Circular No. 4/2021: Appointment at The Pejabat Tanah Dan Galian Johor

At the Conveyancing Sub-Committee’s meeting with Pejabat Tanah dan Galian, Johor [PTG Johor] on 22/02/2021, it was decided that with effect from 28/02/2021, applications for appointments are to be made through the legal firm. The appointment application is to be by filling out Google Form via the link . JBC Circular No. 100/20 refers.

However, regretfully, the Johore Bar Committee was informed by PTG that as at 1st March 2021 there were runners from certain legal firms that made presentation without any appointment or approval from Penolong Pengarah (Pendaftaran Hakmilik). Hence PTG has now decided that the runners of such firms shall not be given any appointment commencing from 2nd March 2021 until 9th March 2021.

Please be informed that only runners duly appointed by the legal firm with prior with PTG will be allowed to enter the building. With effect from 7th March 2021 runners intending to do land searches and strata title presentations without prior appointment shall only be allowed to “drop off” all their applications at a dropbox set up at the filter tent. All completed searches shall be put at the filter tent for collection. We enclose an extract of the text forwarded to us by PTG for your reference and information:

“Pentadbiran ini masih meneruskan operasi kaunter urusniaga melalui sistem temujanji ‘google form’ sebagaimana dipersetujui dalam mesyuarat PTG bersama JBC. Pentadbiran ini mendapati ada wakil firma / penyerah yang membuat perserahan pd hari ini Isnin, 1 Mac 2021 tanpa temujanji atau kebenaran daripada Penolong Pengarah (Pendaftaran Hakmilik). PTG memandang serius terhadap perkara ini kerana beranggapan ianya sebagai tindakan TIDAK MENGHORMATI PENTADBIRAN INI. Mereka juga turut melanggar arahan yang dikeluarkan. 

Oleh yang demikian, pentadbiran ini memutuskan agar mereka tidak diberikan peluang untuk membuat temujanji dalam tempoh seminggu bermula 2 Mac 2021. Hanya mereka yang mempunyai temujanji dibenarkan masuk ke bangunan PTG.  Mulai 7 Mac 2021, wakil penyerah yang ingin membuat carian tanpa temujanji hanya dibenarkan “drop off” di khemah saringan.  Carian yang telah siap akan diletakkan dikhemah yang sama untuk kutipan. Begitu juga urusan perserahan hakmilik strata.  Semuanya akan dilakukan secara ‘drop off’.”

Thank you.
