Bukit Bandaraya folks want high-rise project shelved


The retention pond next to Lorong Maarof will be enclosed according to plans by the developer.

BUKIT Bandaraya residents are urging Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) to cancel the approval for a high-rise residential project next to a water retention pond along Lorong Maarof in Bangsar.

They claim that any development there could result in landslides and flooding in the area, which had already experienced such incidents in October and December last year.
