Lalu lintas sistematik
Oleh Maiamalina Mohamed Amin

KUALA LUMPUR: Warga kota dijamin sistem jalan raya yang lebih selesa dan komprehensif bermula tahun depan apabila sebahagian besar daripada Bajet 2008 yang diumumkan semalam lebih mengutamakan projek jalan raya selain pembangunan am.

Sebanyak RM501.9 juta atau kira-kira 41.7 peratus daripada peruntukan akan digunakan Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur (DBKL) untuk mewujudkan rangkaian lalu lintas sistematik dan turut menghubungkan pusat bandar dengan pinggir ibu kota.

Datuk Bandar, Datuk Ab Hakim Borhan, berkata bagi bajet tahun depan, pihaknya masih mengutamakan penyediaan kemudahan infrastruktur lebih selesa kepada rakyat termasuk mewujudkan lebih banyak projek pembinaan jalan raya, jalan raya sambungan dan persimpangan bertingkat serta penyelenggaraan.

Katanya, beberapa projek sambungan dan jejambat akan dilaksanakan terutama mempertingkatkan persimpangan bertingkat Jalan Ampang/Jalan Jelatek, Jalan Air Panas hingga Jalan 1/27A serta Jalan Genting Klang selain membabitkan pinggir bandar iaitu Cheras, Kepong, Bandar Tun Razak dan Gombak.


“Untuk Bajet 2008, peruntukan yang sudah diluluskan Kementerian Wilayah Persekutuan adalah sebanyak RM2.457 bilion dengan RM1.256 bilion di bawah bajet pengurusan manakala RM1.202 bilion lagi akan disalurkan untuk pembangunan.



“Daripada jumlah itu (peruntukan pembangunan), sebahagian besarnya digunakan untuk memantapkan kemudahan infrastruktur kerana yakin ia mampu memberi keselesaan kepada warga kota di samping menggalakkan pelabur ke ibu kota.

“Selain itu, tumpuan diberikan kepada aspek lain termasuk perumahan awam, tempat letak kereta dan pembangunan am yang memperlihatkan struktur penting untuk kesejahteraan warga ibu kota,” katanya pada Majlis Pembentangan Bajet 2008 yang diadakan di Bangunan DBKL di sini, semalam.

Ab Hakim berkata bertemakan ‘Bersama Memaju dan Mensejahterakan Kuala Lumpur’, bajet berkenaan diharapkan mampu merangka jalinan kerjasama semua pihak termasuk kerajaan, DBKL, swasta, persatuan, pertubuhan bukan kerajaan (NGO), warga kota dan pelabur untuk sama-sama memajukan ibu kota.

Mengenai mutu perkhidmatan dan produktiviti yang ditawarkan kepada rakyat, katanya, satu perancangan jangka panjang sudah dibuat untuk membangunkan Lot 38 Jalan Pinang di sini, sebagai ibu pejabat baru DBKL yang menempatkan semua jabatannya dalam satu bangunan.

“Ini secara tidak langsung akan lebih memudahkan orang ramai untuk berurusan dengan DBKL pada masa depan selain kemudahan lain seperti teknologi maklumat dan komunikasi (ICT) dan pusat sehenti yang dibangunkan melicinkan lagi pengurusan semua kakitangan,” katanya.

Will this tower then be at the Lot D location? in front of the Mandarin Hotel?

Izzit the piece of land next to One KL, now it is reserved greenery planted with trees.

I believe too because dbkl owned the land.

I'm afraid that your finding rendering always be real here!!! LOL

u mean they gonna tear down the current one and build this?????

u mean they gonna tear down the current one and build this?????
Most likely. Wonder what James Foong has to say about this.

i dunno, Greg. All i know is each time a new mayor step in, new sort of dbkl tower emerges. Guess whats, we never know if one day a high-esteem mayor want a supertall dbkl tower thats beat all previous mayors version.

u mean they gonna tear down the current one and build this?????

i dont think so, thats ll be so political suicide for the mayor. however, if the dbkl want to venture into something commercialism, they must not use the public funds to say, and so they form jv companies with willing partner to source outside funds. But the development must hv the approval from EPU, thats is as much as suggesting govt ll get backfired in the parliment from approving something unnessarily in this case (we hv enuf of dbkl towers in kl, why do we need such one again?).

wisma central ll stay as far as the long thorny issue between the multiple owners of the building still unresolved.

the rendering u got here is located at lot k, in front of the klcc chilling plant. klcc would rather put up a commercial tower than a residential use, since lot k is the most undesirable plot within klcc, with narrow backlane access, and noise, heat polluted out from the chilling plant. supposely imo, the jv btwn klcc - dbkl didnt work out decade ago.

