immediately open that umbrella to shield yourself from any possible attack. Yes! Just open it even though it is not raining. Best of all use the umbrella all the time. Moreover your umbrella can be a potent weapon for you to defend yourself in dangerous situations.

Inform the police of any suspicious motorcyclist: Banking on our lazy and inefficient Malaysian police alone is not enough. So the moment you see anyone riding a bike with dark complexion and looks suspicious...immediately take down the number plate and inform the police to come over as soon as possible. Who knows? Your information might lead to the nabbing of this serial acid splasher!

Put on more clothes: I know the weather is scorching hot right now. But putting on an extra jacket or vest might buy you some time to escape the devastating acid if *touch wood* you are being splashed!

Don't go out at all: No matter where you go, try not to walk...at all. If possible don't even go out if you don't have any transport, preferably car. It doesn't matter if the sundry shop is only 50 metres away from your home...you don't want to risk being splashed with acid right? So ask your parents, husband or other family members to ferry you around if you can.

Use as much water as possible: Water is the best remedy to counter the corrosive acid. The moment someone is being splashed with acid (either it is you or other victims), pour as much water as possible onto the affected body parts especially the eyes. Keep on pouring a large amount of water to dilute the acid. Keep on doing this until the acid has been diluted and washed away. So I suggest all of us to bring a water bottle all the time.

Haze is BACK!!!!!!!!!

Gotong Royong 2011 Pictures

The Gotong Royong last weekend was a success, nevertheless it would have been super if more committee members and street representatives had participated. Thanks to some of our residents who came with their family to participate in the G.R.



Also thanks to our Chairman, Mr Andy Lam, who managed to get some funds from the MPSJ and also MPSJ provided disposal services of the rubbish and branches which were trimmed off from some of the trees.



We also managed to erect back part of the damaged fences along USJ 3/1. If any of you drive along USJ 3/1 you will notice the place and the drains are much cleaner.
We could not cover more area due to lack of manpower.



Once again a big thank you to all members and residents who volunteered to participate in the G.R. To all committee members & street reps who did not turn up you missed an opportunity to participate in a wonderful community activity. Hope we do better the next time or in the next event.

JKP3 USJ Family Day - June 11, 2011

JKP3’s Family Day is back - June 11. It will be held from 5pm to 10pm with the theme “Loving Our Community, Caring for Our Environment”.

This year’s main attraction will be Hot Air Balloon rides, right at our very own MPSJ’s Stadium in USJ5. Just like the first family day, we will be offering 500 goodie bags to the first 500 families. Last year it was all snatched up in one hour, so make sure you get there early this year.

Among the attractions on the cards this year is a Bouncy Castle for kids (free of charge), face painting, sand art, fun fair, tele-matches for kids, free football clinic by Brazil Football Club, demonstration by Bomba, Free Health Screening, lots of interesting food stalls and a flea market. Many more plans are in the works for more activities.

We are looking for the community to participate in a few ways:

1) Run a stall in our “marketplace” – be it selling food, drinks, clothing, craft, services or just about anything legal you can think of;

2) Perform on stage – we will be running local performances from 7:30pm right up to 10pm, and will be getting a good sound system in place for this. If you’d like to showcase your talent, this is your chance;

3) Sponsor – This family day’s budget is approximately RM50k, and is being raised mostly from sponsorship in cash and kind;

4) Help out in running the show – one of our greatest achievements in last year’s family day was nearly 100 volunteers from all over USJ (and some Subang Jaya) pitched in to make it possible. Great teamwork, great results, great satisfaction.

FYI: Our 3/1 Resident Committee will be looking after the Prize Giving and Lucky Draw event; If you want to assist, please contact me at nyghtsky@gmail.com.

Upcoming Plans for Zone 3

For those of you who read Sarawakian’s column in this paper (if you’re not, I’m doing free advertisement for him), a constant complaint of his are the problems in Taipan – broken drain covers, filthy drains, restaurant food preparation, etc –I, as your representative to MPSJ, totally agree and share your sentiment. As I push in council meetings for improvements on this, I hope we can join hands together in making a difference.

Firstly, please do your part and don’t litter. Next, join me in voicing this to the Yang DiPertua (Council President) who is the head of the administration of MPSJ, as he heads the respective departments responsible for maintaining the cleanliness and infrastructure in our beloved Subang Jaya. You can also make complaints (it’s easy to do this online or via the hotline) to MPSJ, that gives a show of strength of our desire for improvement of service and concern for hygiene.

While I’ve talked about plans for zone 3 in my column in January’s edition of SJ Echo, the latest and biggest plan in the pipeline today for zone 3, is to convert the last remaining piece of vacant public land into an urban forest. This would entail a walking/jogging path, forest trees, possibly an exhibition farm and complimentary facilities. I’m glad the Town Planning and Landscape departments are working towards this, and we aim to do a public presentation before moving towards its development (possibly early next year). The design works in underway now.
