Analysis of Hindu Temple issue

 1. Ownership & Land Title

• National Land Code 1965 (NLC): Under the NLC, all land dealings must be properly registered to confer ownership. Since Jakel legally purchased the land, and it was later bequeathed as Waqf land, this establishes clear legal ownership in favor of the intended Masjid.

• Federal Territory Land Status: The land was originally under the jurisdiction of the Selangor State Government but was surrendered and officially declared on 01 Februari 1974 to become part of the Federal Territory of Kuala Lumpur. This surrender, unless successfully challenged, makes DBKL (Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur) the rightful administrator of the land.

2. Squatter Rights & Adverse Possession

• No Adverse Possession in Malaysia: Under the National Land Code (NLC) 1965, there is no provision for squatters or trespassers to gain legal ownership of land through prolonged occupation. Unlike some jurisdictions that recognize “adverse possession,” Malaysian law upholds the Torrens system, where ownership is strictly based on registration.

• Limitation Act 1953: The statutory limitation period for land recovery is 12 years (Section 9). However, since the temple never had legal title and was never recognized by the government as the rightful landowner, this limitation defense may not be available.

• Doctrine of Laches (Delay Defeats Equity): Even if the temple has been on the land for over 130 years, their failure to take legal steps to regularize their position or obtain a title means they may be estopped from claiming any equitable interest.

3. Allegations of Illegality & Mischief in Land Transfer

• Challenging the  KL Land Transfer: The temple authorities argue that the surrender of land from Selangor to the Federal Territory was tainted with illegality. However, unless they have substantive evidence, such a claim is weak given that the transfer was done as a sovereign governmental act.

• Sale by DBKL: Any allegations of impropriety in DBKL’s sale of the land must be substantiated with concrete proof of fraud, misrepresentation, or failure to follow legal procedures under the NLC and the Local Government Act 1976.

4. Public Authority Protection Act 1948

• Statutory Immunity: Any action challenging the Federal Government’s land transfer or DBKL’s actions may be barred by the Public Authorities Protection Act 1948, which limits legal actions against public authorities to 36 months (3 years) from the date of the alleged wrongful act.

5. Malaysia Hindu Sangam Guidelines on Places of Worship

• No Automatic Right to Temple Land: The Malaysia Hindu Sangam Guidelines require temples to be legally recognized and registered before being granted land. If the temple was never granted official recognition or a land title by the Selangor or Federal Government, it does not have a legal right to remain on the land.

• Unauthorized Alms Collection: The collection of alms and donations for 130 years does not confer any proprietary rights over the land.

6. Equitable Principles: Clean Hands Doctrine

• Those Who Seek Equity Must Come with Clean Hands: The temple operators are alleging mischief by the government but have themselves remained on the land without legal basis. Their failure to obtain a land title or lease for over a century weakens their case under equity principles.

• Delay Defeats Equity: The temple authorities never formally applied for the land or took legal steps to claim ownership. Given this, their inaction for over 130 years bars them from claiming equitable relief.

7. Legal Remedies for the Waqf Beneficiary (Masjid)

• Eviction Proceedings: Since the temple is illegally occupying the land, DBKL, the successors-in-title to the deceased owner or the waqf trustee can initiate an eviction action under the NLC and seek a court order to remove the squatters.

• Injunction & Declaration: The registered owner may apply for a declaratory order affirming the land’s status as waqf property and an injunction to prevent further occupation by the temple authorities.

• Compensation for Unlawful Occupation: The temple authorities never paid consideration for their stay. The rightful owner may seek damages or backdated rental compensation for their unauthorized use of the land.

Conclusion

• The temple has no legal or equitable claim to the land, having occupied it unlawfully for 130 years without securing a title.

• The owner, as the rightful administrator, has the power to enforce eviction.

• The owner should proceed with legal action to evict the squatters and uphold the land’s religious bequest status (waqf) for the masjid.

• Any challenge by the temple on the basis of mischief or illegality is likely to fail due to the Public Authorities Protection Act’s time limit and lack of clean hands under equity principles.

Can the Temple get compensation or alternative land?

