If you're a citizen of Selangor, participation is your right, when it comes to urban planning. The Ampang Jaya Rimba Collective or AJ Rimba for short, want to empower residents of this municipality to participate in the ongoing process for the draft Ampang Jaya Municipal Council Local Plan 2035, which will dictate the types of development being proposed in Ampang Jaya for the next 15 years. Today we'll explore why it's crucial for residents to participate in this public process, and have their voices heard when it comes to urban development.
