Khalid Samad promises to do what Mahathir tried for 22 years but failed

(The Edge) – The Federal Territories Ministry will review the Kampung Baru Detailed Development Master Plan (PITPKB) to continue efforts to redevelop the village which has existed for 118 years.

Its Minister Khalid Abdul Samad said the development is necessary and he would discuss the matter with Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad to come up with a different approach which does not burden the government too much.

“I will discuss this matter with the Prime Minister, perhaps he has his own vision of Kampung Baru’s development, because this needs a clear plan.
