Stop the KLORR from Damaging the Park

Taman Negeri Selangor does so much to protect our quality of life, won't you do something to help protect it?  You don't have to be from Ampang or Taman Melawati to love the Park - Taman Negeri Selangor supports the quality of life for residents from all over Selangor, as well as from KL and Putrajaya.  Protecting the Park means protecting YOUR quality of life.


UPDATE:
The Detailed EIA is out for public comment.  Written comments are due to the DOE by 23 Jan. 2012.  The Selangor State Park is not mentioned in the Executive Summary of the DEIA - a glaring oversight by the authors.  Get more info from the Selangor State Park blog entry here.  Don't remain silent - the Park protects the quality of life for all of us.

UPDATE :

An article appeared in the NST, on 2 March 2011, confirming that the plan for the KL Outer Ring Road (KLORR) is currently being evaluated by the Selangor state planning committee, after which it will be presented to the executive councilors before being gazetted.    There is no mention of any public viewing of the plan.

UPDATE:

Based on an article that appeared in  The Edge Financial Daily on 11 August 2011, the construction company Ahmad Zaki Resources Bhd (AZRB) has reached financial close with Bank Pembangunan Malaysia Bhd. for the RM1.5 billion KL Outer Ring Road project.  Financial close is the last hurdle before funds can be drawn down to commence work on a project.  This could indicate that AZRB is finalizing details of the concession agreement with the government and that work on the project could begin soon.

We are not against the KLORR, only its alignment.  The Federal and Selangor State Governments MUST be transparent and enable the public to view all plans and voice their concerns before any approval is given.

We seek YOUR HELP to send a letter to the Menteri Besar of Selangor requesting for a public viewing of plans for KLORR.  We will be attaching  samples that you can choose from if you are not sure what to write.  You can also use them to help you write your own letter.

You can fax or email your letters to the Menteri Besar.  Contact information is as follows:
