Taman Pelangi @ Simpang Lima
28 single-storey semi-detached houses on a single road at Simpang Lima, between Parit Buntar and Kuala Kurau, with an SPA price band of RM403,300 – RM484,300 on the permit. The register records them 90% built and Lancar (on schedule) as read on 8 October 2026. The land is Malay reservation land, so most buyers cannot own it — read that first.

4 things that actually separate Taman Pelangi from other Kerian schemes
Not a feature list. Who this suits, and who it does not.
Malay reservation land — check you qualify
The advertisement the developer filed with the housing ministry describes the land as Tanah Simpanan Melayu — Malay reservation land. Under Perak’s Malay Reservations Enactment, such land can generally be owned only by a Malay as the Enactment defines it; other Malaysians, including many non-Malay Bumiputera, and all foreigners are generally excluded. Confirm your eligibility with a conveyancing lawyer before you book anything.
A semi-detached house on one floor
All 28 units are single-storey semi-Ds with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, about 1,076 sq ft built-up on lots of about 3,380 sq ft upward (±34′ wide, about 100′ deep). No stairs, and more land around the house than a terrace.
Nearly built
The register records the scheme 90% built and Lancar on 8 October 2026, with vacant possession due 7 February 2027 under the SPA; the filed advertisement expects completion in December 2026.
Rural Kerian, between two towns
It sits off Jalan Baharu at Simpang Lima, between Parit Buntar and Kuala Kurau, reached through an existing taman. The developer’s map shows Hospital Parit Buntar Baru, two primary schools and the Simpang Lima police station nearby. It suits someone who works locally, not a daily commuter to Penang.
28 semi-Ds in one row, 90% built
The site plan shows plots 1–28 in a single row along one road, with a small open space and a pond area at the north-west end.
Estate and specification
No clubhouse and no guardhouse; each house has its own front gate. What the site plan and the specification on the filed advertisement show:
Estate
- Plots 1–28 in one row
- Small open space at the north-west end
- Pond area beside the open space
- Access through an existing taman
Structure & finishes
- Reinforced concrete frame, cement brick walls
- Concrete roof tiles
- Plaster and skim-coat ceilings
- Ceramic tiles to 5′ in bathrooms and kitchen; ceramic floor tiles; cement-render car porch
- Aluminium-framed glass windows; timber doors, PVC bathroom doors
Fittings
- 2 WCs, 2 wash basins, 2 showers, 1 kitchen sink
- 12 lighting points and 1 wall-light point
- 5 fan points, 14 x 13A sockets
- 1 TV point, 1 telephone point
What is on the record, and when
The one published layout
Every plot has the same house; plot sizes differ slightly along the row.
Single-storey semi-detached — about 1,076 sq ft, 3 bedrooms
A ±24′ x 45′ house set back behind a deep car porch (the front setback is about 39′6″ to 44′), with about 15′ of garden behind and a side garden. Living room at the front, then dining and kitchen down the middle; the master bedroom with its own bathroom, bedroom 2 and bedroom 3 down the side, with the second bathroom at the back. The register enters 100 sq m (about 1,076 sq ft); the filed advertisement prints 1,077.79 sq ft built-up on 3,379.87 sq ft of land.
💬 Ask about the semi-DPlan from the developer’s artwork. The agency’s plot table puts land areas at about 3,380 to 3,541 sq ft; ask me for the figure for your plot.
Taman Pelangi in pictures
All images are the developer’s own artwork. Artist’s impressions are not a representation of the finished building.
💬 Ask for site progress photosWhere Taman Pelangi sits, and what is near it
Simpang Lima is a rural junction in Kerian district, south-west of Parit Buntar on the way to Kuala Kurau. The register places the scheme at about 5.0567°N, 100.4668°E, off Jalan Baharu near Batu 6.
The map loads only when you click it, so this page does not send anything to Google before you ask it to.