Yes.....you're right. It is a KLCC parcel as Wisma Central still got issues to be resolved.

Whatever the outcome, Wisma Central's current predicament is the result of an ill-planned Strata Title Act. Wisma Central is the first building in Malaysia to obtain a strata title and if fated - the first of its kind to go. However thorny issues between 300+ owners owning 600+ units within the complex is a bit complicated.

Did you guys know that quite a few years back that Wisma Central was nearly redeveloped? A few owners got greedy and they are stuck at where they are.

I dun really know their latest plan cause the last time I am personally involved in was for a proposal and it was like a few years back. Back then, a Japanese-led consortium was the forerunner and we tot that would be it. Unfortunately it is not to be :(

Greening KL’s buildings
Tuesday July 21, 2009
Stories by BAVANI M
Photos by ART CHEN

TO become a world-class city, Kuala Lumpur must also be sustainable. To do that, the city must learn how to reduce its carbon footprint by using natural resources more efficiently, re-use resources and reduce waste. One way of doing this is by designing buildings with minimal negative impact on the environment. StarMetro reports.

IF Kuala Lumpur mayor Datuk Ahmad Fuad Ismail had super- powers, he would transform Kuala Lumpur into a green city with zero carbon footprint. But alas, the mayor is no superman, but he still harbours this vision of seeing KL being developed into a sustainable city whose residents would enjoy living in a zero carbon and waste-free environment.

A bone fide greenie, Fuad has shown that he is one leader who is willing to embrace the green movement by ensuring that developments in the city are environment- friendly.

Therefore when Malaysia introduced its very own Green Building Index (GBI) on May 21, no one was more delighted than Fuad.

http://thestar.com.my/archives/2009/7/21/central/m_pg02roof.jpg

Cooling: Shady trees amid the city’s streets and
buildings provide much-needed relief from the heat.

For the uninitiated, the GBI is a certification tool that will provide guidelines for sustainable development and environment-friendly construction.

Knowing full well that with this tool, new buildings in Kuala Lumpur can be guided and managed to lessen their impact on the environment the mayor is enthusiastic about getting started.

But there is a hitch. The GBI is developed by Pertubuhan Akitek Malaysia (PAM) and the Association of Consulting Engineers Malaysia (ACEM) – two private bodies with no affiliation with the government.

Despite the government’s support, there is not much that Fuad can do to encourage and promote sustainability in the built environment since it concerns policy decision and requires the blessings of, among others, the Federal Territories Ministry, Housing and Local Government Ministry, Public Works Ministry and the new Energy, Green Technology and Water Ministry.

But the mayor is not about to let that stop him. He already speaks of offering incentives to be given out to developers and building owners in the city to design and construct green, sustainable buildings that can conserve energy and water, provide a healthier indoor environment, better connectivity to public transport and the adoption of recycling and green programmes for their projects.

http://thestar.com.my/archives/2009/7/21/central/m_pg03heat.jpg

Bringing the heat down: Building owners can reduce the heat-island effect
by planting more trees and greens around their offices and rooftops.

At a recent interview, Fuad told StarMetro that incentives such as increased plot ratio and reduction in assessment are just some of the perks that could be offered to developers and building owners who are willing to embrace the green mission.

But it is something that needed thought and planning before it could be implemented. Fuad, however, said any project, however, minor that incorporateed the green agenda such as planting more trees, recycling, and composting would indeed be rewarded.

PAM president Lee Chor Wah welcomed Fuad’s suggestion saying that it would be a good incentive for current building owners and developers to embrace the green mission now in order for them to reap its long-term benefits.

“By having our own rating system, we can start with simple tasks such as changing light bulbs to energy- efficient ones, or doing away with paint, or installing solar heaters for buildings and offices,’’ said Lee.

The idea, Lee said, was to provide opportunities for developers, and building owners to design and construct green, sustainable buildings that could provide a healthier indoor environment that would save on energy and water.

planting plants on the rooftop, windows and balconies.

Apart from the long-term benefits, green buildings send the right message about a company or organisation.

According to Lee, foreign and multi-national companies are looking at buying or leasing properties in Asia that are green. Even international brands look for shopping malls that are green before taking up lots in the mall.

