1 Introduction to Property Management
The “management” in Property Management can be defined as a form of work that
involves coordinating an organization’s human, financial, physical and information
resources toward accomplishing organizational objectives. The attainments of those
organizational goals should be in an effective and efficient manner through planning,
organizing, leading and controlling organizational resources.
The “property” in Property Management refers to Real Property which is physical
land, and anything growing on it, attached to it, or erected on it, including a house or
any other structure.
Property Management hence can be defined as the total care of the building during
the operation stage.
1.1 Definition of property management
The definition of property management varies between different experts or
authors but essentially they all contain the same themes which are:
- Establishing goals and objectives
- Implementing policies
- Monitoring and reviewing strategies for the benefit of the owner or
tenants, and
- Enhancing the value of the property
With that, we found a definition which perfectly suits all these themes.
Property management involves organising an efficient system as well as
directing, coordinating and controlling all the skills available towards
maximising income from a property and at the same time ensuring maximum
protection of its fabric from deterioration and wastage through proper upkeep
and maintenance. (Chin, 1986)
1.2 Definition of Special properties
Special purpose property is a property that is usually used for one type of use
or limited use. This type of property usually has unique design and layout,
uses special construction materials, some does not earn income at all, or other
features that limit the property's utility for purposes other than the one for
which it was built. It can be a building with limited uses and marketability,
such as a church, theatre, mosque, school, or public utility. As the property is
of a specialized nature, the market for the property may also be quite limited.
This is also known as limited-market property or special-design property.
1.3 Objectives of special properties management
The objective of special properties management is to manage the property
effectively and efficiently. Management of special properties is usually
provided internally by members of the particular business of an organization.
These individuals must be skilled in the techniques of professional property
management and knowledgeable in their specific fields or endeavour.
1.4 Objectives of managing mosque
The objective of managing a mosque is mainly to manage an area of worship
for the pilgrims effectively and efficiently. Mosque is a place where Muslims
pilgrims carry out Islamic activities in pursuance of Islam as a complete way
of life. The mosque also cater to other services such as, wedding services;
provide funeral, burial, and cemetery facilities to Muslims; carry out
religious and charitable acts to help those in need; gives out religious
education to young people and so on. Thus, it is very important to manage
the mosque in a way so that these activities can be done smoothly.
1.5 Characteristics of special properties
Hotels, motels, church, mosque, hospital, police station, school, museum, zoo
and park are considered special properties. Though these places are different
in nature, they share a common denominator which is the activity in these
buildings is a special business or organisation that affects the design and
operation of the building themselves. Due to the reason that the properties are
of specialized nature, the market for these properties may also be quite
limited. Thus, these properties also share common characteristics in which
their market availability and demands are low.
2 STRATEGY OF PROPERTY MANAGEMENT
Every property requires a property manager who runs the day to day operations
in order for the building or property to run smoothly and to maintain the conditions of
the building or property. Therefore, all property management companies have to come
up with a property management strategy with proper reference to the function and use of
the property.
The main purpose of developing a strategy to manage a property is to ensure the
management of property run smoothly and is well planned.
2.1 STAGES OF PROPERTY MANAGEMENT STRATEGY
The strategy of property management include three steps which are fundamental
in order to manage the building efficiently and effectively. The steps involved are:
1. Strategic analysis
2. Developing solutions
3. Strategy implementation
1. Strategic Analysis
Strategic analysis is the first step of the management strategy stage which
includes compiling and obtaining all the data and facts regarding the property.
Besides, strategic analysis also includes developing organization objective, policy
and requirements, identifying sources of funds to finance the strategy, identifying the
physical aspect and condition of the property, analyzing the cost and establishing a
budget for short term and long term to achieve value for money from the asset.
The strategic analysis step can be summarized in the following mind map:
A. Service audit and review
Service audit and review involves the technique of benchmarking as a method or
tool for establishing current performance and achievement. Furthermore, analysis
of space and maintenance plan is required in this stage.
B. Assessment of expectations and objectives
Organisations should be able to define their expectations and objectives for their
property. This can be done by analyzing the strength, weaknesses, satisfaction
level and also includes an analysis of opportunities and threats. These objectives
should be embodied in a formal statement, or linked to it, and should relate to the
business needs. The examples of objectives an organization can use are:
Providing services required by residents/visitors/tenants.
Maximising value for money
Optimising the service potential of the asset.
