Earlier this month, Pereka Bandar hosted a forum titled “Towards a National Urban Design Compendium”, aimed at educating Malaysians on the need for our cities to be designed based on principles that are sustainable and all-encompassing. What are the core tenets and philosophies of the National Urban Design Compendium and are we ready to have one? President of Pereka Bandar, Shuhana Shamsuddin, who moderated the event, joined us to share what was discussed.