28 semi-Ds at Simpang Lima, 90% built — permitted from RM403,300
On the government housing register this scheme is entered as Taman Pelangi, project code 14648-8, in Kerian district; the developer markets it as Taman Pelangi @ Simpang Lima. The licence is held by KY Maju Development Sdn Bhd (14648). I read the entry on teduh.kpkt.gov.my on 8 October 2026.
| Project code | Registered name | Licensed developer | Advertising permit | Permit expires | Units | Bed / bath | Price band on the permit | Built | Status |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 14648-8 | Taman Pelangi | KY Maju Development Sdn Bhd (14648) | 14648-8/02-2027/0103(N)-(L) | 3 Feb 2027 | 28 | 3 / 2 | RM403,300 – RM484,300 | 90% | Lancar |
Building type: 28 single-storey semi-detached houses (Rumah Berkembar 1 tingkat), 100 sq m (about 1,076 sq ft) each. Approving authority: Majlis Daerah Kerian; building plan reference printed on the filed advertisement M.D.KERIAN.B/02/10/22(09). Land status printed on the filed advertisement: Tanah Simpanan Melayu (Malay reservation land); the developer’s sales material describes the tenure as freehold. Land encumbrance: none (Tiada). Restriction in interest: none printed (Tiada). Expected completion printed on the filed advertisement: December 2026. Developer’s licence: 14648/04-2028/0610(A), valid 13 April 2023 to 12 April 2028. Permit valid from 4 February 2025. SPA form: Schedule G (Jadual G, landed property with individual title). Date of first SPA: 7 February 2025; vacant possession due under the SPA: 7 February 2027. No earlier permit is listed. The developer’s own brochures print no permit particulars; everything here is from the register and the filed advertisement.
The price band on the permit is the developer’s approved SPA (sale and purchase agreement) price range on the government register — the range within which units may be sold, not a current price list for any particular unit. Check the entry yourself: teduh.kpkt.gov.my/semakan-status-kemajuan?kodProjek=14648-8 · How to run this check yourself, and what the seven status words mean →
What the permitted price band tells you
The permitted band is RM403,300 to RM484,300 for 28 single-storey semi-Ds of about 1,076 sq ft. The same house is in every plot, so the spread mostly reflects land size and corner positions. The filed advertisement prints the same range. The current price list is a separate document: ask for it by name, with the plot number.
About 90% built, Lancar
The register records the scheme 90% built with the status Lancar — on schedule, no adverse flag — as I read it on 8 October 2026. First SPA 7 February 2025; vacant possession due 7 February 2027 under the SPA; the filed advertisement expects completion in December 2026. The percentage is the developer’s own progress return to the ministry (the statutory 7(f) report). Note today’s reading and re-check before each progress payment your bank releases. Status vocabulary is fixed: Belum Mula, Lancar, Lewat, Sakit, Siap Dengan CCC / CFO, Permit Telah Dibatalkan. This entry sits in Lancar — no adverse flag.
Foreign buyers: what Perak allows
No. The filed advertisement describes the land as Malay reservation land, which foreigners cannot own; and the developer’s material describes it as freehold, which Perak has closed to foreign buyers since September 2023, whatever the price. Simpang Lima falls under Zone 3 (Kerian district) — confirm the zone with a lawyer.
Perak’s rules for foreign buyers, as summarised in the Malaysian Bar’s Circular 444/2024 (state table as at October 2024): since September 2023 non-citizens and foreign companies may not acquire freehold property in Perak. On leasehold land a home must be bought direct from the developer — residential sub-sales to foreigners are not permitted. Minimum prices: Zone 1 (Ipoh) RM700,000 landed / RM500,000 strata; Zone 2 (Manjung, Taiping, Teluk Intan, Tanjong Malim, Kampar, Batu Gajah, Kuala Kangsar) RM500,000 landed / RM350,000 strata; Zone 3 (Kerian, Perak Tengah, Tapah, Pengkalan Hulu, Gerik, Lenggong, Selama) RM300,000 landed / RM350,000 strata. Commercial property needs at least RM1,000,000 (Zone 1–2) or RM800,000 (Zone 3). State Authority consent is always required, and Bumiputera-quota lots are not open to foreign buyers. These rules change: confirm the current position in writing with a Perak conveyancing lawyer before you pay anything.
Who else cannot buy here
The advertisement the developer filed with the housing ministry describes the land as Tanah Simpanan Melayu — Malay reservation land. Under Perak’s Malay Reservations Enactment, such land can generally be owned only by a Malay as the Enactment defines it; other Malaysians, including many non-Malay Bumiputera, and all foreigners are generally excluded. The agency notes also mark some plots as Bumiputera lots. Ask the developer’s lawyer, in writing, who may buy and register the title before you pay anything.
What is not published, and therefore not on this page
- A copy of the title showing the Malay-reservation endorsement and the tenure
- The postal address and postcode
- Land area plot by plot (the agency plot table gives estimates only)
- Launch date and the developer’s other completed projects
About KY Maju Development Sdn Bhd and Kimyong Group
