Petaling Jaya apartment complex guide: strata and consumer resources

If you own or manage a unit in a Petaling Jaya apartment or condo, disputes over maintenance fees, by-laws or service providers usually go through a specific government body rather than the courts. Below is a short list of the real tribunals, ministries and councils that actually handle these matters, drawn from official sources, so you know where to turn before filing a complaint.

Government & regulatory

It was established under Section 107 of the Strata Management Act 2013 and sits under the Ministry of Local Government Development (KPKT), though it does not handle disputes over ownership.
