The proposed Urban Renewal Act continues to be a source of concern for residents' associations, with a group calling on Putrajaya to withdraw the Bill and review the consent threshold required by developers to take over redevelopment projects.

The associations felt that the current threshold is too low because, under the Urban Renewal Bill, 80% consent is needed for buildings less than 30 years old, 75% for buildings older than 30 years, and 51% for abandoned structures.

00:00Good morning, everyone!
00:20First of all, I would like to say that
00:22Kian Lare Plastasti
00:24we do not object
00:26renewal. Urban renewal is good.
00:28But if it needs to be done
00:30it has to be done properly
00:32with proper safeguard to protect the rights
00:34of the people, of the house owners
00:36Okay, history
00:38KLRA Plus SD
00:40we have been engaging
00:42with the KPKT agency
00:44Plan Malaysia since last
00:46year. We have three
00:48official meetings in February
00:502024, November
00:522024 and July 2025
00:54on 21st of
00:56August
00:58When the first reading in Parliament happened
01:00we were shocked
01:02to find out that almost
01:04all of our key
01:06points that we proposed
01:08were not taken into consideration
01:10Okay, this is
01:12very frustrating
01:14and very upsetting
01:16to our working group
01:18has spent tremendous
01:20time and efforts
01:22in coming up with all
01:24this high quality
01:26points, inputs, constructive
01:28suggestions by seeing
01:30many experts, advisers
01:32to get all these points
01:34To the government, please
01:36withdraw the RUU URA
01:38immediately
01:40do not proceed the second
01:42and the third reading
01:44Okay, if the government
01:46cannot do it right
01:48it's better not to do it at all
01:50With this URA
01:52you are actually waging a war
01:54artificially creating
01:56a trigger of war
01:57between people who want
01:58to participate and people
01:59who do not want to participate
02:00You are now dividing our society
02:02We fought so long for the
02:04Strata Management Act
02:05previously known as
02:06Building Common Property Act
02:07nearly about 20 years already
02:09in such a way
02:10power is given back to the people
02:11to manage it ourselves
02:12We now got GMB
02:14Joint Management Body
02:15We now got Management Corporation
02:16to rent it
02:17and we got Resident Association
02:19But with this URA
02:20you are actually dividing us
02:21into two pieces
02:22The yes
02:23who wants to participate
02:24and the no
02:25who do not want to participate
02:27Now, I don't understand
02:28why the government at court
02:29has asked for a threshold
02:31of a benchmark of 30 years
02:33Why 30 years?
02:35Now, um...
02:37Look at it this way
02:39The Minister even accepted the fact
02:41that the building lifespan
02:43is 70 years
02:45It is in the newspaper
02:46He said the lifetime of building
02:47is 70 years
02:48Why did you choose 30 years?
02:50What's so favorable about
02:51about 30 years?
02:52My mum is 90 years old
02:54If it's 30 years
02:55this law is passed
02:56she got to go to
02:57three cycles of redevelopment
02:5930 years plus 30 years
03:00She'll be involved
03:01in this kind of things
