A PROPOSAL to develop or commercialise a section of the Subang Ria Park in SS12, Subang Jaya, is not sitting well with local residents and stakeholders.

Former Subang Jaya Residents Association (SJRA) chairman A.S. Gill, 74, said they opposed the application to convert a portion of the 29.39ha park in the Subang Jaya City Council (MBSJ) Draft Local Plan 2035 (Amendment 1).
