Jalan Alor plans to be finalised soon



THE plans for the project to upgrade and beautify Jalan Alor in Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur, are expected to be finalised this year.

Kuala Lumpur mayor Datuk Seri Ahmad Phesal Talib said despite the delay, it would still go on.

On Aug 22, 2013 last year, Ahmad Phesal had announced that the project to turn Jalan Alor into a food paradise of international standards would begin in October last year and be completed within 11 months.

He had said that none of the residents of the more than 200 apartments and 100 traders in the area would be displaced by the project.

“The Tourism Ministry supports our plans.

“However, we have to look into the details again due to several reasons including the many pipes that are in the drains,” he said during a press conference after meeting 11 of the MPs for Kuala Lumpur at the DBKL headquarters.

He also said City Hall needed to engage the stakeholders in the area to get their agreement for the plan.

“When we start implementing the plan, it will cause hawkers to stop work.

“We must also look into the traffic system there, taking into consideration there are residents staying in the flats nearby,” he said.

He said all these needed to be considered to create an efficient design that included traffic management, before starting work.

Ahmad Phesal said DBKL hoped to start work on the project next year.

“However, if we can start earlier, it would be better,” he said.

He disclosed that RM12mil had been allocated for the project.

“If more is needed, then we will study the allocation again,” he added.

Ahmad Phesal said City Hall would be drawing up a detailed paper to the Attorney-General’s Chambers on the proposal to appoint an extra magistrate for the municipal court to hear more cases.

“We will propose the appointment of a magistrate and DBKL will be responsible for his pay,” he said.

He said this would help expedite proceedings against those caught flouting the law, including illegal carpark operators.

Earlier, Segambut MP Lim Lip Eng said he had bought up the issue of illegal carpark operators who operated at night in Sri Hartamas and Bukit Bintang, adding that more enforcement was needed to eliminate the problem.

During the meeting, Ahmad Phesal said a taskforce would be set up to discuss Budget 2015.

“We will be organising a dialogue with stakeholders on Budget 2015.

“We will be inviting residents associations, hawkers and interested parties to the dialogue, starting on Sept 17, to get their input. This will help in ensuring the budget fulfills their expectations as stakeholders,” he said.

The mayor also brought up the issue of vandalism at the meeting, saying that it had resulted in big losses for DBKL.

He said the costs, including repair of vandalised fences, amounted to about RM12mil while mechanical maintenance cost DBKL about RM27.4mil.

“I have informed the MPs to help raise awareness and seek cooperation from the public on this issue,” he added.

Why? This is kinda small scale upgrade project that not require much faith. Not very interesting design but better than none...

still better than none

Hmm... i vaguely remember... really strange. I own Gamuda share, practically share holder, not sure what is my relationship with the directors...

What do you mean by "Internal Purchases" ? Staff purchases included ? but staff dont normally related to directors.

Was told phase 2 open for sale in Sep. Any updates anyone?

huh? really dont understand why GL staff want to keep it so secretive. Not that we did not ask before in sale gallery, but the answer is always "we dont know yet". Not that people will sue you when the publish price is different from your indicative price. Sound so chicken.

easy man, investment is fun, enjoy casual sharing, of course insider news always appreciated.

Since you are from GL, dont you think your official news source, the website is very not informative and not attractive... improve please, more news please so we dont need to "speculate"

RM10 says 1388

If i remember correctly , the price difference between UF & FF is around 100K.
So, if UF RM1300 - RM1500 ( kinda agree)
Then FF should be around RM1450 - RM1650

It is good to revive. How successful is another matter at least TR residents won't end up exposed to Denggi threat.

The article mentioned they remain the plot ratio which is kinda good news.

Point spot on! No base dbkl

Oh yeah win ipad mini !!

So any news on the next phase launch?

cool, this range is exactly my guess
not too bad

What has already included to reach 730k?
3% early bird?
Bumi discount?
Published price or internal price?
