What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Residents from Bukit Jalil, Bandar Kinrara, and Taman Puncak Jalil, supported by MP Teresa Kok, urged the government to halt project registration for the 17,000-unit Bandar Madani Bukit Jalil project. The residents objected to the project, stating that the high density of the units on 26.3ha of land is inconsistent with the Kuala Lumpur Local Plan 2040. The memorandum was forwarded to Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
