History of Housing Design and Development in Malaysia

Have you ever wondered how our residential and housing areas in the city and in the country were conceptualised and designed? How did we arrive at the kind of houses that most of us live in today? From terrace houses to bungalows and low cost apartments to high end condominiums? We unpack all these questions and how our housing developments affect our relationship with each other in this episode of I Love KL.
