‘Poor maintenance culture to blame for rundown Dataran Klang@Padang Chetty’


Children used to enjoy fountain lights in the evening but this feature has been in disrepair for about a year. Some of the tiles are also missing, and the water is stagnant in the metre-deep pool.

DATARAN Klang@Padang Chetty opened to the public with much fanfare in June 2021, having undergone a RM2.5mil refurbishment.

It was Klang Municipal Council’s (MPK) attempt to rejuvenate the area formerly known as Padang Chetty, a field popular with hockey and football enthusiasts.
