Shah Alam Stadium: Repurpose, not demolish


Give it new life: An aerial view of the Shah Alam Stadium post-flooding in December last year. — IZZRAFIQ ALIAS/The Star

IT has been reported that there are plans to demolish the Shah Alam Stadium, which has major structural defects, and build a smaller stadium on the same site.

It’s sad news for the people of Shah Alam as the stadium helps to define the landscape and identity of Selangor as a whole – and its size is a point of pride too.
