This is a sensitive topic for many people, but one that I feel warranted to voice out about. I understand that many residents feel that the gated & guarded community initiatives give them an added sense of security, but I also wish to highlight that with more and more roads closed, these schemes alleviate one problem and create another - traffic jam. 

PJ roads were designed from the onset without gated and guarded communities in mind. When neighbourhoods take matters into their own hands and close roads as they wish, they obstruct the freeflow of traffic in the vicinity.

I am not downplaying the importance of security, but I believe it should not come at the expense of convenience and our quality of life.

This video was edited in response to an initiative by the #PJKita Facebook Group calling for Petaling Jaya folks to chip in suggestions to make PJ a better place to live in for all of us.

For PJ people, head over to www.facebook.com/pjkita and give these guys a 'Like' for their efforts.
