AN abandoned project in Section 20, Shah Alam, will soon be revived by a new developer.

Work on the Sri Puteri apartments, which was stalled for five years, is expected to begin in December and completed in 36 months.

Shah Alam Mayor Mazalan Md Noor said he hoped the new developer - Syarikat Semangat Ulung Sdn Bhd - would bring some relief to its buyers.

“We want the house buyers to contact the new developer and give their go ahead so that they can start work,” he said.

“At least 86% of the buyers must agree to the change of developer and so far 70% of them had consented.”

Mazalan said the project started in 2003 but was abandoned a year later.

He added that 65% of the structure had been completed.

Mazalan added that the public had filed numerous complaints on the stalled project which became an eyesore in the area.

On March 31, StarMetro highlighted the issue and exposed the building as a haunt for drug addicts and an ideal breeding ground for mosquitos.
