Mohamad Hanafe urges COB officers to carry out their duties with dedication and integrity.
Only two low-cost strata schemes are facing strata title issues, says Kuala Selangor Municipal Council (MPKS).
MPKS Commissioner of Buildings (COB) unit head Muhammad Zulfiqah Omar said strata titles were not a big issue in Kuala Selangor.
“We only have two low-cost strata schemes that are facing such problems, with no management bodies being formed there yet,” he said.
He added that there were currently over 400 strata schemes and about 25,000 parcels in the municipality.
Muhammad Zulfiqah said MPKS would also provide the state government with data to help resolve strata title issues in Selangor.
The data, he added, included the total number of strata schemes in Kuala Selangor, number of strata schemes facing title issues and estimated cost of resolving them.
“The data could help provide a clearer picture for the state government in channelling the funds needed to resolve strata title issues in Kuala Selangor.”
Muhammad Zulfiqah was speaking to reporters at the “Strata Conference 2025: Towards First Class Strata Management” at a hotel in Kuala Lumpur.
MPKS president Mohamad Hanafe Basri said the conference was aimed at exposing stakeholders to the latest strata-related information.
“The conference explored various strata-related issues and conflicts in depth while exposing participants to aspects such as smart technologies, property values and strata titles,” he said.
“I believe the knowledge gained from this conference can help leverage strata governance while driving cities to be more orderly and efficient in addressing strata-related issues,” he said when launching the conference.
He urged COB officers to carry out their duties with dedication and integrity in dealing with strata-related issues.
The conference saw about 140 participants from strata management bodies, developers, property agents, lawyers and local authorities from all over Malaysia.
They also engaged in the presentation of four strata-related research papers and a forum.
On June 9, the state government launched its Selangor Strata Fund to solve strata title issues in phases, with six apartment buildings identified as pilot projects.
The buildings were Flat Bunga Raya (Port Klang), Pangsapuri Seroja (Puchong), Apartment Dahlia (Rawang), Rumah Bandar Taman Saga (Ampang) as well as Pangsapuri Permai and Pangsapuri Seri Damai in Batu Caves.
It was also reported that the state government had approved RM10mil for the fund under its budget this year.
A total of RM100mil was reportedly required to resolve all strata title issues at apartment schemes in Selangor over the next 10 years.