“It shows that the particular organisation is committed and responsible about the future,’’ Lee said, adding that it was part of their social responsibility to preserve the environment.

The DBKL should take the lead
Tuesday July 21, 2009

WHILE new housing developments and future buildings in the city are most likely to go green in order for it to enjoy long-term benefits, what happens to old buildings?

A booming city like Kuala Lumpur, is not without its share of colonial buildings. While there is a need to preserve heritage buildings in the city, making them green can further enhance their value and preserve the environment.

Buildings consume more than 50% of the city’s electricity, and a large amount of water, too. But the question remains — can old buildings go green?

PAM president Lee Chor Wah said it was very possible and had been done many times throughout the world.

He conceded that constructing a green building would probably cost a bit initially. But, he said, in the long run the savings derived from reduced operational costs would make the effort worthwhile.

Lee cited the Kuala Lumpur City Hall building as an example. Built in 1981, the DBKL headquarters on Jalan Raja Laut has plenty of potential to go green.

“One does not necessarily have to spend more, but simple things can be done to make the building sustainable. For instance, the DBKL could take steps to reduce energy and water consumption,’’ he said.

This could be done by replacing windows with a type if insulated glass that reduces heat, modifying air conditioning units, lifts, switching to waterless toilets, using notebooks for work stations instead of desktop computers can help the DBKL save thousands of ringgit in energy costs.

It is estimated that the local authority spends a whopping RM310,000 a month on water and electricity, for both its buildings in Jalan Raja Laut and Jalan Raja Abdullah, and that amount could easily be reduced to 30% with green technology.

Alternatively, the DBKL could also plant more trees around the building and enhance its roof top and balcony with plants to reduce the heat-island effect.

On the DBKL’s part, the mayor has initiated several green projects which is expected to help turn Kuala Lumpur into a green city.

The bulk of it involves planting more trees in the city, and carrying out green projects like the green linkage system that involves connecting rivers, lakes, parks, gardens, public walkways, malls, office buildings, to one another with greenery like trees, shrubs to reduce the level of trapped heat and greenhouse gases.

“The greening of the DBKL building will set an example for other buildings in the city,’’ Lee said.

I think that they demolish the current DBKL tower and re-build it.
Area around KLCC is IMHO to precious to waste for a government type of organisation. It makes no sense to me.

headquarters Kuala Lumpur City Hall Local
Existing buildings sufficient for their needs, says mayor
Pearl Lee
Monday, August 17th, 2009 06:08:00
THERE will be no new multimillion ringgit Kuala Lumpur City Hall headquarters to be built in the Golden Triangle anytime soon.

These are the words of Kuala Lumpur mayor Datuk Ahmad Fuad Ismail, who yesterday dismissed uggestions that City Hall was going to have a new headquarters costing RM500 million to be built along Jalan Pinang, next to the Kuala Lumpur Convention.

Though Fuad said there were such proposals before, the idea has been scrapped as it would constitute a wastage of funds if it were to proceed now.

“Our present buildings are sufficient to cater for our needs. There is no need for us to have a new building now.”

He did, however, say that the said land in Jalan Pinang, measuring some 0.53ha, was originally acquired some years ago for the construction of a new City Hall building.

Fuad said the land was now rented to an open-air carpark operator. “We called up the the parties concerned and heard their proposals. But we later thanked them for their suggestions as we felt we didn’t need another building now. It is not a venture that would be viable for the time being,” he said.

“Perhaps in the future, who knows? But, I don’t think there is a need for a new building during my tenure. We are comfortable where we are now and in fact, the decision to not go ahead with the project has been made known to the Federal Territories Minister.” Fuad said City Hall already has three buildings — its headquarters (Menara DBKL 1), Bangunan Wisma PKNS (Menara DBKL 2) in Jalan Raja Laut and Bangunan Wawasan (Menara DBKL 3) in Jalan Raja Abdullah.

Though the headquarters and Bangunan Wawasan are fully used, Ahmad Fuad said renovation works was going on at Wisma PKNS and once completed, staff from the other buildings would be relocated accordingly.

Malay Mail contacted Fuad after Cheras MP Tan Kok Wai revealed that there has been a proposal for the construction of a new City Hall building, costing RM500 million, which was scheduled to be built next to the Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre.

Tan had questioned the nature of the development — which he dubbed as “fishy and scandalous” — as the development, he said, would be a private financing initiative (PFI) funded by a private company.

