Finger-pointing on upkeep of KL heritage building


Flashback to StarMetro’s report on April 17.

IT HAS been several days since part of the ceiling and wall of the former Federated Malay States (FMS) Survey Department building in Kuala Lumpur collapsed, but confusion over ownership is affecting its repairs.

Situated at the intersection of Jalan Raja and Jalan Tun Perak, alongside the Bangunan Sultan Abdul Samad complex, the FMS building has been abandoned for over 20 years.
