I have been staying in Shah Alam for more than 9 months now. All I can say is, I love it. Here's why.
- A lot less traffic.
- It is close to major highways, KESAS, LKSA, Federal Highway, Shapadu, Lekas and NKVE.
- Plenty of parking in front of Maybank Kota Kemuning. Try that in Taipan!
- EPF has plenty of parking, and cheap too.
- Telekom Malaysia has its own building, with ample FREE parking.
- General Post Office is here - and yes, it has lots of free parking too.
- We have Tesco. Giant Hypermarket is being built.
- We have lots of KFC, McD and even a Burger King outlet. (no, don't eat too much fast food)
In contrast, here's what you get in USJ:
- The forever jam in Jalan Kewajipan, especially the Giant - Summit - KESAS intersection.
- Too many schools along Jalan Tujuan, causing jams.
- Hardly any undeveloped space.
- All offices are in shoplots.
- Taipan is badly conjested, yet morons put up more buildings.
- USJ 9 is also badly conjested.
- Lack of government offices (EPF for example)
- LDP is always conjested.
- Toll at KESAS to KL, and LDP to Puchong.
- Houses are getting way to expensive
- Number one spot for dengue
Sime UEP has made a royal mess out of USJ. Every corner has been developed. Stuffed. Mind you, there is no major improvement in infrastructure. Still two roads in and out of USJ - namely Jalan Kewajipan and Jalan Tujuan. All access roads have at least two traffic lights. That's the killer.
Sure, they have some new fly overs near SS15 along Jalan Kewajipan, but the traffic lights at the KESAS junction is still there. You see a new bus station? Or a new bus stand? Nope.
This is what happens when greedy bastards run the place. Build as much as they can. They are still building some houses near Jalan Kewajipan / LDP. And they want more bungalows at the park / lake in SS15. All the town council can say is....approve approve approve. And the bastards and stuffing as many condos and shopping complexes near the KTM station - where the new Empire shopping mall is. You see the KTM station getting bigger? Nope. Bastards aren't they? OK - go blame KTM for the station, but do they build their own bus stops? Or cater for public transport? Or a good taxi rank? Nope. I wouldn't even want to imagine how conjested Subang Jaya will be with all the new condos occupied.
I must note that under the new government, the few bungalows in the padang near my house there has not started work. Apparently MPSJ didn't give out the build as you like order. So, voting for a new government did help.
In short, Subang Jaya and USJ is nothing but a mad house. Good for retired folks, as they move about after peak hours. But if you are a working professional, I suggest Shah Alam.
