CDA opening new sector F-13 soon

http://www.express.com.pk/images/NP_ISB/20091019/Sub_Images/.gif

ABD replied on Monday, October 19, 2009 05:59 PM PST 

The end result of this sector F-13 will be not different as newly balloted sector I-16 had. Sector F-13 was announced by Nawaz Shrif government in 1996/97 for overseas Pakistanis @ USD 50,000 for 500 yards plot but badly failed so will happen this time.

CDA has to develop the sectors they have already sold out I-14,I-15,I-16, E-12 and D-12 to restore their credibility and to gain people faith but this department is shameless now.

CDA identifies land for housing in I-16

AND THATS EXACTLY WHAT CDA IS DOING .CDA IS RESTOING ITS CREDIBITTY BY PAYING ATTENTION TO SECTORS MENTIONED ABOVE .

CDA IS RESTORING ITS CREDIBILITY HATS OFF TO NEW CDA CHAIRMAN

F11 replied on Monday, October 19, 2009 07:11 PM PST 

.........new sectors???????

CDA should first get the possession of F-11/1 Sector (now called Bheka Seyadaan Village), remaining part of D-12 (Srisaral Village), and the complete E-12 sector. It's been 20 years since CDA is unable to get this land.

I foresee the first house to be constructed on F-13 sector somewhere in the year 2110 (if the existing Zardari regime let Pakistan live that long)

.

impossible that cda develop f/13,even can not able to provide sector road to d/12.

Dear Mr CMY

You are doing a wonderful job, your opinion counts a lot for most of the people,can you kindly tell us what is the future of Central Park I have invested in 5 plots there, should i get rid of them or should i wait if wait how long plus i have heard that DHA is putting pressure on Urban Developers to finish off the work in develop blocks and develop the undevelop blocks before they take over, is that true.

Waiting in anticipation

Nasir Iqbal

CMY replied on Monday, October 19, 2009 04:41 PM PST 

Nasir Iqbal sahib your information is perfect. I have heard the same info fron lot of sources. I think its worth to hold the plots you already have there.

Who Know Truth replied on Monday, October 19, 2009 04:59 PM PST 

I have 2 plots in Central Park and 2 of my brother in law. If the information of Nasir Iqbal is true then it means we have to wait long as Urban Developers may not complete its development work till next year from now as still two block "D" and "F" are to be started for development work and these blocks due to merger of C and E into "D" and "F" are very large blocks.
I have red comments of CMY on two different posts here that he still believes that there is only 1 % chance of Central Park merger into DHA EME phase sector 2.
I would like to get
update from CMY if he has changed his belief about the merger.
However I agree with Nasir Iqbal that CMY is doing a wonderful job and inlcuding myself many of us getting benfits out of CMY precious opinions.
Any comments from CMY please

Never Put Valuables in Luggage while Traveling

Dear Readers,

Valuables like new mobiles, Jewellry has been stolen from the luggage amazingly without the lock broken while travelling from Jeddah to Lahore.

This happened with my wife as well as with my cousin.

The reason to put such information on this forum is to inform people about such incidents bcaz a lot of people are going to perform Ummrah and Hajj.

Secondly I like to know if such incidents happened with some other people.

Kind Regards,

Salamn.

Regards replied on Monday, October 19, 2009 01:22 PM PST 

Dear Salman,
Same thing happened with my mother in law when she travelled from Lahore to london last month. The locks had been broken though. All the gifts and valubles were stolen.


Kind Regards,

MM replied on Monday, October 19, 2009 02:22 PM PST 

Now thieves also have metal detectors so that they can identify the
location of metals in the lugguage and also in houses where they steal

Always remember to trust Allah Taala while placing valuables in your home. Ayat ul Kursi and other Masnoon Azkar are the safest protection. Also Halal Money and jewlarly with Zakat paid is protected by Allah Taala

Saif replied on Monday, October 19, 2009 07:28 PM PST

Considering the plot initial cost and the possibity for good sale/rental value of the constructed property, I shal be grateful for your kind input as to what place would be suitable to purchase a 4 to 5 marla plot and construct a plaza over it.
I have been considering areas such as Pakistan Town (close to PWD), G-15, DHAI phase 2, E 11( very expensive as price is above 1 crore), Bahria River commerical view( stil not ready) but am confused and would request advice of the expert brothers.

