Threat looming over Taman Rimba


High Point : The Mont’Kiara Skyline can be seen from the trail.

IF you open the “Taman Rimba Bukit Kiara – Official Portal Visit Kuala Lumpur” site on the Internet, you will see a picture of two leaves. This picture shows the purity and untouched nature of the park.

But this situation may soon be a thing of the past as the mayor of Kuala Lumpur issued a notice last week informing that he had received an application for planning permission to develop a 29-storey block of affordable housing (350 units) and eight blocks of serviced apartments ranging from 42 to 54 storeys (1,766 units) here.