The temple is not legally entitled to compensation or alternative land because:

1. The Temple Was Built Illegally

• The temple was erected without legal title or approval from the landowner.

• Under Section 425 of the National Land Code (NLC) 1965, unauthorized occupation of state or private land is an offence.

• Since the temple never had lawful ownership or lease, they cannot claim compensation for losing something they never legally owned.

2. No Legal or Equitable Interest in the Land

• Doctrine of Clean Hands: The temple must prove they have a rightful claim before seeking compensation, but they have been in unlawful possession for over 130 years.

• The doctrine of laches (delay defeats equity) applies—since they never asserted a legal right over the land for more than a century, their claim is weakened.

• The Limitation Act 1953 prevents historical claims over land that were not pursued within the statutory period.

3. Precedents & Government Discretion

• The Malaysian government may offer alternative land or compensation as a goodwill gesture, but it is not a legal obligation.

• In past cases, unauthorized places of worship were sometimes relocated through negotiations, but this depends entirely on government policy and not on legal entitlement.

• Malaysia Hindu Sangam guidelines require temples to be registered and built on legally acquired land, which this temple failed to do.

4. No Basis for Compensation from Jakel’s Estate

• Jakel was a bona fide purchaser and had no duty to compensate an illegal squatter.

• His estate has the legal right to enforce ownership and request vacant possession.

Conclusion

The temple has no automatic legal right to compensation or alternative land.  

Any request for such arrangements would have to be made through negotiation with the government, not through a legal claim.

The temple claim as a heritage or historical site does not automatically grant it legal protection, especially since it was illegally constructed on private land. Under Malaysian law, heritage or antiquities protection requires formal registration and legal recognition.

---

1. Did the Temple Apply for Protection as a Heritage Site?

• Heritage status is not automatic:

  • The temple must be officially recognized as a heritage site under the relevant laws, such as the National Heritage Act 2005 (Act 645).

  • Without such registration, the temple remains an illegal structure, regardless of how long it has existed.

• The temple operators never applied for heritage status, meaning it lacks legal protection as a historical site.

---

2. Is the Antiquities Act Applicable?

• The Antiquities Act 1976 (Act 168) was repealed and replaced by the National Heritage Act 2005.

• Under the National Heritage Act, a site can be declared a heritage site only if:

  1. It is registered with the Commissioner of Heritage.

  2. It meets historical, cultural, or architectural significance criteria.

  3. It is legally owned, or consent is obtained from the landowner.

Since the temple:
✅ Was never registered as a heritage site under the National Heritage Act.
✅ Was illegally built on land without permission.
✅ Has no ownership rights or legal recognition.

👉 It cannot claim protection under heritage laws.

---

3. Precedents & Government Discretion

• The Malaysian government has relocated temples before, even if they were historically significant, when they were illegally built.

• Example: The Sri Maha Mariamman Temple (Seafield) case – despite claims of heritage, the court upheld the landowner’s right to possession.

• Courts do not protect illegal squatters, even if the structure is religious or historical.

---

4. Conclusion

• The temple cannot rely on heritage laws to justify its illegal occupation.

• Without official heritage status, it remains an illegal structure that can be demolished or relocated.

• Any demand for compensation or alternative land has no legal basis but may be considered only at the government’s discretion.

  
   
  

Surat aduan kepada PBT Pembinaan Kuil Haram

Nota : sila pinda menurut kesesuaian. Surat ini adalah wakaf saya kepada umat Islam Malaysia.

Kepada:

Datuk Bandar Shah Alam
Unit Penguatkuasaan
Majlis Bandaraya Shah Alam (MBSA)

Tuan/Puan,

Aduan Mengenai Pembinaan Rumah Ibadat Tanpa Kebenaran di Kawasan Awam

Saya, [Nama Penuh], No. Kad Pengenalan [No. Kad Pengenalan], penduduk di [Alamat Penuh], dengan ini membuat aduan mengenai pembinaan rumah ibadat tanpa kebenaran di kawasan awam yang terletak di Jalan [Nama Jalan], Seksyen [Nombor Seksyen], Shah Alam.

