THE controversy sparked by Klang Municipal Council’s (MPK) unilateral decision to rename Chetty Padang appears to have been settled, with the recreational field’s original moniker likely to be retained in some form.

Selangor infrastructure and public amenities, agriculture modernisation and agro-based industry committee chairman Izham Hashim said there were plans to retain the area’s heritage following discussions with stakeholders.
