After further test, it seems that the events work if the JavaScript in on page, I worked out from there that it was because I was using typescript, and the js files were not included in project, including them in project fixed this.
in other projects this step is not necessary.
Thanks

Hi Alan,
I am glad that you were able to solve this yourself.
The Kendo UI TypeScript definitions only complement the Kendo UI widgets and controls and enable strongly-typed definitions. But for Kendo UI widgets to work in the first place, you need the package files included and referenced in your project.
Do not hesitate to ask should you have any other questions.
