A tale of two city parks
THE Taman Tugu project is a not-for-profit corporate social responsibility initiative led by Khazanah Nasional Berhad with the support of the public sector, private sector and civil society. It conserves 68 acres of prime land green-lung in the heart of the city and is open to the public for free.
The former Khazanah managing director engaged the public and relevant stakeholders on details of the taman. The advertorial showed the total land size is reduced from 12 to 8 acres and the apartment blocks reduced by 50%. In creating a harmonious development in the communities they operate, the developer will contribute 4 acres to the community. The longhouse settlers’ rights remain protected besides a larger land size allocated for the existing temple.
But there is an appeal against a High Court decision in November 2018 that says DBKL’s DO was proper and valid. The Court of Appeal’s hearing on September 10 was postponed to November. Whatever the decision, the case may escalate to the Federal Court.
