Doubts over land sales

THE sale of several plots of prime land belonging to Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) has raised doubts over it being in the best interest of the public. It has also caused Cheras MP Tan Kok Wai to see red.

“These deals were not done through open tender and there were existing facilities on the land. In fact, redeveloping these lands will cost the public because DBKL will have to rebuild these facilities elsewhere,” he said in a press conference, recently.
