NSTnation KBDC assures landowners the redevelopment project in KL's oldest Malay enclave will go on despite the change in federal government KampungBaru
KBDC chief executive officer Datuk Zulkurnain Hassan says unless told otherwise, plans will go on as per previous instructions.
He says 60 per cent of the 5,359 registered landowners in Kampung Baru have agreed to the government offer in the land sale, and it needs to reach a referendum of 80 per cent of them before a decision can be made on whether to proceed or scrap the proposal. “The best scenario is wholesale development, due to the land caveats and a need for the amalgamation of the smaller plots.
“But it does not mean that if we fail to do what the previous administration envisioned, we should feel our efforts have been wasted. “KBDC is facilitating redevelopment by bridging the gap between developer and landowner to negotiate a deal to ensure there is mutual understanding to go ahead with any project.”“About 32 or 33 per cent of landowners agreed to it in December.“We still need at least another 35 per cent of landowners.”
