These are not legal gated communities - these are only guarded neighbourhoods. Moreover these are not private nor strata properties - fyi, these are more like illegal 'gated communities'.
Since when are the RAs allowed to implement auto access card/ proximity system despite not having the required 100% consent from the residents? Even strata or private properties are required to have 100% agreement from the residents!
Despite the RAs know that it is illegal to use auto access card system here, they have blatantly disregarded the guidelines /laws, and still implemented them anyhow for their own agenda.
So, where is the rule-of-law here? What happened to "Kedaulatan Undang-Undang" under Rukun Negara? Are the RAs here unable to follow the rule of law, unethical or corrupt?
The majority of residents now are urging the relevant authorities to investigate and put a stop to these illegal practices asap. Residents are thereby urged not to support such schemes anymore.

Dear Residents of BBR,
How do you know whether your RA chairman is an ethical law-abiding-citizen chairman or a corrupt conman?
Your chairman is a conman when he breaks multiple laws to implement his own GnG scheme so that he can collect monthly fees (some call it toll, others would call it protection money) from the community.
Even though the property developer have clearly stated that the residence is not a gated community, your chairman still want to operate an illegal scheme taking advantage of the grey area and the residents' lack of knowledge in this subject.
Your chairman is a conman when he failed to inform the community the type of scheme that they are only allowed to operate is a guarded neighborhood scheme, not a gated community scheme.
Your chairman is a conman when he failed to inform the residents on the differences between a guarded neighborhood scheme vs. a gated community scheme.
Your chairman is a conman when he failed to inform the residents on the differences between a formal gated community scheme (under private/ strata residences) vs. an informal gated community scheme.
Your chairman is a conman when he operates a guarded neighborhood scheme as if it is a proper gated community scheme. Both schemes are very different, one is legal but the other is actually illegal. (Comparing an illegal scheme to a formal GC scheme is like comparing an apple to a pineapple).
Your chairman is a conman when he failed to inform the community of the limitations of an informal scheme.
Your chairman is a conman when he never inform the community what they "can and cannot do" under the local council guidelines while operating an informal scheme.
Your chairman is a conman when he instructs his security guards to stop and ask people for ID (such as MyKad or Driver's License), even though it is an offence.
Your chairman is a conman when he instructs his security guards to block the community or anyone that did not join his illegal "GnG" scheme. (Not having a residents' sticker or access card does not give RA the right to stop and check anyone - it is illegal, unlawful and an offence to do so).
Your chairman is a conman when he implements the prohibited card access system in non-private residences without sufficient consent and approval.
Your chairman is a conman when he breaks the laws to stop the community from moving in and out freely. (It is illegal and unlawful requiring residents to register at the guardhouse every time; it is also unlawful to stop the surrounding communities from access).
Your chairman is a conman when he has no regards for the laws, the rights of others and he thinks the entire residence belongs to him.
Your chairman is a conman when he does not uphold "the rule of law", has selfish agendas, and he imposes his beliefs, values and preferences on others.
Your chairman is a conman when he indirectly forced the community to subscribe to his illegal scheme.
Your chairman is a conman when he never considers Rukun Tetangga scheme as another option for the community. (He is not interested in KRT because it is FOC for the community - he can't make money from it.)
Above all, your RA chairman should have been more transparent first on the laws, guidelines, rules and regulations of what an informal scheme can and cannot do - and then let the community decide whether they want to sign up or not; not coerce them into joining without any knowledge whatsoever. If your chairman didn't do this before implementing his "GnG" scheme, then he is more likely a conman.

Drug traffickers are using houses within GnG and security personnel to store their "merchandise"
***********
Cops are calling for more voluntary patrol schemes (Kawasan Rukun Tetangga - Skim Rondaan Sukarela SRS)... not illegal gated communities!
Please note that only SRS members under KRT (Skim Rondaan Sukarela under the Rukun Tetangga Act 2012) were empowered to stop and check individuals and vehicles entering their areas.
Fyi, your RA's security guards were not empowered to do so.
Now, majority of residents want to implement Kawasan Rukun Tetangga (KRT) in their neighbourhood, not informal gated community !!

Beware of illegal GnG schemes by corrupt RAs that are flouting guidelines and making residents pay
Why do we categorized the schemes here as illegal? Because the RAs here have broken all the laws and went against the guidelines given by the local council.
The approved schemes were only meant for Guarded Neighborhood schemes and not for Gated Community schemes. (Even though they were originally legal Guarded Neighborhood schemes, but because the RAs have flouted the laws and guidelines, they have become illegal Gated Community schemes.)
So, hopefully now you understand the actual problem here.
Looks like none of the RAs follow any of the guidelines at all..

"Skim GnG yang tidak formal" (skim berpagar yg tidak sah) adalah perosak kepada kesejahteraan komuniti dan perpaduan masyarakat.
Semua Persatuan Penduduk digesa tubuhkan Kawasan Rukun Tetangga KRT dan Skim Rondaan Sukarela SRS untuk menggantikan skim berpagar yang tidak formal. Skim berpagar hanya dibenarkan di kediaman atau taman perumahan persendirian /strata sahaja.
Skim Komuniti Berpagar Informal yang semakin berleluasa di negara ini merupakan industri gelap atau "black economy" yang dapat menjana banyak keuntungan kepada syndicate gelap yang juga menggunakan perkhidmatan pengawal keselamatan daripada kongsi gelap.
