WARNING on Theft

WARNING


(original web post 09/14/12):  Yes, I have much to catch up with and photos to load from the past to show and remind Unit Owners of what we have been tolerating and complaining about with no solutions from the management imposed upon us by the developer controlled Board.

I will also be posting texts and other comments as I have in the past sent to me. The following is a problem with the resident caring for their family member’s unit.

This individual has had several items stolen from their unit. Yes, small items they may be but how clever it is to steal small items as a slap annoyance to them. The locks have been changed several times. The locksmith the last time said to not change them anymore since they can always get in. Question is who are they?

The resident spoke to a broker for ShangriLa about this ongoing theft and intrusion and the broker smiled. The broker said this is COMMON in the Philippines and is “normal” and “nothing new.”

I would suggest everyone get a camera system if you notice anything missing or changes in your units. There are many companies out there with at least two past residents in the building working for such concerns commenting to me on the issues here. In fact, if we had a complete camera system in the building we would not need all the security we have and are paying way too much for. But, why is this not done to save money? Who makes money on the wasteful mismanagement with Unit Owner money?

Oh, the individual who has had this ongoing problem must carry and secure their valuables elsewhere due to this theft.

I have written about this theft and security problems before. While locks may mean little, I would still suggest dead bolts be installed as many units still lack these. Also, IF YOU DID NOT REPLACE YOUR LOCKS SINCE TURNOVER, SOMEONE HAS A COPY OF YOUR KEY!

I was told last year that thefts had not been reported properly. As I had also written of in the past, our unit was broken into prior to our arrival. The toilet was used as discovered by our representative checking in on the units. I had contacted all those involved with the building including the insurance company. But, I stopped short of calling the police since our representative feared for their own safety. Danger is here!!!