Start with the fact you can check yourself. The developer is KY Maju Development Sdn Bhd, company no. 922782-A, of No. 1, Lorong Ciku 3, Taman Ciku, 14000 Bukit Mertajam, Penang, as printed on its advertisement filed with the housing ministry. On the government register it is licensed developer no. 14648, licence 14648/04-2028/0610(A), valid 13 April 2023 to 12 April 2028.
It markets under the Kimyong Group brand (“Hello Happiness”, kimyonggroup.com). The same company is building Taman Serai Emas in Bagan Serai (register entry 14648-9). Its own brochures for Taman Pelangi print no permit particulars, so the register and the filed advertisement are where to check them. I could not reach the group’s website or find a published track record beyond these two schemes.
There is no sales gallery; the developer works from its Bukit Mertajam office and shows a scale model.
Project website: kimyonggroup.com (could not be opened on 8 October 2026). Check the developer on the KPKT TEDUH portal (teduh.kpkt.gov.my).
Frequently asked questions
What is the price of Taman Pelangi?
The SPA price band on the advertising permit is RM403,300 to RM484,300 for the 28 single-storey semi-Ds. That is the developer’s approved selling-price range on the government housing register as I read it on 8 October 2026 — not a current price list for any particular unit. For the current unit-by-unit price list, WhatsApp me.
Who can buy at Taman Pelangi?
Generally only Malays. The advertisement filed with the housing ministry describes the land as Malay reservation land, which under Perak’s Malay Reservations Enactment can generally be owned only by a Malay as the Enactment defines it. Confirm your eligibility with a lawyer before booking.
Is it completed?
Not yet, but nearly: the register records it 90% built and Lancar (on schedule) on 8 October 2026, with vacant possession due 7 February 2027 under the SPA. The filed advertisement expects completion in December 2026.
Where is Taman Pelangi?
At Simpang Lima, off Jalan Baharu near Batu 6, between Parit Buntar and Kuala Kurau in Kerian district, Perak. It is about 9.5 km by road from Parit Buntar town centre and about 6.2 km from Kuala Kurau.
Is it freehold?
The developer’s sales material says freehold. The advertisement filed with the ministry gives only the Malay-reservation status in its tenure line, so ask to see the title.
How big are the houses?
About 1,076 sq ft built-up (100 sq m on the register; 1,077.79 sq ft on the filed advertisement), 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, on lots of about 3,380 sq ft upward (±34′ x 99′6″ to ±104′1″).
Can foreigners or Singaporeans buy?
No. The land is Malay reservation land and is described as freehold; foreigners cannot own Malay reservation land, and Perak has barred them from freehold property since September 2023. Confirm the current rules with a lawyer before you pay anything.
Is it gated and guarded? Is there a maintenance fee?
No guardhouse is shown and no maintenance charge is published; each house has its own gate. You pay assessment to Majlis Daerah Kerian and quit rent to the land office.
How much can I borrow?
For your first and second residential property, Malaysian banks generally lend up to 90% of the price, subject to income and credit record; some banks are cautious on Malay reservation land, so ask early.
How do I view it?
WhatsApp me on +60 10-906 6685. There is no sales gallery; I will send the current price list and arrange a site visit.
5 things worth asking for before you book
This scheme is on Malay reservation land, so the paperwork matters more than usual. I will ask for all of these on your behalf:
- A copy of the title, showing the Malay-reservation endorsement and the tenure
- The lawyer’s written confirmation that you are eligible to buy and register it
- The latest architect’s progress certificate and the expected CCC date
- Your plot’s exact land area
- The Housing Development Account bank and number, to pay into
No obligation, and no mailing list.

The unit mix, the permitted price and how far up it is
None of this table is the developer’s account of itself. It is what the Ministry of Housing and Local Government records from the 7(f) returns: unit type, bedrooms and bathrooms, built-up area, unit count, the price range on the permit, and the certified percentage complete. A brochure price can be revised; the price on the permit was filed. A brochure need not mention progress; the percentage is certified. The status vocabulary is theirs too: Lancar (on schedule), Lewat (behind), Sakit (sick), Terbengkalai (abandoned).

Swipe the table sideways for the rest of the columns.
This is the document the developer had to file, and the housing department had to approve, before it was allowed to advertise at all — served from the ministry’s own host. It normally carries the location plan, the developer licence and building-plan approval references, the expected completion date, the encumbrance position, and the unit count and price floor and ceiling for each type. The brochure a salesperson hands you can be reissued. This one cannot.

What to do with the number. Read it against the delivery date in your own agreement, not against what a salesperson says. A project with a year left on its statutory clock and a third of the building up is telling you something the brochure will not.