Contributing to economic growth
Strategic Analysis
Services audit and
review
Assessment of
expectations and
objectives
Portfolio audit
Resource audit
Market audit
C. Portfolio audit
Implicit in an audit of real estate and related assets will be consideration of the
necessity for and provision of support services, maintenance plan and an
assessment of risks. Organisations have to identify their space utilization and
procedures for charging for the use of pace. This auditing will raise awareness of
how space is being used and how economical that use is. An evaluation of the
full cost of providing the space, that is, the cost of providing support services,
must form part of the exercise which will help establish which spaces are
providing value for money and which are not.
D. Resource audit
Resource audit of real estate include a review of personnel employed in the
provision of services and facilities management that cover both in-house and
contracted organisations. Organisations must analyse the processes that are
contained within the facilities to determine patterns of use and areas of intensive
use. The resource audit concentrates on people, providers and systems. Resource
audit on people is to determine the skills profiles and to identify gaps. Resource
audit on providers is to determine capability, scope and terms of engagement.
Resource audit on systems is to establish the status of all procedures and
technology by process analysis and systems audit.
E. Market audit
Organisations undertake a market audit periodically to establish the state of the
real estate market and the position on service providers.
2. Developing solutions
The information obtained in stage one which includes the organization’s
objective will be assessed and analyzed for the second time and the facilities
management strategy will be formed. This means an organization have to choose
the real and most appropriate strategy. The recommended approach is:
Generation of options
Assembly of criteria for judging options
Evaluation of options
Selection of preferred option of organisation’s actual facilities
management strategy
1. Generation of options
There are many ways in which organisations can establish options, for example,
consultation with stakeholders and invitations to external experts. The strategic
analysis stage should have highlighted precisely how well the organisation’s
space and other attributes of its facilities match up to its needs. This means that
options should be considered for bridging identified gaps as well as for bringing
innovative solutions to present and future needs.
3. Strategy Implementation
In this stage, it consists of development strategic process through creation
of implementation plan that contains planning schedule, timetables and proper
risk management. (Atkin, B., 2000)
An organization or facility management have to identify risks and is
responsible to assign these risks in which is included in facility or property
management. The plan should encompass people and systems, communication,
resource planning, and procurement. (Noor, A.R., 2004)
2.1.1 STRATEGIES OF MANAGING A MOSQUE
1. Set up objectives
The first step of managing a mosque is to set up short term, middle term and
long term objectives. The management of the mosque must consider the
goals and objectives of the organization in accordance to the asset of the
mosque in order to achieve measurable result within a period of time.
2. Management Framework of mosque
The management framework must cover the following characteristics which
are listed below.
Knowledge of levels of service required by visitors.
Knowledge of management performance and reliability
Knowledge of mosque’s utilization and capacity
Knowledge of mosque’s value
Ability to serve pilgrims and worshipers’ needs
Ability to optimize maintenance and operation activities
Ability to analyse alternative treatment option
Ability to align mosque with service and community expectations
3. Property Assessment tools
Property assessment tools outlined in mosque strategic planning provides the
organization with a structured process to guide decision making for property
management. The property assessment tools and particularly the Decision
Logic Map, enable the organization to demonstrate its commitment to
transparency and accountability by making decisions freely available, easily
understood, measurable and accessible. The Assessment tools consists of two
elements which are Decision Logic Map which is a guided set of questions in
a flow chart and a key performance critea which is a set of measures for
property performance.
The property performance indicators are a way of measuring the
property’s management performance which can be measured using these
indicators:
I. Financial
Performance can be measured through rental, outgoings, capital works
expenditure, property maintenance expenditure and employment.
II. Utilisation
Utilisation in this case means the utilization of space of the property.
III. Condition
Condition of a property can be measured through condition rating,
estimated life, remaining useful life and consumption of the building.
IV. Community
A property management performance can be measured through the
community. The value of community benefits is the measurement of a
management’s performance. Community benefits include considerations
of value to the community and covers inclusion, access and diversity.
V. Environment
Environment measures such as water consumptions, electrical energy
consumption, gas energy consumption and value of natural environmental
benefits.
4. Preparing budget for mosque
Budget and financial associated with mosque include:
Maintenance costs
-Preventative
-Programmed
-Reactive
Operating costs

2.4 SYSTEM USED TO MANAGE A MOSQUE
Mosques are administrated under the authority of State Islamic Council,
respectively (Ahmad et al., 2010). As an illustration, a mosque that is located in
Putrajaya will be under the authority of Department of Islamic Development Malaysia.
According to Jaafar et al., there are two teams involved in mosque management which
includes mosque’ organization committee and mosque’ officers. Mosque organization’s
committee plan and execute all activities in a mosque meanwhile mosque officers that
stands of inspectorate, Imam, preacher, muezzin and siak whose have been appointed
from council or Department of Islamic Affairs and been given allowances. These
officers only execute their own tasks which have been appointed by the Department of
Islamic Development Malaysia.