Very kind of Mr.Observer and Mr. Atiq Raja for their valuable comments.A few lines on plot cost and its brief comparison to other locations would be of great help.
As the subject matter would be of great interest to other readers, we also request more comments from the experts.

Isloo replied on Tuesday, October 20, 2009 06:22 PM PST 

Thats true...You can find videos on Facebook show you how to open and close a bag just using a Rs.2 piano ball point,,and it looks as if it was never touched.
Better idea to put some strong Packing or plastic tapes on zips or complete bag wraps before giving in for baggage,,,
idea is to minimize chance of bag being selected for theft !!!

Dear Mr.Chauudry M.Yaseen

Hope you r fine

i have a file at DHAI phase 2 ext block T

i want to know that DHA has announced that

"Allotment certificate holders of Sector A upto Sector K are intimated that they should convert their allotment certificate into allotment letters before 31st Oct, 09."

1)r they doing seperate re-ballot of sector A-K ?
& they got plots in good locations of New sector A & B?
2)or all the sectors from A - T will have equal chance to get plots in new sectors A & B?

3)i have a file in sector 'T', will i get any benefit if i convert my certificate to allotment letters now?

4)will they also include me in re-balloting of sectors A-K, if i i convert my certificate to allotment letters now?

please give your sincere advice

waiting for your reply

AftabKhan replied on Monday, October 19, 2009 03:49 PM PST 

I have been told by some property dealer that DHA Islamabad has impossed additional Rs.14 lac other than development Rs.6 lac charges on all 1 kanal plots of DHA Phase-II ext. Is this news correct?

As replied on Monday, October 19, 2009 05:05 PM PST 

No its just propganda......

Haneef replied on Monday, October 19, 2009 06:26 PM PST 

If you have file in 'T' block then you have to wait for any further announcement from DHA. As far as sector A-K file holdes are concerned, DHAI will give them allotment letters in new A/B blocks. those having earlier block
files will get plots near and those having files in later blocks will get far. Ofcourse this process will not be that transparent but somehow previous sequence will be followed. It will be very unfair if DHAI gives block K files holder a plot very cear and block A file holder very far.

Regarding extra development charges, i also heard the same. somebody told me that as there are no allotments for army officers in DHAi Phase 2 ext so DHAi can increase development charges as much as it can. development charges for army officers are same for civilian so where army officers are alloted plots , development charges are not very high. But DHA will not care for civilians.....as seen in DHA valley.

atiq raja. replied on Tuesday, October 20, 2009 12:49 AM PST 

very simple to understand
1, at beginning A to K certificates were allotted to army officers and sold in market around 40 lac rupees,so the developing cost is less and arranged in first two blocks.
2,others certificates were issued to effect es i.e one certificate against 4 kanal land,so in this case development charges will more and must be on the back of other block.

The price is Negotiable near to the asking price!
Thanks

AK replied on Monday, October 19, 2009 01:43 AM PST 

Nadeem Bhai, Unfortunately your plot in boundry plot with very odd shape. Normally this kind of plots just change hands(change owners) over the years but no one ever built any house.

There are also few odd shape plots in DHA-1 that has never been built, even after 36 years when DHA-1 was launched in 1973. These plots have been sold several time over the years, but no one ever built any thing. These Odd shape plots normally sells at significantly lower price.

People tend to pay little extra and buy plots that are better located, especially when cost of constructing a house is same.

Nadeem replied on Monday, October 19, 2009 02:39 PM PST 

Hello AK!

Thanks for your Information. I know its on boundary wall and as D-24 and D-25 is at the end of the road so they give half land to D-24 and Half to D-25. If the Entrance is 15 then land is more like its 12 marla instead of 10 marla. The other plus point in this that its 2nd to park. Green area is after 2 plots. Actually the phase of this society is so small that most of the plot are on Boundary wall. Specially D-Block. I am agree to your openian that Boundary wall plots sell on low price. This is my asking price which is negotiable. If someone will be interested I can negotiate on that. Some time the plots are odd size My plot is odd size not Odd Shape! Od shape is triangular or pentagonal kind or the plot having all sides in different size and direction. My plot size is 30x90 and its more rectangular and both opposite sides are equal to each other. SO its odd size not Odd shape. Anyhow interested parties and Serious buyers can approach me, The price is negotiable.
Regards

Usman replied on Monday, October 19, 2009 10:00 PM PST 

Nadeem Sb, I agree with AK as far as shape is concern. It is an abnormal shape retangular plot. Dimension for a anormal 10 marla plot in Lahore are 35X65. Your plot is less wide (30 feet) and a lot longer (90 feet). One can only make long-tunnel sahpe house on this plot. People rather spend few extra lacs on a plot and built a normal size house rather than saving 1-2 lacs on a odd/abnormal-shape plot and then spend 30-35 lacs to built a house.

