We're continuing our coverage on issues found in the Draft Kuala Lumpur Structure Plan 2040 on the show today. Also known as KLSP2040, this draft is a planning document that will guide KL’s physical development over the next 20 years. Several organisations and residents’ associations have taken the initiative to comb through the over-200 page document, and have found several issues in it, some of which we will highlight today.

Get in touch with the folks from Selamatkan KL through their Facebook page, or you can email them at skl.secretariat@gmail.com and copy mumali0404@gmail.com as well in that correspondence.