In Malaysia, there are two groups of people entrusted with the management of
state mosques. The first group consists of salaried individuals who are employed by the
government. These are the officers of the mosque. Generally, these officers are
appointed by the Department of Islamic Development Malaysia. The officers of state
mosques normally comprise the Imam Besar (Chief Cleric), the Imam (Cleric), the
Khatib (Friday sermon reader), the Bilal (caller to prayer) and the Siak (mosque keeper).
These officers, in general, perform only religious duties except for the Siak who looks
after the cleanliness of the mosque. Among others, the duties of these officers include
ensuring that programs and activities of the mosque are properly organized. The second
group is the mosque committee. Members of state mosque committees comprise of
religious officials as well as representatives from various government agencies.
In general, state mosques in Malaysia have no autonomy with regards to
managing their financial affairs. There are two sources of funds that state mosques
receive: allocation from the state government and public donations. The funds received
from the state government are mainly used for maintaining the mosques and to conduct
religious activities. The public donations are used to finance some religious and social
activities that are not funded by the government. Because the funds are derived from two
different sources, its administrative procedures pertaining to the funds also differ. The
state Islamic Religious Department is responsible for administering funds allocated by
the state government while the state mosque committee is responsible for managing
public donations. However, as Edwards (1990) suggested, given the limited funds that
religious organizations have it is very difficult to have appropriate segregation of duties
and a proper system of internal controls in such organizations. This may, in turn, lead to
misappropriation of funds.
In terms of facilities management, the Department of Islamic Development
Malaysia hires a contractor to manage the facilities and services such as housekeeping,
cleaning, lift, escalators, pest control, electrical, mechanical works and landscaping. The
contractor is able to hire a sub-contractor to manage the services.
3 PROPERTY MANAGEMENT
Property management is the operation, control and oversight of real estate as used in
its most broad terms. Management indicates a need to be cared for, monitored and
accountability given for its useful life and condition. This is more to the role of
management in any business.
Property management is also the management of personal property, equipment,
tooling and physical capital assets that are acquired and used to build, repair and
maintain end item deliverables. Property management includes the procedures,
frameworks and labor required to deal with the life cycle of all gained property as
characterized above including securing, control, responsibility, maintenance, support,
use and manner.

3.2 CRITERIA OF A GOOD PROPERTY MANAGER
A property manager needs to have a certain set of specific traits and other, harder-
to-define skills in order to be successful.
A property manager needs to be able to listen and communicate, as well as be
proactive and involved, current and knowledgeable. He or she should also be sensible
and resourceful, personable and articulate. At the end of the day however, most people
working in the management industry agree that the most fundamentally important trait
for a good property manager to possess is the ability to communicate and relate to
people.
1. Communication is Essential
Good communication is the grease in a building's wheels. It is the property
manager's duty to make sure everything runs smoothly, and that requires everyone
involved in the building to understand one another. Conflict is generally a result of
misunderstanding, often precipitated by a lack of or breakdown in communication. A
property manager needs to be able to see other peoples' perspectives, to hear what
they are saying, and to solve problems. The property manager needs to understand
and balance the views of multiple interested parties. According to Steven Gold of
New York City-based management company Hudson View Associates Inc., "It's
very important that a property manager is a good listener, who is detail-oriented and
follows up. Furthermore, a property manager must be able to listen, then understand
and interpret what he or she is being told by the unit owners [or shareholders], the
super, the board of directors, and so forth."
The property manager is the intermediary for everybody associated with the
building, so as Gold mentions, they need to be a good interpreter and show
diplomacy: listening, understanding, and translating messages between various
parties.
2. Knowledge
According to Cohen, the financial report should consist of a general ledger that
shows the projected versus the actual budget, as well as accounts payable status
reports on shareholders or unit owners. It should also include a check register
showing all money disbursed for the month, as well as copies of bills, bank
statements, checks, and a bank reconciliation. In short, the property manager should
provide the board with ALL financial information they require.
The second report should consist of all correspondence between management,
tenants/owners, the board, etc., and any other paperwork regarding the building's
operations. By keeping the board of directors updated monthly, the manager can see
to it that the board is informed and prepared, and, thus less likely to be caught
unawares by any unpleasant surprises.
In New York City, where laws are constantly changing and new laws are
constantly being created, a property manager needs to stay current and up-to-date
with emerging regulations. They need to be reading the newspapers, keeping an eye
out for new laws that may affect their building. Also, each manager needs to manage
approaching deadlines, (for inspections, just to name one example) and bring
pertinent information to the board's attention.
