00:00This is unfettered development, right?

00:03You're bringing unfettered development into a neighborhood,

00:07and you're going to affect the local community.

00:09You're affecting the very idea of why you came up with this status anyway, right?

00:15Of the National Park.

00:17If this is going to be a model for future parks,

00:20the center parks in Malaysia, this is a very bad model.

00:23But having said that, I commend the work that JLN is doing, right?

00:27I love what you guys are doing.

00:29This is such a bad decentralized idea.

00:33You live in an ideal world.

00:35I don't...

00:36You do, because...

00:37No, no, because...

00:39We know what we should do.

00:40We should stop people from using cars.

00:42Then, we don't need Ka Pa Pa.

00:44Yes.

00:45And the thing is...

00:47We have a Ka Pa Pa.

00:48What they have, they already have a lot of Ka Pa Pa.

00:51You're saying my ideals are wrong, yours is right.

00:53No, no, I'm just saying...

00:55That's what you're saying.

00:57Okay.

00:58Okay.

00:59Okay.

01:00Okay.

01:01The reality today, let's talk about the reality at Rimbang and Bukit Kiara Park.

01:06You come 6am, there are no public buses that have operated at 6am.

01:10When Saturday and Sunday, full of Ka Pa Pa, because people from all over, not just Tamantun, drive here to use the park here.

01:18So, the reality is there is lack of parking space at the current space.

01:23Together with all the Pasar Tani, Pasar Pagi, people selling food and vegetables.

01:27It's a very narrow, narrow road.

01:29That is the reality on the ground today.

01:31You don't want to build a theme park here.

01:32I understand...

01:33You don't want to build a theme park here.

01:34I understand...

01:35You want to encourage limited access.

01:38You want to encourage limited access, food traffic, bicycles, not cars, right?

01:43Look at all the cars that are parked out here.

01:46Pollution and things like that.

01:48Yes.

01:49Yes, Hafiz.

01:50Talk to us.

01:51Especially me, who live next to me.

01:53I think my house has become so much hotter.

01:56Very, very much hotter.

01:57The day that you're all clearing.

01:59I could see that day by day, as you're all clearing.

02:02Of course, when my neighbours were complaining about it,

02:04you were going to live there more quickly in person.

02:06I tell them that, wait, for the first time for 20 years I lived there,

02:09I had sunlight coming in.

02:11I've never had sunlight before.

02:12But now it's not fun anymore.

02:14It's really very hot.

02:16So now I need the architect to provide for me a free changing of all my glass doors.

02:22Correct?

02:23A paper glass door.

02:24Every shading.

02:25That I wouldn't help it.

02:26So I will do that for me.

02:27Because you are talking about trees and trees.

02:29Full relation.

02:30More about human beings.

02:31Here are the human beings that actually live in my Papakakai.

02:34And then we find that day by day, we are getting hotter.

02:38Our neighbours are all productive.

02:41If you can guarantee me that there are going to be no monkeys in my house,

02:45I will start hunting trees in my house.

02:46But you cannot guarantee me that.

02:48Just because I am today also has got monkeys over there.

02:51Correct?

02:52Not right?

02:53So we don't know what to do.
