PETALING JAYA: Fences and gates keep houseowners safe but the barriers are also known to make strangers out of neighbours.
Taman Gasing Indah here was one such “I-don't-know-you” neighbourhood for many years until some residents decided to fire up the community spirit.
“Initially it was difficult to get the residents to be involved,” said Gasing Indah Rukun Tetangga (RT) voluntary patrol unit (SRS) head Eric Chew.
He recalled the neighbourhood being a crime prone area with car break-ins and snatch theft cases happening almost everyday.