Untuk makluman pihak tuan/puan, terdapat individu yang telah mendirikan peralatan sembahyang di bawah pokok besar di kawasan tersebut. Disertakan laporan polis bertarikh [              ] serta beberapa keping gambar dilokasi kejadian yang jelas menunjukkan tindakan tidak bertanggungjawab ini.

Perkara ini menimbulkan kebimbangan kerana ia boleh bukan sahaja menghalang laluan, namun mengganggu aktiviti serta laluan orang ramai di kawasan tersebut dan berpotensi menyebabkan  orang awam tersentuh atau merosakkan peralatan sembahyang tersebut.

Selain itu, kejadian ini juga menimbulkan kegusaran dihati kalangan penduduk sekitar kerana perkara ini boleh membawa kepada pembinaan struktur kekal tanpa kebenaran. Terdapat juga kebimbangan penduduk bahawa kewujudan rumah ibadat tanpa kelulusan, khususnya kuil hindu, menimbulkan ketidakharmonian dalam kejiranan kerana terdapat kes dukuan yang menunjukkan ketidakpatuhan terhadap Kanun Tanah Negara secara sengaja oleh pihak berkaitan. Pelanggaran undang-undang sebegini bukan sahaja menjejaskan ketenteraman masyarakat tetapi juga mengundang masalah perundangan dan menjadikan tindakan penguatkuasaan menjadi yang lebih rumit pada masa hadapan.

Menurut "Garis Panduan Kuil Hindu Kebangsaan" yang dikeluarkan oleh Malaysia Hindu Sangam, pembinaan kuil hendaklah mematuhi peraturan dan undang-undang yang ditetapkan oleh pihak berkuasa tempatan serta tidak mengganggu ketenteraman awam. Selain itu, garis panduan tersebut menekankan bahawa pembinaan kuil perlu dilaksanakan atas tanah yang mereka miliki secara sah serta mendapat kelulusan daripada pihak berkuasa tempatan dan tidak dibina di atas tanah milik Kerajaan/orang lain tanpa terlebih dahulu memperolehi kebenaran. (malaysiahindusangam.org)

Tindakan membina rumah ibadat secara sewenang-wenangnya juga adalah bertentangan dengan dasar awam. Dalam kes Lim Toong Yen lwn. Sasitharan K Govindan & Yang Lain [2018] 1 LNS 1352, Mahkamah Tinggi Johor telah memutuskan bahawa pembinaan rumah ibadat tanpa kebenaran pemilik tanah merupakan satu pencerobohan. Dalam kes ini, pihak Defendan mendakwa bahawa kuil mereka telah wujud lebih dari 50 tahun, namun bukti menunjukkan kuil tersebut sebenarnya hanya dibina pada tahun 2011 tanpa sebarang kebenaran daripada pemilik tanah. Mahkamah telah mengarahkan kuil haram tersebut dirobohkan kerana dibina di atas tanah persendirian tanpa kebenaran yang sah.

Keputusan kes ini jelas menunjukkan bahawa pembinaan rumah ibadat tanpa kelulusan yang sah bukan sahaja melanggar undang-undang tanah, malah menimbulkan risiko ketidakharmonian antara kaum dalam masyarakat. Oleh itu, saya berharap pihak tuan/puan dapat mengambil tindakan tegas untuk mengelakkan kejadian serupa daripada berulang serta memastikan bahawa dasar awam dan undang-undang sedia ada dipatuhi serta terpelihara. Masyarakat setempat tidak ingin melihat kes yang menimpa Allayarham Adib di Subang Jaya dan kejadian yang berlaku kepada tanah wakaf Allahyarham Jakel di Kuala Lumpur berulang. Saya yakin pihak Majlis Bandaraya Shah Alam mempunyai bidangkuasa penuh untuk bertindak untuk merobohkan binaan haram tersebut.

