The concept of orchards in Malaysia varies these days coz its now been packaged and sold in many different packages. One of them is the Nusa Dusun Orchard in Kuala Linggi, Melaka. The package came with many other facilities attached but unfortunately it didn't materialized. No Hotels, Chalets, Lakes, Resort, Bungalows, Training Ground, Herb Farm, Petting Zoo etc are not to be seen. Last January 2012 was our first meeting at Sri Malaysia Hotel PD with 30 plot owners attending. There were no meetings whatsoever between the plot owners and the company who sold us the land. Its first time for me and for many of us. So we attended the meeting and many questions were raised with some not getting a proper answer to it. Hopefully soon....
We were called for a reason of course and its simple, to hand over the orchard to the plot owners and manage the project. We were immediately told to form a corporation and start the ball rolling by allowing us to select a few members. The pro tem comittee was formed and members started to brain storm and spend sleepless nights wanting an answer.
Finally the second meeting was held at the orchard on the 2nd June 2012. The members had put in alot of efforts to organize the meeting. Lots of food and soft drinks were served. During the meeting, about 100 over plots owners were present . Surprised many including the care taker of the orchard. All as usual were left with many question unanswered. They were waiting patiently and some blew their tops. They could not tolerate the wait and promises made by the company.
As the resolutions were written in layman style out of anger and frustrations...understandable! One of our member a lawyer rendered his expertise by explaining the legal part of taking legal action on the company. Members understood and decided to go on a softer approach before deciding to take other remedies.
Many other issues were brought to our attention and will be forwarded to the company as a form of a letter. Hopefully we could settle this issue and move on to create that beautiful, conducive orhards that we dream of retiring!
Some of the pictures taken during the 2nd meeting at the orchard. Im going to load more pictures in the near future and update the full resolution adopted at the meeting. We will be sharing alot of ideas here and welcome all to give your ideas generously for the orchard.
