As a result, it produced rapid development in high-rise residential scheme. However, many residents are concern about privacy of the premise when the premise is overcrowded with STRA guests. The residents are concern that their privilege as residents will be affected with the presence of many STRA guests using the facilities in the apartments, which sometimes lead to nuisance in the premise. i.e. issues of parking, noise pollution and traffic congestion.
