•The city needs to expand and construct more
residential areas as the number of residents is

•As Petaling is a conurbation, Kajang town
itself should be combined with Bandar Baru
Bangi which is under Kajang Municipal Council
•Some towns such as Bandar Baru Bangi is
quietly improved and new Kajang 2 still under
construction which contribute on the
developmental sustainability

the development of Kajang itself, Kajang need
more police posts and police patrols
•Some places in Kajang that have less safety
like in Kajang Town
•Kajang itself has many hidden places that
may cause of criminality

that always happen crime activities
•The residents must have civic intention
and always help people when they in
difficult situation

label on them.
•Use solar power to heat water and
pools, cook, and light homes and
buildings

20. AIR QUALITY
•The air quality in Kajang centre is quite good.
•The main source of the pollution comes from
the traffic congestion
•Kajang needs a recreational park as much as
the balance of ecosystem and air quality
•Traffic jam at Jalan Bangi and Jalan Reko
every peak hour causes air pollution,
especially the blue public buses (the old one)

21. AIR QUALITY
•To overcome this problem:
•Reduce the number of the blue
public buses and increase the
number of RapidKL

like as Bandar Maharani did, or
provide treatment system for surface
water runoff (Melaka)

24. CONCLUSION

communities of varied intensities as much as
supporting ‘completeness’ in planning for and
timely ‘completion’ of communities
