- On 08/09/2016, the Johore Bar Committee was invited by the Ketua Penolong Pengarah (Bahagian Hakmilik Strata), Pejabat Pengarah Tanah dan Galian Johor (PTG Johor) for a meeting to discuss issues relating to dealings concerning strata properties.
- We were informed that PTG Johor is in the process of completing its Electronic Strata Titles System which will be ready for implementation with effect from 01/01/2017.
- However, we were informed that from 01/12/2016 until 31/12/2016, PTG Johor will not accept any presentation of instrument of dealings, or application for a search or application to lodge a private caveat, on strata properties.
- PTG Johor will issue a more detailed circular on this matter and upon receipt of the same, we will extend a copy of the circular to all members.
- Meanwhile, members are urged to take note of this factor when having conduct of transactions on strata properties for which strata titles have been issued.
- Please be guided accordingly.