He had questioned the PFI method being used as it meant that a private company would be funding the project and the government or City Hall would later be paying for the cost either in one lump sum or monthly payments.

“There are no open tenders in PFI systems, unlike a privatisation project, which may or may not allow for open tenders,” Tan said.

“Why is City Hall itself or the government not forking out the sum for this project? KL is rich in funds as it is supported by the Federal Government.”

He added: “A company called Arkitek Urbanisma Sdn Bhd was appointed on Oct 26, 2007, by the Finance Ministry as the consulting architect firm. But just a few days later, on Nov 14 , 2007, another firm, GDP Architects, had been appointed by the then Prime Minister to undertake this project by way of a PFI.”

He said he also had information that City Hall had later sent a supporting letter to the Finance Ministry to revoke the initial agreement it had with AUSB.

Tan added that he had also been made to understand that GDB had later changed its position from consultant architect to developer and it was also given the right to appoint its own consultant architect.

“How can this be? How can, for example, an accounting firm be allowed to audit its own accounts?”

Tan said he was given to understand that City Hall received another application in 2008 from one Syarikat Wasbanas Sdn Bhd — a Dubai investment group — to carry out the project by way of PFI.

He also said GDB and Wasbanas were supposed to work together on the project. “Who is this Dubai investment group? Is the project really going to a Dubai company?

What happened to the government’s pledge to help local developers and contractors, especially in times like this when it is difficult to find job opportunities?”

He also said the location of the new building was not really strategic as it would create a bottleneck in the area and it would not be able to serve the public efficiently.

“Something is fishy here. The people of Kuala Lumpur need answers and an explanation must be given."

We in skyscrapercity forum knew this news long before that Cheras MP found it.It show how ill informed that MP is. Hahaha, he should visit us in our forum more

Why would they move from current location to KLCC?

I think that they demolish the current DBKL tower and re-build it.
Area around KLCC is IMHO to precious to waste for a government type of organisation. It makes no sense to me.

but according to this news Greg...! >>
They want to make such a green building concept at the current DBKL tower! no plan to rebuild tot!!

no need to demolish dbkl old bulding in case they plan to build the new one.

in fact they just can build new building..just leased/sale it so they can make some profit.this profit can be used for kl beautification, etc.

if current dbkl going for refurbishment ,it will be very nice...glass cladding.:banana:..like lot c.

the architecture is dull (not really special). it should build in very creative architecture and that symbolizes the GREEN. show concern to the environment, by not just planting plants on the rooftop and the balcony, but from the inside to outside, from the core to the surface, from rooftop to basment, GREEEEEEEEEN all along.

should them consider plant a gigantic tree inside the tower's atrium, with creeping plants creeping from top to bottom... wow, it is very GREEEEEEEN indeed. build gardens at intermediate levels. artificial waterfall inside the tower, with step stone bridges in the water filled interior corridors, cellings that creates artificial rain giving the feeling of spring(quottro pub in avenue K?), etc etc... that creates residential / office units within nature (forest?), who lives and work inside are ELVES, inhuman.

is this a parody? nope, it's a bad spam. delete this (entry) please.

Sapura Res in pact to develop KLCC land
Published: 2011/07/19
http://www.btimes.com.my/Current_News/BTIMES/articles/20110719212652/Article/index_html

Sapura Resources Bhd has entered into a joint venture agreement with KLCC (Holdings) Sdn Bhd for the development of land measuring 7,605 square metres adjacent to the KLCC Convention Centre.

Under the agreement, Sapura Resources would purchase 51 per cent stake in the joint venture vehicle, Impian Bebas Sdn Bhd, for RM110.678 million cash from KLCC Holdings which would continue to hold the remaining 49 per cent.

"The proposed joint venture is still subject to, amongst others, approval being obtained from the board of directors of Sapura Resources," the company said in a filing to Bursa Malaysia today.

It said the project would include a premier office tower, a convention centre or exhibition hall and a retail podium.

Funding for the project would be by way of equity by the parties into Impian Bebas in the agreed proportions and the external funding to be obtained by Impian Bebas.

"In the event such external funding is not obtained by Impian Bebas, or such funding or financing are obtained but are insufficient, the financial requirements of Impian Bebas shall be met by way of advances from the parties in the agreed proportions or such other fund raising methods as the Board of Impian Bebas deems fit," Sapura Resources said. -- Bernama
