SUAC regrets to inform our residents that we had a break-in earlier today at JSP 5/14. This particular house backs on to JSP 5/1 (our main road). The alarm was not armed and as such could not provide our guards any warning. So sorry...

Bids for Construction of 2 Guard Houses
SUAC invites bids from resident contractors for the construction of 2 guard houses. Please see images below for specifications. Further discussions will be held on a one to one basis.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Why has the frequency of patrolling been reduced?
A: The frequency of patrolling has not been reduced, however, the
patrolling guards have an added task of tailing each and every
car (without stickers) that enters our streets to ensure they are
headed for the destination they stated at our sentry points.
Q: I’ve noticed a canopy and a guard stationed at the intersection
of 5/5 and 5/6. What is the purpose of such?
A: The leakage that can occur from 5/4 and 5/19 is too
massive for us to ignore. Recent criminal activity occurring in
Phase 4 demonstrates the need for us to be more vigilant.
Q: Why is Post 3 closed?
A: Post 3 comes under the jurisdiction of Phase 4. SUAC has no
control over its’ operations.
Q: When will the guard houses be built?
A: SUAC has cleared two of the three stage approval process. We
are now awaiting the final stage approval from the Land Office.
The delay in the construction of such is primarily due to SUACs
decision to fully adhere and comply with all rules and by-laws
governing such construction.
Q: Which company has been awarded the contract for the
construction of the guard houses?
A: To maintain transparency, SUAC is inviting bids from contractor
residents for the construction of our guard houses. Details will
posted on our blog shortly.
Q: What changes are planned to enhance our security?
A: Once our guard houses are built, all cars without stickers
will be subject to more thorough checks. Drivers of such
vehicles will be required to surrender their driver’s license
for CCTV scanning.
Q: How does SUAC stand financially?
A: Our current monthly expenses are more or less in line with our
collections. SUAC runs its’ operations based on the number of
paying residents. To avoid any financial deficit, the number of
guards is commensurate with the fees collected.
Q: Do committee members pay their share of security fees?
A: Absolutely. Committee members volunteer their time serving
the community and contribute in a very special way to ensure
that our residents, families and streets are safe.
Q: I recently stopped paying the security fees, why was my
“GUARDED” gate tag removed?
A: As clearly stated on the back of each tag, SUAC reserves the
right to remove the gate tags upon non-payment of security
fees. This also aids our patrolling guards in identifying our
paying members thereby ensuring that only members are
afforded the relevant services.
Q: What additional steps are taken over holiday periods to ensure
our safety?
A: Guards are restricted from taking days off during such periods
and are advised to be more vigilant. In addition, contractors
and their staff working in our ‘taman’ are prohibited from
spending nights at the houses in which they work.
SUAC – making it all come together…
