There is no LDP prior to 1998 lah. That time,
- on Central PJ side,there was a dual carriage way road from KDU all the way to Kelana Jaya & ended up joining fed highway at sg way ( without the bridge). On Sunway side, the road is a dead end till the current Caltex stn b4 the toll plaza. Sunway was so peaceful and quiet prior to 1998.

-on Northern PJ side, the road after KDU or after Uptown Damansara was just a narrow kampung road i.e Jln Damansara all the way to Kepong - yeah toll free and jam for sure.

-on puchong side, there was no road linking Sunway to Puchong - didn't exist at all. The main road was the okr - kinrara till puchong perdana ( which was upgraded to 2 lanes in mid 90's. After puchong Perdana, it was a tiny jalan Puchong lama linking from Hicom shah alam to puchong and thereafter a very winding narrow road thru Pulau Meranti and never ending narrow road with a branch towards dengkil & another towards kajang..really narrow prior to yr 2000!

ah.Sungai Way free zone industrial area.got Monsanto back in the 70s. Seaport Estate aka kelana jaya area was rubber tree plantations back then before 70s. the road was quite small back then towards taman tun then towards bukit lanjan and kepong , quite dark to drive around at night.

sunway? used to be called petaling tin area. you can see the whole place full of white sand

DCM, Comic's Corner, Diamond Comic and one more comic shop forgot its name. One at flat near 3k hall, one near dewan serbaguna ss15, one near Silva restaurant ss15, another opposite Carrefour/Aeon Big ss 15. Also the cinema Pawagam P. Ramlee, all gone. @.@
