AS THE Kuala Selangor District Council (MDKS) awaits the decision from the Urban Wellbeing, Housing and Local Government (KPKT) Ministry to be elevated to municipality status, residents want natural attractions here retained and the pathway to progress be kept as sustainable as possible.

The upgrade from district to municipality for MDKS, which covers 1,194.52 sq km, is expected to take place this year.

The application process is in its final stages.