3. People First
The job of a property manager is a balancing act that requires the agent to
anticipate and handle the logistical issues of the building without losing sight of the
responsibilities to all the people of the building. With PDAs, cell phones, and e-mail,
a property manager is accessible nearly all of the time. According to Cohen, one of
the biggest complaints about property managers today is that they do not return
phone calls. They are in charge of supplies, finances, employees, professionals,
boilers, and a whole slew of responsibilities that require incredible organizational
and multi-tasking abilities, but ultimately, they must be adept at answering questions
and dealing with people.
According to Robin Habacht of Monticello Management in Leonia, New Jersey,
"Many homeowners [feel] that although their association is cared for, they as
individuals [have] no representation, no one to advocate for them within the
management company." As difficult as representing the board and the association
may be, a good property manager cannot lose sight of anyone.
4. Professional Decorum and Staffing
In addition to looking towards the future, a property manager must also be
physically present, visiting each building in their portfolio at least once or twice a
week—though not on a set visitation schedule. Managing the building's employees
means keeping them on their toes, and a flexible visitation schedule helps prevent a
building from falling into disarray during the periods when the staff knows that there
will be no pop-ins from a manager.
According to Gold, the manager must provide support to building supers and
staff. If a staffing relationship doesn't work however, says Gold, "A super fires
himself." It is the manager's job to assist the super, explain to them what needs to be
done, and provide enough time to handle things in an appropriate manner. In the end,
a property manager has to do what is best for the building and community as a
whole.
When dealing with professionals associated with running a building, such as
attorneys, accountants, or other service providers, a good manager must also act
professionally. Dealing with lawyers and accountants requires the same basic
interpersonal and communication skills needed to work with anyone, with an
understanding of exactly what duties a professional must perform.
In terms of accountants, by keeping the building finances in order and supplying
the board of directors with the financial reports on a monthly rather than yearly
basis, an organized property manager makes the accountant's task easier. Perhaps the
accountant comes in once a year, in April for a tax season audit. If the manager has
kept up with paperwork and has delivered it to the board, the necessary materials
will already be thorough and organized properly.
The responsibilities of the attorneys, on the other hand, include collecting arrears
and implementing the board's policies. By attending every board meeting, the
managing agent is better able to assist attorneys in doing their job.
Whether it be inspecting a boiler, informing the board of a new law, or even
making sure the board of directors have all necessary materials monthly, (especially
in the event of a new manager or management company taking over) a good property
manager's job is never done. If you have someone who can check the prices of oil or
gas against the budget, console a tenant with a sick cat, and mediate a disagreement
between two staff members, odds are you've got a keeper.
A good property manager has to be able to communicate and interact with a
variety of different people and personalities, while keeping all logistics in order. It is
a difficult job keeping a building's engine running 24 hours a day, seven days a
week.
4 Selection of Tenants
Selecting the perfect tenants for your property could prove to be quite tiring, but
having the wrong tenant for your property will be even more tiresome. Selecting the
wrong tenants may give you unnecessary problems like late payment of rent,
destruction of your properties, complaints from neighbours and so on. So, selecting
the right tenant is very important.
To avoid getting the wrong tenants, it is advisable to hire a professional estate agent.
Tell the estate agent what criteria you are looking for in a tenant and also other
important details like rent, rental period, responsibility of tenants and owner and so
on.
4.1 Selection of Tenants for mosque
The selection of tenants for the mosque is quite strict. To qualify as a tenant, they have
to fulfil a few criteria:
1. Must be a Bumiputera

of procedures. The form is attached in the appendix.
5 Building Services and Maintenance for Mosque
Giving a maintenance service at Mosque is important and require a supervision of
maintenance everyday as to ensure people use with a good, clean and comfortable
condition (Noorsaidi Mahat, 2015). One of the importance to maintains mosque are
a holy place of worship and for various religious activity, such as lecture, praying,
motivation and tutorial class related to Islamic religion. Thus the image of Mosque
should be aware by the maintenance department or property manager. The main
objective of a maintenance organization in a building to perverse the physical
condition of a building and also to reduce the cost of maintaining the property. This
purpose to ensure the mosque continue serving and to remain the value of property.
Service is an intangible commodity. That is, service are an example intangible
economic good. A service is an activity or benefit that one party can offer that
essentially intangible and does not result in ownership of anything. It production
may or not be tied to a physical product (Kotlar and Armstrong, 1991). Perhaps it is
more important to be aware of what your customers consider their definition of
service to be and how your business to fulfil that perception (Clarke, 2000)
This volume takes the user through the requirement of both service and
maintenance of mosque and assigns specific requirement for each. This include:
I) The structure for an Operations Manual :
Opening & closing requirements
Lighting and internal climate management
Sound management

5.1 Scope of Service for a Mosque
Mosque needs to procure services for continue survive and had some fund to
rolling the maintenance of mosque, a scope of services agreement helps define what
services that provided by mosque. Also called a scope of work, this is the document
of details when the services are required. Scope of services agreement is the
foundation of a services contract. Writing scope of services agreement gives clear
directions to the service provider before the work begins.
