PETALING JAYA: A group of concerned parents is looking to bring judicial review proceedings over a planned 46-storey building project next to The International School @ ParkCity in Desa ParkCity, Kuala Lumpur.

A parent who asked to be known only as Lee said numerous pleas made to property developer Perdana ParkCity for the project to be reconsidered have fallen on deaf ears.

“We are planning to file for a judicial review and will ask that work be suspended pending the disposal of the case,” she told FMT.

Lee claimed the project was initially planned for another location, but was relocated to an empty plot of land next to the school. An announcement made during a quarterly parents’ meeting in January, caused an uproar, she said.

Construction of ParkCity Tower, a 46-storey office building, is set to begin this year and scheduled for completion by 2029.

Lee said construction has not yet begun, but a tall crane was brought in on April 28 to conduct groundwork near the school’s field, causing panic among many children and parents.

She said the crane has since left the site, but parents remain uneasy after seeing videos on social media showing the crane operating in close proximity to the school.

The parents’ committee, which has been outspoken on the issue, has since been served with a legal notice from the developer warning them against speaking out against the project.

A 42-year-old parent, who asked to be identified only as Chia, said she may withdraw her child from the school if safety issues persist.

“It is a major concern, especially seeing how close the crane was to the school field where children play and run freely,” she told FMT.

Another parent and resident of Desa ParkCity who spoke to FMT on condition of anonymity also expressed concerns for the safety of her child.

“It has only been a year since the new primary school building was inaugurated. Now they tell us a massive tower will be built next to it,” she said.

She said Desa ParkCity is a small township, and many students cycle to school, including her son. The presence of heavy construction machinery on the surrounding roads pose a real safety risk, she said.

She said the project will also cause major traffic congestion, affecting the nearby hospital across the road, and called for a proper evaluation of the potential impact of the development on the community.

Instead of enrolling their kids at another school, the parents decided to sue to land owner and developer for building on their own land.

What kind of logic is this?

rich people problem

I don't think they have a case...it's not their land

Orang kaya

Damn

Looking at heavy machinery also already ketaq lutut?

Damn strawberry parents

But it's Desa Park City

Orang kaya

You own land you wanna build any low rise building is your freedom.

For high rise like this still depends on govt approval

But their chances at winning super low la

Macam ni pun bole ah ... so entitled.

I know the richer you are the easier it is to bend the rule...but when the news become public interest...it will be difficult...need to follow law dy

B40s no $$$ to be entitled

entitled orang kaya problem. U can see this type of parents at any private school.

developer has already sold all units ?

so unless the govt rescind approval which is highly unlikely the project will proceed...

good luck to the parents as they have an uphill battle..they may be able to secure a court order to freeze the construction
while waiting for the courts to decide...

They are questioning the feasibility of building a condo beside a school

Originally the condo should not be there

They might have a case if they can get good lawyers

The developer should just buy the school land and demolish it to build shopping center ....

People want to renovate their own house also need permission, but the developer want to build high-rise anywhere, no problem, semua approved even in rainwater catchment area, janji duit masuk, kenyang kene suap.

you definitely aren't a parent to be saying this. Moving a child from one school in the middle of the year? Friendships? Teacher relationship? Mean nothing izit?

Can’t imagine what’s the need to build an office building in a residential area, roads are too narrow, only rich ppl goyang kaki live there

What case?

It is condo for god sake .. not a factory, utility or industrial park that can create disturbance and danger to the children


Just another rich ppl not in my backyard stupidity

You want the whole world to stop revolving because your kid is studying in that school?

For example. Can I tell you to cut down the tree in the yard in your home because the leaves from your tree is dirtying my side of the house?


If you are not happy with the school, you can bring your business elsewhere. Its not your land.

Nampak crane they already envisioned the crane will collapse, towards the side of the school.

Heard construction will start they already expect heavy machineries will hit one of the school kids.

Geng!

Rich till can fight in court.. not bad

Rich pipur probrem

They are questioning how a condo project gets approved beside a school as the original condo project was somewhere else

T1 logic, desway ko tak paham logic tu. Work harder.

We have a lot of self entitled people around.

Rich then go find land and build your own school la. Then no such problem.

Yes sarahan saya. I will work harder from now on.

Janji ada wang maa…

Dpc poorperly price will likely remain stagnant.

Developer sued the parents first and now the parents suing back. Will drag and tangle in court for years. Bye2 for the buyers.

It is a question of zoning now. Since we do not have right to sunlight law.

Then my rebuke is, need so many stupid tall compact condos in Malaysia? Even kuching starting to have this sickness.

I think it is reasonable for the parents to protest lah.

Imagine the kids are learning in classroom, and outside ketung ketung deafening noises by the construction.

topkek....
if SMK or SJKC, I suppork parents....
but international school.... go die la....

