Meeting with DBKK on 5.5.2025
Since 2022, I have lodged multiple complaints with DBKK that went unanswered. On April 30, 2025, I emailed the Director’s Personal Assistant (see email below). To my surprise, DBKK Director Mr. Lifred Wong agreed to meet. The meeting took place on May 5, 2025, attended by the surveyor who submitted the as-built drawing, the architect (father and son), six DBKK officers, including Mr. Lifred, and myself.
During the meeting, Mr. Lifred noted the heights of the road opposite Unit S9 (House No. 15) and the house platform on a whiteboard. The as-built survey recorded heights in meters, converted to feet using the factor 3.2808. The diagram indicated the road height opposite the driveway as 32.11m (105.35 feet), marked with a yellow circle, and the house platform height as 32.38m (106.23 feet), marked with a red circle. The height difference was calculated as 32.38m – 32.11m = 0.27m (or 106.23 – 105.35 = 0.88 feet).
When asked if this matched the on-site conditions, I clarified that the actual height difference exceeds 4 feet. Mr. Lifred instructed the surveyor to conduct a new survey and submit the updated figures to DBKK.
Since 2022, I have maintained that the as-built survey submitted to DBKK for the issuance of the occupancy certificate was falsified. I am now prepared to take this matter to court to determine whether the occupancy certificate was indeed fabricated.
Is it possible to have the issued occupancy certificate invalidated? If successful, this would mark another historic achievement in my life, as I have accomplished several times before.
My next post will be on the follow-up meeting held at DBKK on 11.6.2025.i. The 32.38 marked in red is the platform height
ii. The 32.11 circled in yellow is the height of the road level opposite the driveway of unit S9.
iii. The green indicates the gate to unit S9.
iv. Bear in mind that the image below is copied from the as-built survey extended to me on 15.11.2022 by DBKK. A similar as-built drawing was forwarded to me by Lembaga Arkitek Malaysia that was extended to them (LAM) by the architect.
Here is my email to the DBKK Director's PA.

Subject: Complaint about Construction at Vistana Heights – Tuan Pengarah DBKK
Dear Puan Malissa,
Further to our telephone conversation this morning, I would be grateful if you could kindly make an appointment for me with the Pengarah.
I have been complaining to DBKK, the architect of Vistana Heights, the developer, LPPB, LJS, LAM etc for over 3 years.
Repeated requests to meet LPPB’s GM and the developer have failed.
I am left with no choice but to bring this matter to court, which is something I would prefer not to do.
My main complaint is about the fabricated as-built development plan to obtain the occupancy certificate.
DBKK has issued the OC based on a fabricated as-built survey.
All my attempts to resolve this matter amicably have failed.