Every scope of services agreement should have a fixed duration. Include the
starting date and ending date for the services. These are often dates on which the
services provider completes specific tasks or delivers work products (Luther, 2015).
A scope of services may:
List the fullest range of services that may be provided, and then items are
struck through if they are not being provided within the fee.
Offer a tick box system to indicate whether services are being provided or
not.
Include a list specifically setting out services that will not be provided.
Provide options, such as; to ‘carry out’ services or to ‘organise’ them; to
provide cost consultancy services or not and so on.
Indicate the basis on which the services will be charged, for example, ‘T’
indicating time-based, or ‘LS’ indicating a lump sum fee.
5.2 Expenses Paid for Mosque
Expenses must reduce in value of an asset or property to generate revenue.
If the underlying asset is to be used over a long period of time, the expense takes
the form of depreciation. If the expense is for an immediately consumed item,
such as a salary, then it is usually charged to expense as incurred. If the
expenditure is for a minor amount that may not be consumed for a long period of
time, it is usually charged to expense at once, to eliminate the accounting staff
time that would otherwise be required to track it as an asset.
Expenses associated with the main activity of the business are referred to as
operating expenses. Expenses associated with a peripheral activity are non-
operating or other expenses.
Normally can claim expenses relating to mosque (special property) could
include:
Cleaning
Insurance
Utilities
Gas
Sewer
Security
PART B
6 INTRODUCTION OF TUANKU MIZAN ZAINAL ABIDIN MOSQUE
We chose Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque as our case study because it is related to our topic which is special property.
Special property is a property that is limited in use. There is no immediate demand on it. It has limited users and not everybody wants it or in other words, it is a one type of use or limited use.
A mosque is the building in which Muslims worship God. Throughout Islamic history, the mosque was the centre of the community and towns formed around this pivotal building. Nowadays, especially in Muslim countries mosques are found on nearly every street corner, making it is a simple matter for Muslims to attend the five daily prayers.
Mosques were initially meant for religious purposes, however, their functions have evolved over time. For example, after Prophet Muhammad(pbuh) established the Islamic state in Madinah, mosques not only functioned as places of worship but also as administrative centres. Although they no longer function in such a capacity, their role in shaping society continues. In Malaysia, for instance, a mosque serves as a vehicle for transforming governmental policies within the society.
Programs and activities with an Islamic input are carried out in mosques to instil and strengthen Islamic values among community members. Additionally, the proper management and supervision of mosques facilitates their services to the community. Generally, Malaysia’s mosques can be categorized as state, district, qaryah and private mosques. While it would be interesting to study each type, due to time and cost constraints we chose to study only the country’s state mosque which is Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque.
6.1 BACKGROUND OF TUANKU MIZAN ZAINAL ABIDIN MOSQUE
Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque or also known as Iron Mosque is the second principal mosque in Putrajaya, Malaysia after Putra Mosque. The Tunku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque is named in honour of the Seri Paduka Baginda Yang di-Pertuan Agong XIII, Al-Wathiqu Billah Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Ibni Al-Marhum Sultan Mahmud Al-Muktafi Billah Shah, the King of Malaysia. Construction of this magnificent mosque began on the 5th April 2004 and was handed over to the custodianship of the Department of Islamic Development of Malaysia (Jakim) on the 19th August 2009. It was officially opened by the 13th Yang di-Pertuan Agong, Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin on 11 June 2010.
It is located in Precinct 3, Putrajaya opposite the “Palace of Justice”, the impressive home of the Judiciary. The location of the mosque is strategic and interesting, next to Lake Putrajaya and is expected to become a huge attraction for local and international visitors. The lighting design of the building and its reflection on the still waters of the lake, especially at night, will make a beautiful vista providing respite for those in search of peace and tranquillity.
The Tunku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque will be able to accommodate 20,000 pilgrims and workshipers at any given time that will provide a safe and comfortable place of worship for the local community and international visitors too. It is also hoped that the mosque will play a role in the evangelization of Islam and become an Islamic tourist destination as well.
The mosque which is built at a cost of RM200 millio is the only built from 6000 tonnes of steel 70% of the structure, with the remainder of the construction composed of concrete. The main features are the Mosque Building itself and the Kiblat Walk that is a walkway that connects the Putrajaya Administration Complex (PJC) with the Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque.
