Dirty Building

By nojnoj

I need to find a way to ask Baladyah people to come and check the building were im staying.


Mansoura, Al-Abanouse St.


The lanlord doesnt come ofcourse, but his deputy comes and he just ignores the thing, and none of the neighbors are willing to help in cleaning.


Its full of dirt. Whoever moves out, just keep their old things there without throwing in the trash..


it looks like a trash area, but even worse.


Please help :(

It looks like a garbage station where the garbages are thrown and collected by baladiya.

Thanks ingeniero, I changed my post accordingly, as long as one other person knows who I am referring to makes it all better...

What or who is baladiya?I live in Al Maha towers in the diplomatic district and our bldg. might be somewhat better but still dirty.  The owner lives out of the country and the bldg. manager, a guy names Parvez (?), is a crook who NEVER answers emails or cares about the tenants' comments or complaints.  The bldgs. smell like garbage, the elevators are DIRTY, the windows are so filthy I can't really see the nice view my employer pays for, the curtains are so cheap they literally disintegrate into pieces and fall to the ground and what's worse, we all seem to share the same ventilation system which blows out cigarette smoke into my apt. (my son has asthma) and there is nobody to ask for help. Their kiddie pool has green algae and is missing filter covers in and outside the pool. They don't fix your appliances, you have to replace them if they break or are damaged (I had just moved into my apt. and had to pay to fix my laundry machine which according to them had never been used before). I'd  love to continue because there is so much to complain about and venting surely helps my frustration but I'll spare you all and stop.  So my question is precisely that, who in authority can I complain about if the bldg owner doesn't care and the manager cares less?BTW, this bldg (Al Maha Towers )has workers who are rude and lazy and never seem to wash their shirt but when I walk to Beverly Hills across the street to their dry cleaners and grocery store I can't help but feel impressed at how clean and friendly their staff are.  I write this in case someone looking into Al Maha towers has a choice in residence location.

I can understand your feeling as I had gone through this before. We all come here as expats to earn a better living, and as we live, we live like this in areas like these, it's horribile. Actually, this affects our "mind" much more than our "physical". PPL need to have more civic sense and should take charge on their own duties and responsibilities. We do talk much on our "rights" and "discriminiations", but very few do come forward to highlight issues like this. I really appreciate you for brining this matter to light. --- I think as "s_isale" noted, baladiya can help you I hope......