Sohai rich kids schools

i think the school also own by the developer

Waiting for another Bukit Bintang crane death later.

Sue first, if later construction ongoing got any incident. Instant ka-chinggg

Why? rich kids not human?

reptilian

Why cannot send to government school that is not near any high rise construction?

Must die die send to international school then complain about it?

we always laugh at the name of this school "THE INTERNATIONAL SCHOOL" WTF

https://g.co/kgs/PkYJrMF

DesaPark City so crowded these days.

Confirm lose case, the lawyer must be happy collecting the fee from this bunch of rich parents. Once town council given green light it is very hard to u-turn.

Unless accident happen then they only got chance to fight, if they are so rich why not buy over the land from Desa Park developer.

knn need so many condo for what ...

this DBKL beside condo nothing else they can do.

Parent sue developer because they afraid the crane will fall down? Lol

as like KL is not enough of condo
got land? more condo for you

inb4 rich

but not rich enough to buy over the land


owaiiiii

build high rise baru can earn more

this is the one that building-to-building gap only 8 meters...

DPC developer maximizing profit before no more land there

property agent fearmongering ppl as always:

"LAST PLOT OF LAND AT DPC!!!!! BUY NOW OR REGRET!!!!!"

There's a song called Usir Ketakutan, listen to it and maybe you'll understand why some fight instead of running away.

KAU JANGAN gelak

nanti cyberjaya ada DPC 2.0 tau

Didn't know so many corpo dick suckers here in /k. DBKL famous for letting every land be turned into a condo or a mall without doing proper zoning or studies or road expansions. Then developers one kind, every nook and cranny must build condo. No other innovations or thinking outside the box to turn the land to be a greenery. Look at Singapore on how they balance out high rise to greenery and walkability plus public transportation in mind.

This is dangerous. Later pedo hide in carpark to take pic of the young childrens.

They green eye because it’s T20 area

Look at the top comment. Kids aren't humans if they are rich.

There is no law against a condo built beside school. I can give tons of example condo/apartment beside a school

The land also owned by developer, they can build anything they want as long its not a factory, utility (tnb, indah water) or industrial building use that comes with certain restrictions

can developer sue them back?
lol

What you talking about?

In Singapore they put schools alongside HDB condos to promote urban walkability for school children from their home to the school

What Desa Park City doing is good.. instead of kids being ferried by hundred or cars and long distance between their home and school, now the family have option to live just beside the school and their kids can now commute easily and safely by walking

those parents feeling kena scammed

when they first bought DPC coz the environment got greeneries

now the developer wanna milk every inches of the land and build condo on it

op coz the parents mad

Should give discount during the construction period then can easily replace the students who leave and those who stay can’t complain

Hard to suckcess…

Type C pipur dont like Cyberjaya

dont worry

u are going to see cb agent membawang say xx minutes to kl

zoning code is a thing

Nope. U go read dpc 2.0 thread then u can see cyberjaya suddenly become a beautiful city and location

Even developer also got die hard fans.Topkek

many school close soon.

Birth rate woes hit China where schools are closing for lack of children

Provinces Jiangxi, Hubei and Hunan are also cutting back on teacher jobs, putting added pressure on a bleak labour market
https://www.scmp.com/news/china/politics/ar...g-lack-children

Likely these are the entitled ppl tat should be paying full price or taxed ron 95

normal la Malaysia , if any incident happen, just put a price, can gao dim behind

But… the dpc 2.0 location on the other side of the highway though. In Puchong area. Still consider Cyberjaya area kaa? 👀

Cyberjaya MP Sepang will nego with Puchong realligned the sempadan arh? 😅

why need another block

arkadia also dead town, so many empty units, even the main part got empty lots, many business ddying there

they want oversupply with more units for fucks ah

More like they want to protect their house value due to the limited numbers in the market

Yeah nothing to do with school or kids safety

More like low class type c dont like

In upper class cyberjaya residential area like Setia Eco Glade, Symphony Hills, Lakeside, Mah Sing Gardens majority is Type C

stupid parents.
do you know that the tallest building in Sarawak is next to a primary school?

Wow rerri arh? I thought most of those expensip purace is owned by kabel busar type M…

My wife sed she saw Sheila Hamzah youtube vid they stay in Symphony Hills

They think they have the right to whole area surrounding them.

The population of type c in cyberjaya is increasing especially the landed properties

It happened before does not mean it is right

Perdana Lakeview and Mulia Residence is Type M majority

imagine if you are the parents who work there and your kid study next to it. best combo.

Cheebai punya annnehh.. klang people also Tak jumpa..

Sampai symphony hills pun tak jumpa.


Nanti kita settle kat uncle Don

sebab boleh dik