The mosque was built to cater to approximately 24,000 residents including the government servants working around the city center as well as areas within Precincts 2, 3, 4 and 18. Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque’s area is twice that of Putra Mosque which is located 2.2 kilometres north.
6.2 OBJECTIVES OF TUANKU MIZAN ZAINAL ABIDIN MOSQUE
A mosque is a house of prayer, and a place of prostration. It is a building designed and built specifically for the worship of Allah. It is where Muslims stand shoulder to shoulder, united in their love for God and their desire to please Him.
The objective is to make Tunku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque as a model of integrity management institutions, worship, knowledge dissemination, social and solidarity to the mosque in Malaysia and the world.
Besides that, it is for designing and implementing management of Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque in the terms of Fardhu Ain and Fardhu Kifayah.

“To Allah do we belong, and unto Him is our return”
Death is a harsh and fearful reality faced by everyone who lives. No one has the
power to avoid it, nor does anyone around the dying person have the ability to prevent it.
It is something that happens every moment and is encountered by the old and the young,
the rich and the poor, the strong and the weak. Death is a very painful and emotional
time, and yet it is also a time that may be filled with hope and mercy. Death is a
departure from the life of this world to the eternal life of the hereafter. We pray to Allah
(SWT), the Most Merciful, to have Mercy and Forgiveness on the departed in hopes that
they may find peace and happiness in the life to come.

the Central Funeral office. We conduct the preparation of bodies for funerals/burials and

11 ASSESSMENT OF THE STRENGTH, WEAKNESS, OPPORTUNITIES AND THREAT OF MASJID TUANKU MIZAN ZAINAL ABIDIN
Every property has its own strength, weaknesses, opportunities and threat. We
have visited and observed Masjid Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin to identify the strength
and weaknesses as well as opportunities and threats.
11.1 STRENGTH OF MASJID TUANKU MIZAN ZAINAL ABIDIN
Based on our observation, we have identified the strength of Masjid Tuanku Mizan
Zainal Abidin. Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin mosque has its own uniqueness that makes
the mosque stand out from other state mosques.
The following are the strengths of masjid Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin :
Economical
Large accommodation of pilgrims and worshippers
Unique architectural and interior design
Easy access
Proper maintenance schedule
A. Economical
Figure 27: Architectural metallic wailing screen
Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin mosque is designed based on three concepts
namely “wind, moderation and transparency”. The mosque is said to be
economical as it does not use fans or air-conditioning but uses a gas-cooling
system technology called “Gas District Cooling”. This cooling system
technology reduces cost in terms of utilities cost and maintenance cost.
Furthermore, the cooling system technology is eco-friendly. The main prayer
hall is also surrounded by a pool that will doubtlessly allow the visitors to
experience fresh and cool breeze continuously. Furthermore, the main prayer
hall is surrounded by a marshrabiyah screen that is made up of “lattice” and
an “architectural metallic wailing screen” that serves to allow natural light
and air to flow.
Eventhough the mosque uses an open concept, birds could not enter the
mosque as the mosque uses ultrasonic technology.
B. Large accommodation of pilgrims and worshippers
Figure 28: Large Prayer Hall
Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque can accommodate 20,000 pilgrims
and worshipers at any given time that will provide a safe and comfortable
place of worship for the local community and international visitors.
C. Unique architectural and interior design
Figure 29: Dome with "ALLAH" Caligraphy
Figure 30: "Iron" Mosque with unique architecture
Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque has strived to create its own
identity by not borrowing from Arab design which is the norm, but instead
has looked to Germany and China for inspiration. The uniqueness can further
be seen in the inscription of the calligraphy of the name “Allah” when
viewed from inside the dome from below. Another unique feature is that this
mosque does not possess any minarets unlike other mosque. Furthermore,
this mosque is the only mosque built from 6000 tonnes of steel on 70% of the
structure with the remainder of the construction composed of concrete.
D. Easy access
Figure 31: Pedestrian access through Kiblat Walk
There are many available access roads to Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin
Mosque. This mosque is located in Precint 3, Putrajaya which is opposite the
“Palace of Justice”, the impressive home of the Judiciary. The road accesses
available to Putrajaya are Kuala Lumpur-Putrajaya Expressway (MEX),
SKVE, Utara Selatan Hubungan Tengah (ELITE) Highway, Utara-Selatan
Plus Expressway. The pedestrian access is through the Kiblat Walk that is a
walkway that connects the Putrajaya Administration Complex (PJC) with the
mosque.
E. Proper maintenance schedule
The facility manager of Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque which is
Gumi Asli Elektrikal Sdn. Bhd. has prepared an annual maintenance schedule
which includes electrical, mechanical and civil maintenance and repairs.
