the memory of past experience, and it is used to interpret information and to
guide action. (Lynch, 1960) Lastly, liveability is critical to the establishment of a sustainable community.
But ‘liveability’ as a term is exceedingly difficult to define. For some, it is
intrinsically tied to physical amenities such as parks and green space; for
others to cultural offerings, career opportunities, economic dynamism, or
some degree of reasonable safety within which to raise a family. A concrete
provision of services for communities within walking distance is a key compo-
nent of liveability.

The livability of current Sentul is yet to be improved especially in terms of
social facilities. It was found that the provision of recreation areas or green
pocket spaces is generally inadequate within the 500m radius vicinity. The
development of the area mushroomed with the commercial building and
neglecting the social quality and well being of the urban dwellers.

In short, matters of liveability need to be addressed early within planning
processes so as to reconcile the imperatives of sustainable development.

OVERVIEW

3.1 DBKL’S STRUCTURE PLAN 2020 AND YTL CORPORATE’S
FUTURE PLAN

Overview: With the DBKL’s Structure Plan 2020 as a basis on the future
development of Sentul-Menjalara; an in depth analysis and comparison on
YTL Corporate’s future planning are conducted. The directional output made
by YTL Corporation allows a better forecast; providing with a clearer image
whether or not it is undergoing gentrification.

3.2 SUPPORTING EVIDENCE ON URBAN ANALYSIS:
- WOODLANDS REGIONAL CENTRE BY URA,SINGAPORE
- BRICKFIELDS, KL

Overview: The studies on the current and future planning of Sentul are
observed from both the private and government sector’s perspectives. Some
precedents on urban renewal attempts around the world are too sought.
Woodlands Regional Centre planned by URA posted the relevant potential
ability for it to be re-developed into an urban renewal program. This will
help cater to the increasing needs of the population and transport systems.
Besides that, precedent studies on Brickfields are conducted to observe the
local scene as to how gentrification from suburban into a city equipped with
high-rise and transit orientated developments works.

3.3 THE FORECAST AND THE SUGGESTION

Overview: In this section, the analysis and synthesis from all topics are
compiled to study on the timeline comparison of Sentul as a whole. The
findings enable the forecast on the possibility of its future developments.
Note that the conclusion are made as neutral as possible, but reserves the
subjectivity as it poses different character to different users.

3.4 THE CONCLUSION, THE ENHANCEMENT FOR SENTUL

Overview: The investigation throughout the analysis, several proposed

ENDIX 3.1.2 YTL CORPORATION ON FUTURE SENTUL

YTL Corporation’s plan on the new Sentul development was to separate it
into Sentul East & Sentul West referencing the old KTM railway. The districts
are well defined with a clear separation on functions ranging from commer-

Futpuarrkes wPill bleadnev,elwopehdiicntoha azowne awirthdeexcdlusivine hiyghe-eandrre2sid0e0nc7es.. The

developers however boast the luxury of a 35 acres private gated Sentul Park
alongside. Sentul West on the other hand are planned to be a more vibrant,
modern downtown living which embraces the colorful heritage of the Old
Sentul.

The districts on the west side of Sentul are often mistaken as a recreational
district as they are comprised of all types of developments including com-
mercial, residential, cultural and recreational areas. The edges for parks are
however well-defined. The planning that was initially meant to be permeable
to the public will ultimately only be accessible to the residents and tenants
alike.

The nodes of Sentul under the proposal of YTL will be very much scattered.
In other means, there will not be a very strong node, but rather a series of
nodes at every district that helps strengthening the movement of public. The
robustness of nodes will be affected by the character and permeability of
nodes.

The paths are organized and should be equipped with directions and marks
to ease wayfinding. All districts would in the future have their own landmarks
as the buildings would have a minimum of 20 and a maximum of 30 storeys
height. The skyline in the future would be full of high rises. With systematic
town planning, the forms of the urban landscape in the future will be very
much organized.

The supposed rejuvenation of Sentul Market in the future was not realized.

This can be seen in KLSP 2020 whereby a new market will be built right at

the opposite of the KTM station. Neighbor Park (13N.2eiUgnhibt)

By distributing commercial nodes along Jalan Sentul and Jalan Enam, the

future township of Sentul foresees a requirement on widening these paths. A

In terms of complying commercial needs, YTL Corporation has met their Kindergarten (36 Kuninitd)erg
target by erecting medium to high cost residentials. This however has led
to the deterioration of social and environmental sustainability. None of the Market ( 9 unit )
development are set to celebrate the historical aspect of Sentul. Cultural and
recreational nodes are set up only to gather residents within their own district, Market
often neglecting the true elements that should be appreciated.

The KLSP 2020 foresees the application of interconnectivity between LRT
and KTM stations but there was not any transport node to link one another
up.

The market place along with other newly formed nodes would no doubt wors-
en the congestion issues as they lie along the primary path. The upgrading
on main and secondary paths should be the priority of all, but was again not
realized.

nd The Future Sentul .
hat
p Excellence in connectivity, amenities and living environment are characteris-
o tics that are fast emerging in Sentul. While providing an opportunity for urban-
ites to embrace green living within the city, Sentul will contribute for a better
StaEge, quality of life for residents in the neighbourhood and the continued efforts in
transforming Kuala Lumpur to become one of the top 20 most livable cities in
y of the world.
saanndd
os that With the strategic location of transit station and its geographical node from
eeep KL city centre, it is believe that Sentul will be able to ease the problem arising