Tindakan menunggu dan membiarkan perlanggaran oleh pihak ini tanpa tindakan segera akan hanya mewujudkan kacau-ganggu serta dijadikan alasan bahawa bahagian tanah yang diduduki secara haram telah lama didiami tanpa sebarang bantahan dan dijadikan hujah bahawa hartanah tersebut perlu dikeluarkan geran pemilikan oleh sipenceroboh, seterusnya menafikan hak pemilik asal hartanah tersebut, walaupun ianya bertentangan dengan Kanun Tanah Negara.    

Sehubungan itu, saya memohon agar pihak tuan/puan dapat mengambil tindakan segera untuk menangani isu ini. Kerjasama dan tindakan pantas daripada pihak tuan/puan amatlah dihargai.

Sekian, terima kasih.

Yang benar,
[Nama Penuh]

Kes rayuan YB Syed Saddiq

Kes Syed Saddiq melibatkan 4 pertuduhan jenayah iaitu pecah amanah, penyalahgunaan harta, dan pengubahan wang haram. Saya akan cuba mengulas dari sudut prinsip perundangan dan potensi isu dalam rayuan beliau.

Sebagai ketua, dia keseorangan... bukan senang-senang nak delegate tugas kepada orang bawahan. Juga bukan mudah nak uruskan dana parti politik. Undang-undang mengenai dana parti politik pun masih samar-samar namun sekurang-kurangnnya dia telah mengistiharkan kesemua harta yang dia miliki - pada hemat saya adalah satu faktor mitigasi kes. RAMAI lagi YB yang belum atau enggan istiharkan harta... kenapa? Kenapa sorok? Kalau jadi macam kes ni baru kome padan muka & langsung tiada pembelaan!

1. Isu Pecah Amanah (Seksyen 406 Kanun Keseksaan)

Pecah amanah adalah satu kesalahan di mana seseorang yang diamanahkan dengan wang atau harta menyalahgunakan kepercayaan untuk kepentingan sendiri atau pihak lain. Dalam kes ini, Syed Saddiq didakwa bersubahat dengan Penolong Bendahari Armada dalam menyalahgunakan RM1 juta

Isu utama dalam rayuan:

Adakah cukup bukti bahawa beliau secara aktif bersubahat?

Adakah terdapat elemen niat (mens rea) untuk menyalahgunakan wang tersebut?

Adakah prosedur pengurusan dana dalam Armada dipatuhi, atau wujud kelemahan dalaman yang boleh menimbulkan keraguan terhadap pertuduhan?

2. Penyalahgunaan Harta (Seksyen 403 Kanun Keseksaan)

Bagi pertuduhan kedua, Syed Saddiq dikatakan telah menggunakan RM120,000 daripada akaun Armada Bumi Bersatu Enterprise untuk kegunaan sendiri.

Isu utama dalam rayuan:

Adakah beliau mempunyai kuasa atau autoriti sah untuk menggunakan wang tersebut?

Adakah terdapat bukti bahawa wang tersebut benar-benar digunakan untuk kepentingan peribadi?

Adakah terdapat unsur kesilapan prosedur yang menyebabkan beliau menggunakan dana tersebut secara tidak sengaja?

3. Pengubahan Wang Haram (Seksyen 4(1) Akta AMLA 2001)

Beliau juga didakwa memindahkan RM50,000 ke dalam akaun Amanah Saham Bumiputera miliknya yang dikatakan sebagai hasil daripada aktiviti haram.

Isu utama dalam rayuan:

Adakah terdapat bukti jelas bahawa wang tersebut berasal daripada aktiviti jenayah?

Adakah elemen “kesalahan asal” (predicate offense) dapat dibuktikan? Dalam konteks AMLA, jika kesalahan asal gagal dibuktikan dengan kukuh, maka pertuduhan pengubahan wang haram juga boleh dipersoalkan.

Adakah beliau mempunyai justifikasi sah untuk transaksi tersebut, seperti ia dilakukan atas sebab pelaburan biasa?

4. Kesan Keputusan Mahkamah Tinggi dan Prospek Rayuan

Mahkamah Tinggi telah menjatuhkan hukuman yang agak berat - 7 tahun penjara, 2 sebatan dan denda RM10 juta.