They have also made a provision for unplanned repairings. This shows the
facility management has carried out sufficient planning for maintenance and
repair.
11.2 WEAKNESSES OF MASJID TUANKU MIZAN ZAINAL ABIDIN
Based on the questionnaire we have handed out to the pilgrims and worshippers
in Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque in Appendix, we have identified the
weaknesses of Masjid Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin.
A. Internal part of mosque is hot
Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin mosque has its own specialties that make
the mosque stand out from other state mosques. For one, the mosque is very big
and spacious. However, its biggest strength also comes with a price. Due to its’
big space, the Gas District Cooling concept was not enough to cool down the big
area of the mosque, making the place warm.
B. Signage is not clear
Figure 32: Unclear map on directory
Figure 33: Signage in C2
The signage used in this mosque is not clear. Improper color selection for
signage has caused a problem for pilgrims to read the directions especially for
newcomers. Furthermore, the signage is unwelcoming and the walkway to
ablution area is lit with dim lighting which causes pilgrims to have difficulty
reading the signage.
C. Escalator and lift not functioning
Figure 34: Pilgrims using the unfunctioning escalator
Figure 35: Lift Breakdown
We have received a few complaints in the questionnaire whereby visitors
of the mosque had difficulties going up to the Prayer Hall in level one due to the
escalator that is not functioning.
During our visit to Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin mosque, the lift was not
functioning due to the breakdown of the motor and engine of the lift. Since the
escalator is not functioning, pilgrims with disabilities do not have any other
alternatives to go up to the Prayer Hall located in level one (L1).
D. Pool is covered with algae
Figure 36: Pipeline and pool floor covered with algae
The pool surrounding the Prayer Hall in level one is not maintained
properly because there seems to be algae covering the floor of the pool.
E. High cost for maintenance
Due to the big size of the mosque, the amount needed to maintain the
building is high. From 2011 until 2015, the total cost of maintenance is RM 12
million. Most part of the building and services are imported from other countries.
Thus, if there are any parts which need repairing, this incurs a high cost to import
experts from overseas.
F. Broken tiles
Figure 37: Broken tiles along the pavement
There were broken and cracked tiles along the walkway outside Tuanku
Mizan Zainal Abidin mosque. These cracked tiles may disrupt visitors’ safety.
G. Poor maintenance of landscaping
Figure 38: Brown patches
The poor landscaping maintenance can be proven with the figure above
whereby the grass has not been grown properly. This may be due to poor soil
quality or fungal diseases.
11.3 OPPORTUNITIES OF MASJID TUANKU MIZAN ZAINAL ABIDIN
Since Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin mosque is a special property and is owned by
the Government of Malaysia, the mosque is a non-profit organization. However, there
are business opportunities for local entrepreneurs. Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque
provides a space for stalls and booths. For instance, every Ramadhan, Tuanku Mizan
Zainal Abidin Mosque will open up a “Bazaar Ramadhan” to local entrepreneurs along
the Kiblat Walk. Besides that, Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin mosque gives opportunities
to young entrepreneurs every Friday after Friday prayers by letting out spaces in the
mosque with a rental space of RM 25 per table.
11.4 THREAT OF MASJID TUANKU MIZAN ZAINAL ABIDIN
There are two main mosques in Putrajaya which are Putra Mosque and Tuanku
Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque. There might be competition rising from Putra Mosque as
the distance between Putra Mosque and Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque is only
2.2 km. Since both mosques are under JAKIM’s supervision, there is no competition
that occurs.
11.5 RECOMMENDATION COURSE ACTION FOR SHORT TERM
Short-term planning looks at the characteristics of our company in the present
and develops strategies for improving them. The condition of production equipment or
product quality problems is also short-term concerns. To address these issues, we have
to put in place short-term solutions to address problems. These solutions set the stage for
addressing problems more comprehensively in the longer term.
Recommendation course of action for short term is the solution for the problem
that we have identified as weaknesses of the property.
The first weakness is the internal part of mosque is hot. The “Gas District
Cooling” system is used as an air cooling system. District cooling means the centralized
production and distribution of cooling energy. Although the idea is good, malfunction of
this system may caused an expensive repairs. In this case, the maintenance of this
cooling system is not routinely performed which causes the mosque to be hot.
The solution to this problem would be to conduct routine six month maintenance
to this system to ensure perfect performance so that the pilgrims can pray comfortably.
The second weakness is the signage in Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque.
The signage in Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque does not clearly tell the direction,
which will confuse visitors of the mosque, especially for first-time visitor. Furthermore,
the directory is not clear.
We would recommend a different background color for the signage such as
replacing the gray colors signage with a brighter color.
