THE RACIALLY-INSPIRED DATUM JELATEK CONDOMINIUMS PROTEST BY RACIST PRO-UMNO MALAYS WHO GOT THEIR FACTS WRONG, thestar.my/News/Nation/2015/01/26/PKNS-all-buyers-bumiputras/ All 674 units of controversial Datum Jelatek condominiums have been REGISTERED TO BUMIPUTRA BUYERS, debunking allegations that the Malays could not afford to purchase the luxury units. Selangor State Development Corporation (PKNS) in a statement said that a total of 1,097 potential BUMIPUTRA BUYERS have shown their interest, exceeding their expectations on the project. As of Jan 14, 2015, the project has received an overwhelming support and so far a total of 1,097 BUMIPUTRA buyers have registered and it has EXCEEDED 674 units AVAILABLE, said PKNS General Manager Azlan Md Alifiah. On Sunday, hundreds of protesters against the construction of Datum Jelatek luxury condominiums in Keramat turned aggressive when they broke into the construction site of the project. They also tore down the zinc hoardings placed around the project site and entered the site. The protestors, led by Datum Jelatek action committee chairman Salleh Samad, CLAIMED THAT THE PROJECT WOULD NOT BENEFIT THE MALAYS AS MOST COULD NOT AFFORD TO PURCHASE THE CONDOMINIUMS. The condominium, which is being developed by Datumcorp International (DCI), will cost around RM700,000 per unit. Salleh also claimed that the project would allow the NON-Malays to reside in the 100% Malay area, a notion that THE MALAYS IN THE AREA WERE NOT PREPARED TO ACCEPT. Azlan said they would initiate a legal action against the irresponsible quarters who had caused damage to public property and vandalism at the site. What had happened is a disappointment as the demonstration, which was otherwise peaceful, turned violent when some individuals destroyed the hoardings. We are looking at this matter seriously and legal action will be taken against those involved. DCI had also lodged a police report on the matter, said Azlan. On allegations that PKNS had never met with the residents on the implementation on the project, he said both the state subsidiary and DCI had held several meetings with Taman Keramat residents. We have organised meetings and dialogues with the residents and we even received positive feedback from all of them, he added. MEANWHILE..... Fearing their MALAY-majority city neighbourhood MAY BE OVERRUN BY CHINESE , a group of residents in Taman Keramat marched to the construction site of upscale condominium project Datum Jelatek here and violently tore down its cladding today. The group had warned of “BLOODSHED last November if the luxury condo project, which sits on the former site of four blocks of Selangor State Development Corporation (PKNS) flats owned mostly by Malays, goes ahead. “This is a 100 per cent Malay area,” Salleh Majid, spokesman for the group, told Malay Mail Online when contacted over the phone. News portal The Malaysian Insider had reported a violent protest breaking out at the condo project site earlier today, but Salleh said the residents reacted aggressively TO DEFEND THEIR HOMES FROM CHINESE OCCUPATION . “I did my own study and I found out that they are trying to attract Chinese from China, Singapore, Taiwan and so on,” he said referring to the condominium project. He also DISAPPROVED OF LOCAL ETHNIC CHINESE STAYING IN THE PROPOSED PROJECT, when asked. “No. We already have this understanding… Keramat was created by Datuk Harun after May 13 to balance the Chinese population in the city with the Malays,” he said. “We have been through May 13 before, so why set fire to the oil? Why the need to provoke?” he asked, referring to the bloody racial clashes of 1969 that pitted the Malays against ethnic Chinese. The Keramat area was set up by the then Selangor Mentri Besar Harun Idris in a delicate attempt to achieve racial balance. Salleh said residents were AFRAID THAT THE INFLUX OF CHINESE TO THE AREA MIGHT FORCE MALAYS TO VACATE, similar to other Malay settlements in the city in the past. The self-professed professional claimed THIS WAD A CONSPIRACY BY THE PREDOMINANTLY CHINESE DAP opposition party to open up Keramat to the Chinese, but he did not provide proof to support his allegation. “THIS IS ALL A DAP AGENDA, Salleh alleged, before adding, “This project came amid insults to the Malays like the ‘Allah’ issue and others.” Salleh had previously said the planned luxury studio apartment, measuring 538 square feet each, was priced at RM700,000 and was not affordable to the Taman Keramat Malay community. He claimed the PRICES WERE SET HIGH SO THAT ONLY OTHER RACES COULD AFFORD TO PURCHASE THE UNITS. The Datum Jelatek Project that will be built on a 5.5-acre (2.2 hectares) piece of land had previously been said to be a redevelopment project of the low-cost housing area in Jalan Jelatek after all the residents, who were mostly Malays, had been moved out and given a small compensation. However, the project was said to have “changed” into a proposal to develop four exclusive buildings comprising offices, a hotel and a shopping centre targeted at the high-income group and corporate sector. Despite the protest, then Selangor Mentri Besar Tan Sri Abdul Khalid Ibrahim had given PKNS the nod to proceed with the project. Salleh said residents of the demolished flats felt cheated when they found out that the land was used to develop a luxury condominium. “And what is more painful for most of the third generation of Keramat residents is that luxury condominiums are being built instead of affordable houses for the Malay residents here,” he said. - See more at: themalaymailonline/malaysia/article/in-violent-outburst-jelatek-residents-say-no-to-chinese-neighbours#sthash.6S5PbTK7.dpuf AND...... Selangor Menteri Besar Mohamed Azmin Ali today QUESTIONED whether the rowdy protesters, who broke into the Datum Jelatek condominium construction site in Taman Keramat yesterday, were actual residents of the area. Who are they? Are you sure? Are you sure they are locals? Besides Salleh (Samad, chairman of the Datum Jelatek Action Committee), who else was there? he asked reporters in Shah Alam. Some 100 Malays yesterday marched to the construction site of the luxury condominium and began tearing down the zinc barrier surrounding it, amid fears that the project would turn the area into a “Chinese district”. Members of the Selangor chapter of PERKASA, as well as the Datum Jelatek Action Committee (BBDJ) were seen among the crowd. - See more at: themalaysianinsider/malaysia/article/azmin-questions-identity-of-datum-jelatek-protesters#sthash.4L3UBXfA.dpuf ----------- BUNCH OF IGNORANT RACIST INSECURE IDIOTS WHO GOT THEIR FACTS WRONG !!!!
