Only two Kuala Selangor strata schemes facing title issues
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.

State estimates RM100mil required to settle cases over 10 years THE state government has launched the Selangor Strata Fund (DSS) initiative to solve strata title issues in phases. Six apartment buildings have been identified as pilot projects. The buildings are Flat Bunga Raya (Port Klang), Pangsapuri Seroja (Puchong), Apartment Dahlia (Rawang), Rumah Bandar Taman Saga (Ampang) and Pangsapuri Permai and Pangsapuri Seri Damai in Batu Caves. Amirudin says the state approved RM10mil for the DSS fund under this year's budget. Selangor Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari said the state had approved RM10mil for the fund under its budget this year. He said a total of RM100mil would be required to resolve all strata title issues in apartment schemes in Selangor over the next 10 years. 'Although this involves significant financial implications for the state, the initiative will be continued in the interest of current owners and the future generations, to enable secure inheritance of the properties. 'The strata title grant is an important document that clarifies ownership rights, facilitates the inheritance process and protects the rights of heirs.

Amirudin also said the DSS initiative was expected to generate returns for the state within 10 years, as residential units that have obtained strata titles would be paying parcel quit rent. Also present at the event was state housing and culture committee chairman Datuk Borhan Aman Shah. He said strata housing development in Selangor had grown rapidly in the past two decades. 'According to the Department of the Director-General of Lands and Mines, there were 898,368 strata titles registered in Selangor as of 2023. 'Across the state, 648 development schemes, involving 138,817 residential units have been unable to obtain strata titles since 2007,' he said. The programme, which attracted many residents from the surrounding area, kicked off with mass aerobic exercises, followed by activities like traditional games competition, basic health and teeth check up, and community cooking. Young children had a fun time playing at the inflatable playground and getting close to animals at the petting zoo set up just for the programme. There were also many booths set up by government agencies for the people to get to know more about the services.