Dalam rayuan, panel Mahkamah Rayuan boleh:

Mengesahkan sabitan dan hukuman.

Mengurangkan hukuman jika mendapati terdapat faktor mitigasi (contohnya, usia muda, peranan dalam kesalahan, atau jika ada unsur kelemahan dalam siasatan).

Membatalkan sabitan jika terdapat keraguan yang signifikan terhadap bukti pendakwaan atau jika wujud kecacatan dalam prosiding Mahkamah Tinggi.

Kesimpulan

Rayuan ini berpusat pada sama ada bukti yang dikemukakan di Mahkamah Tinggi cukup kukuh untuk menyokong sabitan terhadap Syed Saddiq. Mahkamah Rayuan akan menilai semula unsur-unsur niat jenayah (mens rea), bukti fizikal (actus reus), serta aspek prosedur undang-undang bagi memastikan keadilan ditegakkan.

Kemungkinan:

1. Sabitan dikekalkan, hukuman dikurangkan – Ini sering berlaku dalam kes di mana bersalah tetapi faktor mitigasi diambil kira.
2. Sabitan dibatalkan jika wujud keraguan yang munasabah.
3. Hukuman dipinda berdasarkan elemen yang lebih ringan dalam undang-undang.
   

Isu tawaran kerja secara lisan

Ada hamba Allah bertanyakan isu memproleh tawaran kerja, tapi tidak dibuat secara hitam putih. Dia menerima tawaran kerja itu sedangkan ada tawaran kerja majikan lain, namun malang menimpa apabila pihak yang menawarkan kerja secara lisan tiba-tiba senyap...... dan tempat anda digantikan dengan calon lain!

Ada antara kita pernah mengalaminya - menerima tawaran kerja secara lisan dan merasakan seolah-olah semuanya sudah pasti. Namun,  tawaran lisan tidak jaminan anda betul mendapat pekerjaan yang ditawarkan. Selagi anda tidak menerima tawaran kerja tersebut secara bertulis, segalanya masih boleh berubah, mengakibatkan anda mengakami kerugian masa dan ganguan emosi.

Faedah Tawaran kerja Secara Bertulis?

Menjelaskan Jangkaan: Tawaran bertulis menyatakan butiran penting seperti jumlah gaji, faedah, dan tarikh mula dengan jelas, caruman KWSP, PERKESO, jumlah cuti tahunan, keistimewaan perubataan untuk pekerja dan sekiranya butiran adalah jelas, semua ini boleh mengelakkan sebarang salah faham antara anda dan majikan.

Perlindungan Undang-Undang: Tanpa kontrak bertulis, anda terdedah kepada risiko jika majikan mengubah keputusan mereka.

Memastikan Kedudukan Anda: Pasaran kerja sentiasa berubah, dan tawaran bertulis mengesahkan kedudukan anda. Jangan terlalu awal untuk meraikan kejayaan mendapat sesuatu pekerjaan, pastikan semuanya sudah rasmi dahulu.

Tatacara Mengendalikan Tawaran Lisan

Mohon dengan Sopan: Selepas menerima tawaran lisan, ucapkan terima kasih kepada majikan dan minta tawaran bertulis untuk semakan rasmi. Anda boleh berikan alasan ianya diperlukan untuk menyokong permohonan pembelian kenderaan ke tempat kerja atau nyatakan bahawa anda juga sedang menunggu jawapan tawaran kerja dari pihak lain.

Perjelaskan Butiran: Jangan takut untuk bertanya jika ada perkara yang kurang jelas sebelum anda menandatangani kontrak.

Kekal Profesional: Mendapat tawaran kerja adalah sesuatu yang menggembirakan, tetapi pastikan anda kekal tenang dan profesional sehingga semuanya disahkan secara rasmi.

Jika anda menerima tawaran kerja, pastikan ia diperkukuhkan secara bertulis sebelum membuat sebarang keputusan besar.