The third weakness is the escalator and lift not functioning. The current
management team stops the escalator from functioning because they say that it is
dangerous for the kids when they play on it. The other reason is that the Jawatankuasa
Keselamatan (JKK) didn’t approve of the running of the lift. The reason is because when
the pilgrims are going to the prayers hall in level 1, their feet are wet from ablution. The
fear is that the water will make it easy for a person to be electrocuted. The lift on the
other hand, its motor has broken down. According to Mr. Samni, the replacement of the
motor costs RM1 million.
We would recommend replacing the escalator with staircases. An escalator that
doesn’t function is useless. It cuts down the maintenance cost and it is cheaper than a
lift. As for the lift, we cannot let the lift to be out of operation as old people and
handicapped people needs the lift the most. So, what we propose is to exchange the lift
to a more durable one.
The fourth weakness is the pool is covered with algae. The pool is used as a
cooling mechanism for the mosque, so if it is covered with algae, the cooling mechanism
doesn’t work that properly Aesthetically speaking, a pool covered with algae is not a
good sight to behold.
So, solving the problem is quite easy. The management team should hire a pool
cleaner regularly.
The fifth weakness is the cracking of tiles. The tiles should be replaced
immediately to ensure visitors’ safety. Management should appoint the contractor in
charge to repair the damage of the tiles.
The next weakness of Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque is improper
maintenance of landscaping. The grass in level one seems to be having brown patches
which may be due to poor soil quality or fungal diseases. To solve this problem, the
management could change tne of he soil to a better choice of soil quality or adapt a more
frequent routine of pest control to control the fungal diseases.
11.6 RECOMMENDATION COURSE ACTION FOR MIDDLE TERM
Medium-term planning applies more permanent solutions to short-term
problems. If training courses for employees solved problems in the short term, our
company will schedule training programs for the medium term. If there are quality
issues, the medium-term response is to revise and strengthen our company's quality
control program. Medium-term planning implements policies and procedures to ensure
that short-term problems don't recur.
Medium term recommendation course of action is to arrange with service
contractor according to the schedule to prevent problems from recurring. Service
contractors could be from an outsource or in-house service contractor.
Cleaning maintenance of this mosque is done by an outsource cleaning company
through a contract. The problem that occurs from this is the lack of commitment from
the staff of the cleaning company towards the awareness of the importance of cleanliness
in maintaining the image of the building. We would recommend hiring the right and
suitable cleaning contractors that will carry out their responsibilities thoroughly and
efficiently as well as running a company background check of the cleaning contractor to
avoid problems in the future.
Furthermore, since the lift costs a high amount to replace the motor, we would
suggest carrying out servicing and maintenance of the lift every month to avoid the
breakdown of the lift. Monthly servicing will cut down cost by preventing a bigger
mechanical lift problem from occurring in the long run.
11.7 RECOMMENDATION COURSE ACTION FOR LONG TERM
One of the biggest problem the management team faces is the maintenance part.
The maintenance not only takes a considerable amount of time, but also a lot of money.
Typically speaking, for maintenance alone, the management team has spent close to
RM12million since 2011 until the year 2015. The money and time spent towards
maintenance could be put to better use for other things.
To solve this problem, we should first look at the root of it all. The reason why
the maintenance cost a lot of time and money is because the maintenance is done by
foreign engineers. This is partly because the technology used to construct the buildings
is from foreign countries. Not only that, the parts for maintenance also came from a
different country. So, to transport the engineers and the parts cost a lot of time and
money.
To solve this, we have come to two different solutions that may work. One is to
replace all part with locally made part. This might be a challenging task as replacing the
parts will not only cost money, but also time as well. But in the long run, the
maintenance fee will be cheap so it will be worth it.
The other solution is to send our young brightest talent to foreign countries to
learn the technologies available there. So, when these young talents come back, they will
be able to create and fix the parts required in the maintenance.
CONCLUSION
Without a doubt Tuanku Mizan Zainal Abidin Mosque is a spectacular building in
Putrajaya. It is well known as the Iron Mosque due to the heavy use of steel in its
construction. Managing a state mosque is not an easy task for any property manager as
the area of the mosque is big which requires a very high maintenance and servicing. We
have learned on how to strategize our management plan and how to take over the
management of special properties. The process of taking over a property is not as simple
as black and white. It requires a lot of data inspection and site inspection to avoid any
problems in the future. From our interview with the Islamic Officer, Engineering
supervisor and the facility manager, we have learned on how to manage a building and
how to sustain a mosque. It is very important that every property manager is able to
manage and sustain the property to maximize its value and keeping a good condition of
the building structure.
Besides that, from our observation and experience through this mosque, we have
also learned that mosque is a clean and serene place where pilgrims and worshipers
come to the mosque to face and talk to God.
