THE multi-billion ringgit River of Life (RoL) project to clean up, beautify and redevelop a 110km stretch of the rivers in Greater Kuala Lumpur by 2020, if done holistically, will shore up Kuala Lumpur’s global liveability index and open vast tracts of river-front land for development.
The decade long anchor project under the Government’s Economic Transformation Programme, initiated under the Greater Kuala Lumpur National Key Economic Area, is to breathe new life into dirty and polluted rivers which have been rendered lifeless after years of neglect and exploitation.