Summary : Hard Disks resurgence (Forbes report)

Market Recovery: The general recession in HDD demand that began in 2022 and continued through most of 2023 appears to have ended in 2024. ​

Legacy HDD Decline: The long-term decline in demand for legacy HDD applications, such as personal computers and consumer electronics, continued in 2024 due to replacement by SSDs and cloud storage. Unit shipments of these legacy HDDs were down over 20% year over year. 

Nearline HDD Growth: Unit volume shipments of high-capacity nearline HDDs are projected to have increased about 42% in 2024 from 2023. 

Overall HDD Shipments: Overall HDD unit shipments in 2024 are projected to be about 2% higher than in 2023, at approximately 124 million units. This marks the first year-over-year shipment growth since 2010. 

Capacity and Revenue: HDD capacity shipments are estimated to increase about 39% from 2023 to 2024, reaching 1.2 zettabytes. Gross HDD revenues may increase by about 45%, totaling $19.5 billion in 2024 compared to 2023. 

Trend Forecast on HDD Sales:

The HDD market is experiencing a resurgence, primarily driven by the increasing demand for high-capacity storage solutions in data centers and AI applications. Both Seagate Technology and Western Digital have reported significant profit growth attributed to this demand:​

Seagate Technology: Seagate's mass-capacity drives, particularly suited for AI training data and AI-generated content, have surged to account for 83% of its hard drive sales in the latest quarter. Cloud-computing demand for nearline storage doubled year-over-year as of June 2024, and fiscal 2025 is expected to see continued expansion. 

Western Digital: Western Digital reported a 153% year-over-year increase in cloud revenue, reaching $2.2 billion. This surge is attributed to the proliferation of the AI data cycle, highlighting the growing need for storage solutions in AI and data-intensive applications. 

These trends suggest a positive outlook for HDD sales, with expectations of continued growth in the near future.

Projected HDD Sales Over the Next 5 Years (2025-2030)

The HDD market is expected to see mixed growth, with increasing demand for high-capacity enterprise storage but declining consumer HDD sales. Below is a 5-year forecast based on current industry trends:

Key Factors Influencing HDD Sales

1. Enterprise Demand for Nearline Storage - Cloud storage providers and data centers will drive HDD shipments, with AI and big data applications increasing storage needs.
2. Declining Consumer HDD Market - Personal computers and consumer electronics are shifting to SSDs, reducing the demand for traditional HDDs.
3. Technology Advancements - Innovations like HAMR (Heat-Assisted Magnetic Recording) and MAMR (Microwave-Assisted Magnetic Recording) will increase HDD capacity while reducing cost per TB.
4. Price Advantage Over SSDs - HDDs remain more cost-effective for bulk storage, ensuring steady demand in enterprise applications.
5. Emerging AI Storage Needs - AI workloads generate vast amounts of unstructured data, fueling HDD usage in large-scale storage solutions.

---

Conclusion

• Enterprise HDD sales will continue to grow through 2028, driven by nearline storage for cloud and AI applications.
• HDD storage capacity (Zettabytes) will increase significantly, even as unit sales stabilize, due to larger-capacity drives (30TB+ HDDs by 2028).
• By 2030, consumer HDDs will decline further, while enterprise HDDs maintain a steady market presence.
  

HDD Shipments: Shows a rise until 2028, followed by a decline due to decreasing consumer HDD demand.
Storage Capacity: Continues increasing as high-capacity enterprise HDDs dominate the market.

Komen penulis, way back in 1998, penulis pernah handle kes sebuah syarikat yang kononnya menawarkan perkhidmatan Time Sharing vacation home. Yang menariknya, syarikat itu kononnya beroperasi dan memiliki beberapa buah apartment seakan homestay untuk jemaah umrah tinggal, so kiranya kalau kita join jadi member, adalah rumah kita tinggal semasa mengerjakan umrah di tanah suci, bolehlah kurangkan belanja & tumpukan perhatian kepada ibadah..... tapi sayang, itulah hanya impian yang berkecai menjadi debu, kerana semuanya helah mengaut untung daripada orang pencen. Syarikat hilang daripada radar setelah berjaya mengaut dan memakan duit secara haram bertopengkan agama. Penulis sendiri tak dapat menahan air mata mendengar aduan klien ...kerana masa tu penulis sendiri pun baru pulang daripada mengerjakan umrah.

