Under the Street,Drainage and Building Act 1974, which clearly stated that no person can erect any kind of structure in any public place or along the side of any street without the authorities' approval.
The municipal council can tear down the barrier and the police can take action against those who erected it.
NST-27/1/2008 :-The Inspector General of police Tan Sri Musa Hassan said" The erection of guard houses and gantry barriers to stop outsiders from accessing public roads in the exclusive suburb(i.e. Sierramas ) was an offence under the law.
If your Taman is a complete gated and guarded housing estate; and all the public utilities/facilities ( roads, drainage, sewerage lines, telecommunication services, water pipe line, rubbish collections, etc ) inside the Taman are under the sole care of residents of the Taman and all the above are maintain by the residents concern...Then hah ; you may stop outsider from entering your own Taman.Yes you have your right.
But when your roads, etc, inside the Taman are under the care of local authority then you have no right not to allow the public to have an access in you Taman! Simple reason:- I PAID ROAD TAX TOO!