I believe what AK is saying is that if your 12 marla plot cost 15 lacs vs. a normal 10 marla plot that also cost 15 lacs + 35 lacs cost for building a house, total cost of 15+35=50 lacs. People would rather build a normal shape house on 10 marla rather than abnormal dimension plot on a 12 marla.

I also agree with AK that odd dimensions plot sells at significantly lower price than a normal size plot for the very resons given above.

Disclosure: Please note that I don't know how much a 10 marla plot cost in this society. 15 lacs is just an arbitrary number I chose for explanations purpose only. I don't own or plan to own any plot in this society in near future.

Nadeem replied on Tuesday, October 20, 2009 01:41 PM PST 

Usman,

I am not forcing anyone to purchase the plot. I own this plot and I am putting an ad. And as I told That Don't use the word Abnormal Shape. You can say the Odd dimension. There is difference between Abnormal shape and Odd dimension. as a 12 marla its long. If this is on boundary then I need to tell that on the other side of the boundary there is no katchi abadi ts LDA-Evenue 1 on the other side. And as the society phase is small so most of the plot are on boundary wall. I am not saying I am disagree with AK. But the plot I am haing is far better then the plots in Rectangular shape and not on boundry wall. Some plots are very Abnormal shape like they are inside society non boundry and 15 front back is 30 or 50 and side shape is joining both the points so its more odd shape. Anyhow the price is negotiable.

Pakistan army

why Pakistani army didn't put on bullet proof jacket during combat

CMY replied on Sunday, October 18, 2009 01:22 PM PST 

These bullet proof jackets are too expensive to give to each soldier. They cost too much to give to all military men but they could be given to front line solders and police commandos etc. I believe they should be given to each security guard that is on entry gates of police training centers etc or check posts etc.

It seems govt owned bulletproof BMW and Mercedes for politicians or other Govt officials are more important to have than saving life of our brave military personal.

Naveed Yaseen replied on Sunday, October 18, 2009 01:46 PM PST 

In my opinion bullet resistant vests are under-utilized in Pakistan. Those are not expensive. Perhaps less than two months salary of lowest ranks even if imported, and less than one month salary if made locally.

But.... who cares.

limo replied on Sunday, October 18, 2009 06:48 PM PST 

These jackets are locally made at Air Weapons Complex,wah and are also in frequent use of Pak Army, rangers, MP, etc.If you get a chance to look at the pics or videos of soldiers / rangers operating in wanna or waziristan, can identify jacket with steel plate worn by them. Offcourse each and every soldier can not be equipped with it.The one now used by americans in Afghanistan and iraq are moisture winking vest, worn under the dress,weighing around 14 kg and cost aroud 1600$ each.Ours are cheaper and cover only front and back, lung areas can be targeted easily, but the ones used by americans cover that portion also.

Jamal replied on Sunday, October 18, 2009 07:14 PM PST 

I rememeber Pak army was never provided by bullet proof jackets and night vision googles by Americans.

Cost of BPJ in Pakistan is around 30 thousand rupees. modern version of bullet proof jacket is made of special cloth/cavelar and ceramic plates older version has steel plates.Ceramic plates give better protection against trauma effect(even if bullet does not penetrate, trauma effect can easily break bones or similar damage on vital human parts and disable/seriously injure a person).world wide BPJ are classified as per their level of protection from class 1 to 4(4 most protective).The ones civil police use are are less bulkier and give lesser protection(only made of layers of cavelar cloth but effective to guard against pistol/small arm fire and sharp blades).
Pakistan army is using the best ones now locally manufactured.

No army rules are usually not like this sue/case etc.On orders every soldier/officer is bound to perform/operate in all conditions with or without very sophisticated equipment.How ever every army tries to equip its soldiers with the best equipment,for a country like Pakistan which is poor and has a huge number of personal, it is difficult to equip whole army in one year/short time.