Kome Tanya, Ambe Jawab : Isu Pengambilan Tanah oleh Kerajaan

S: Selamat sejahtera. Saya ada pertanyaan pasal isu pembelian tanah kami oleh pihak kerajaan. Offer letter dah keluar tapi menurut info yang kami dapat, duit hanya akan disalurkan ke jabatan apabila kami bersetuju tandatangan offer letter tersebut. Masalahnya, dalam offer letter tersebut ada perkara yang kami tak setuju dan nak pihak kerajaan review kembali tetapi pegawai yang berurusan dengan kami kata,better sign dan terima offer barulah fight untuk review kembali. Sebab sekarang kalau kami tak sign offer tersebut,duit tidak akan disalurkan untuk hal pembelian tanah dan hal ini akan melambatkan lagi proses jual beli. Kami nak minta pendapat adakah memang begini prosedur apabila berurusan dengan pihak kerajaan yang nak beli tanah kita?

Ambe Jawab: 

Kita ada Akta Pengambilan Tanah 1960 (Akta 486). Proses pengambilan tanah oleh pihak kerajaan perlu mengikut prosedur yang telah ditetapkan. Kes terbaru Semantan Estate Sdn Bhd lawan Kerajaan Malaysia (kerajaan masih dalam proses merayu) adalah contoh kes kesukaran yang dihadapi kerajaan kerana tersalah langkah dalam proses pengambilan tanah.

1. Notis dan Tawaran Pampasan

Apabila tanah diambil alih oleh kerajaan, Pejabat Tanah akan mengeluarkan Notis Tawaran Pampasan yang menyatakan jumlah pampasan yang ditawarkan. Jika pemilik tanah bersetuju dengan jumlah pampasan yang ditawarkan, mereka boleh menandatangani borang tersebut, dan pembayaran akan diproses.

2. Hak untuk Membantah Pampasan

Jika anda tidak bersetuju dengan jumlah pampasan atau mana-mana syarat dalam tawaran tersebut, anda berhak untuk membuat bantahan (seingat saya) dalam masa 6 mingguselepas menerima tawaran (ada borang penerimaan perlu diisi).

Jika terdapat pertikaian mengenai jumlah pampasan atau syarat lain, kes tersebut akan dibawa ke Mahkamah Tinggi untuk keputusan lanjut. Anda perlu isi Borang N Akta - sila rujuk Pejabat Tanah dan berikan sebab bantahan anda untuk pertimbangan Mahkamah:

Dated this............. day of ................................, 20..........

...........................................

Signature of the applicant

3. Proses Pembayaran Pampasan

Pegawai yang menguruskan kes anda mengatakan bahawa anda perlu menandatangani tawaran dahulu sebelum boleh membuat bantahan. Namun, ini bukanlah satu-satunya cara. Sekiranya anda tidak bersetuju dan telah membuat bantahan secara rasmi, kerajaan tetap perlu menyediakan dana pampasan, tetapi jumlah akhir hanya akan diputuskan oleh mahkamah.

4. Implikasi Tidak Menandatangani Tawaran

Jika anda tidak menandatangani tawaran tersebut dan tidak membuat bantahan rasmi dalam tempoh yang diberikan, kerajaan boleh meneruskan pengambilan tanah berdasarkan jumlah pampasan yang ditentukan oleh pihak berkuasa. Namun, jika anda telah membantah melalui saluran yang betul, hak anda masih dilindungi dan mahkamah akan menentukan pampasan yang wajar. Baca - wajar tak semestinya dapat lebih banyak daripada tawaran awal. Dapat kurang pun boleh jadi juga bergantung kepada penilaian.

Maaf, saya dah terlalu lama berhenti menjadi pengamal undang-undang, sila mendapatkan nasihat daripada seorang peguam hartanah / pakar Akta ini untuk memastikan anda tidak mengalami kerugian. Bantahan secara diam tak bersetuju tanpa tindakan mengisi borang bantahan di atas tak di ambil kira.
