TTDI vs DBKL: A Problematic Plan

The fight to save Taman Rimba Kiara from development is far from over. The recently gazetted Kuala Lumpur City Plan 2020 - which was made public on the 12th of November - reveals that the park has been rezoned with the possibility for future development. We speak to Hafiz Abu Bakar, the Chairman of the TTDI Residents Association and Leon Koay, a member of the Save Taman Rimba Kiara Working Group about this new twist in this plot, and why they believe this new plan contains flawed zoning of Taman Rimba Kiara (TRK).
