Tragedy struck at The Geong, a popular tourist attraction located in the Limpakuwus Pine Forest in Banyumas regency, Central Java on Wednesday. The attraction’s iconic 10m-high glass bridge unexpectedly gave way, leaving one dead and three others injured.
Barely six months after the Federal Court reaffirmed a Court of Appeal decision to quash the development order for a high-rise project in one of Kuala Lumpur’s beloved parks in Taman Tun Dr Ismail , we find ourselves mourning the loss of another popular green space.
To put things into perspective, the size of the Setapak park land nearly matches that of Taman Rimba Kiara, spanning approximately 10.1ha – equivalent to 17 football fields. In the case of Taman Rekreasi Ayer Panas, I was told by a Federal Territory Land and Mines Office officer that even though it was government-owned land, it was not gazetted.
This is especially so given that these land sales are contradictory to Kuala Lumpur Structure Plan 2020 , which is currently in force. Even if the land is not owned by DBKL but by another agency, the mayor, who approves development orders, owes ratepayers an explanation.
