Table 3.12: Open Space and Recreation aspects stated in Kuala Lumpur Structure Plan 2020

CF 7 Community facilities provided by CHKL are to be designed and constructed to a high level of quality of provision and the facilities provided shall commensurate with the best achievable standards.

CF 8 CHKL shall ensure that new and existing community facilities for which it is responsible are properly maintained at all times.

CF 9 CHKL shall encourage the provision of diverse community facilities by private sector as an investment alternative.

g. Open Space

The public has become increasingly sophisticated and demanding of a higher quality of provision of community facilities. CHKL must meet these aspirations and aim to provide facilities that are of a standard comparable to other world-class cities.

Maintenance strategies and programs need to be reviewed to be more pro-active so as to ensure that community facilities remain in the best possible condition at all times.

In addition to the provision of community facilities by the public sector, private sector can take opportunities as an investment alternative in provision of various types of high-quality community facilities. This investment alternative in social infrastructure development offers diverse choice of facilities and business and employment opportunities. The potential investment alternatives in the provision of facilities includes day care centers for the specific groups such as the elderly and eco-based resorts for health rehabilitation and beauty health farms.
