6. Transit terminals Based on the structure plan and its implementation, you cannot go wrong if you were to invest in properties around major train terminals. To reinforce the strategy of providing complete and integrated transport linkages, more intensive development near to transit terminals shall be actively promoted by DBKL. Mixed-use development incorporating high-density residential, high plot ratio commercial as well as community and business facilities shall be encouraged, thus greatly reducing reliance on private transportation by making accessibility flexible and convenient.

Amongst those locations identified are:

Chow Kit
Jalan Tun Razak (Tuanku Abdul Rahman Flats)
Pudu/Hang Tuah
KTM Station Sentul, Sentul Timur/Bandar Baru Sentul
Wangsa Maju, Datuk Keramat
Maluri
While we have covered a lot of locations, we would also like to emphasis that there are ample opportunities in the tourism and hospitality industries as DBKL is strongly emphasizing its importance and promotion. A zonal approach for tourism development, promotion and operation will be implemented with the City Centre as its core, focusing on shopping, MICE, culture, entertainment, dining, health and education. Key areas within the other four strategic zones will focus on more specific tourism activities. Bukit Jalil-Seputeh will focus on sports and MICE, Wangsa Maju-Maluri on industrial tourism, Damansara-Penchala on education and agro-tourism and Bandar Tun Razak-Sungai Besi on eco-tourism. A special mention has to be made for the service apartment sector whereby DBKL has made it a policy that they “shall ensure that there is adequate provision of commercial apartments with convenient access to the main business areas”.
