In a city as dynamic as Kuala Lumpur, the drive for urban renewal brings both opportunities and challenges. KLRA+ SD, a network of resident associations, NGOs, and academic institutions, is dedicated to advocating for policies that prioritise community interests over purely transactional property development. We speak to Tan Booi Charn (Chairperson, KLRA+ SD), Han Jun Siew (Volunteer, KLRA+ SD) and independent researcher Peter Leong, to discuss KLRA+ SD's efforts to create a sustainable and liveable Kuala Lumpur.  They will also touch on pressing concerns surrounding the proposed Urban Renewal Act (URA), discussing issues like the role of DBKL, transparency in redevelopment processes, social safeguards for residents, and the importance of responsible urban renewal that respects community voices.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
