Episode: Taman Rimba Kiara (Part 2) - Unmasking Murky Development
Description: What is the ethos of planning that our laws recognise and how far is actual governance from it? The judgement of the Court of Appeal that quashed a DBKL development order for a proposed high-rise project in the area highlighted issues of governance - conflicts of interests, duty to provide reasons for decisions, to adhere to plans - and in this instance, the KL Structure Plan. Melisa Idris and Sharaad Kuttan speak to Datuk Dr Gurdial Singh Nijah, lead counsel for the TTDI Residents about the significance of the judgement.
