7 Reasons To Stay In Taman Desa

Something different this time around. For those who keep asking me "Why blog about Taman Desa?" well, I think these 7 reasons will be good enough for the time being:

1. Close to all the major highways
Kesas Hwy, Federal Hwy, PJ-Cheras Hwy, Seremban Hwy, Sg Besi Hwy and Penchala Link. This is a property agent's dream but because most of them are dumb not all have cottoned on to this fact.

2. Hot Babes
Just spend some time ambling around the 7-11s and the shoplots and you'll begin to see why. Condos like Danau Impian and Danau Idaman also have their fair share of babes of all races.

3. Green Environment
Unlike SS2 or God forbid, most of USJ, Taman Desa and its satellite suburbs (Bukit Desa, Danau Desa) are pretty leafy and green, with huge shady trees to boot. We even have our own lake. Beat that.

4. Hot Celebrity Babes
Yes, just to up the ante on No.2 we even have celebs like Elaine Daly and Marsha Londoh (I worked with both on the drama series Kerana Karina) living in the area. Other celebs include Zally Hussain and Hansen Lee (whom I've also worked with on Kerana Karina and Gua Centre). I'm sure there's a few more, but just can't think of them right now...

5. Great Variety Of Food
Taman Desa may be a little pricey but we have among the best of it all: Banana Leaf, Malay, Mamak (at least a dozen), Hong Kong Chinese, Fine Dining Chinese and Western. In fact, you name it and we've got it. No fast-food though...

6. Accessible Amenities
Everything is really close by. Hospital, Bomba, Police (okay, it's a pondok) TM Point, and at least a dozen clinics. No need to crawl out of Old Klang Road for anything, really.

7. This is DAP Territory
Taman Desa sometimes seems like an oasis of hotbed politics among the lamb-like conformists around us. There are plenty of old fellas with ol-skool minds who are never too afraid to ask "Why?" and speak out for what they feel is right.

There are many reasons why we love Taman Desa... our childhood memories, our family memories, our santuary, our home..our future.

However, Taman Bukit Desa & Taman Desa has been invaded by HIGH VOLTAGE TRANSMISSION TOWER along Jalan Desa Utama & Jalan Taman Bukit Desa.

Not only there are health hazard - long term exposure will cause children to develop leukemia, cause difficulty in conceiving, effects pregnant ladies, causes migraines & much more health conditions.

Why? Because the HIGH VOLTAGE TOWERS radiates Electromagnetic fields which interrupts our body charges, there are "+" & "-" ions which needs to be in a balance state to achieve optimum health condition. Also it will affect those with hear pace maker.

Since January 2009, Taman Desa High Tension Cable ACTION Group (TDHTCActionGrp)with support from TDRA have been formed to get TNB to put the cables underground.

hey michael!
it's alex wan. great post...i've moved here recently and it's not bad at all. i really ought to notice a bit more on no.2 :D no.5 is definitely so true, though having moved here from hartamas, it is so not pricey comparatively. another point i'd add to your list would be WIDE ROADS, something so hard to find in residential areas these days.
