THE DEVELOPMENT STAGE OF THE PLACE Few people are aware of the Perdana Botanical Garden's history and centenary age, despite the fact that it is a treasured green oasis of Kuala Lumpur among locals and tourists alike. With the discovery of tin in the upper Klang River valley in the middle of the nineteenth century, Kuala Lumpur had a modest beginning. Rapid expansion followed, but was hampered by a civil conflict that concluded in 1875 with the installation of a British Resident. The Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) intends to shut down activities at the Deer Park due to damage to many trees in an effort to renovate the Perdana Botanical Garden, which was established in the early 1980s. Trees that were 50 years old or older have died, according to Kuala Lumpur Mayor Datuk Seri Ahmad Phesal Talib, as a result of the behaviour and habits of deer in the park. According to Ahmad Phesal, since deer rub their horns on tree trunks, the damage to the trees' bark causes the trees to die. 07.
DESIGN STANDARD Our main attraction is Taman Rusa KL which is a two-hectare enclosure, this place used to be home to several deer including one. Deer is known as chevrotain which is the smallest hoofed animal in the world. This KL Deer Park is located in the Perdana Botanical Garden Jalan Kebun Bunga Tasik Perdana Kuala Lumpur. In the valley facing the lakeside under the hillside of Lakeside Park, sika deer from the Netherlands roam under the cool shade of trees, approaching tourists from time to time to feed them. There are also some Malayan mouse deer from the rainforest area of Malaysia, which are the smallest ungulates in the world, but are very clever and witty, and are very popular with the locals. In addition, the management has also increased the enclosure area and raised the safety fence of the deer park. This is said to be so because sometimes the angry and angry deer will jump out of the enclosure area. Therefore, the management has enlarged the enclosure and raised the fence to discourage the deer from escaping from the enclosure. However, this KL Deer Park has changed the landscape after the Covid-19 pandemic hit. Visitors are no longer allowed to touch or pet, feed, and stand closer to deer. This is because, the management and guardians are worried that the diseased deer will be contagious to the deer and the management is also worried that if there are deer that are not used to humans, they will become violent and injure visitors. The construction of a small bridge over the park has been built for visitors to see the deer. Visitors are only allowed to use the footbridge provided to take pictures of deer passing over the 08. bridge.
IMPLEMENTATION OF TOURISM POLICY promoting and emphasizing the distinctiveness, advantages, and development opportunities of Malaysia's ecotourism sites in order to draw in ecotourism investors. establishing a protocol for ecotourism concessions that guarantees sustainable funding while also improving the quality of the visitor experience in national parks. consolidating research by reopening educational research centers in a few urban ecotourism destinations and national parks through collaborations with regional universities and NGOs. (DBKL, FRIM, MARDI and UPM) Marketing and promoting activity driven, eco-adventure activities to the gen Y, youth associations, school and university groups and urban families. Identifying measures of ecotourism activity including data on visitors and visitor management issues in protected areas. The following suggestions have been made for implementation by the Ministry of Tourism, Arts and Culture Malaysia (MoTAC) by the National Ecotourism Plan 2016–2025 (BusinessToday, 2021) but listed below are that suits the KL Deer Park: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.

recreation and relaxation Deer Park offers a tranquil setting where people may get away from the hectic daily life and reconnect with nature. It provides as a green haven for people and families to unwind and relax while enjoying outdoor activity like walking, running, or anything else. These pursuits encourage a healthy way of life and benefit both physical and mental health. exploitation of animals Deer may be exploited at deer parks that put financial success ahead of animal welfare. Animals may be maintained in subpar living arrangements, such as cramped pens or with insufficient access to healthy food, clean water, and medical treatment. infrastructure development Create the necessary infrastructure inside the park to meet tourist demands. To lessen disruptions to the deer and their natural habitat, this might include defined trails, observation places, and sitting arrangements. SOCIAL IMPACTS Positive impacts Control measure Negative impacts 11.
The management will supervise every year the surrounding area of the enclosure so that the enclosure is always safe for the deer to live in while they are there. In addition, the care of the iron fence is very important because there have been previous cases where deer escaped from the enclosure area. Therefore, the management had to raise the iron fence and add a ditch around the enclosure area to prevent deer from escaping the enclosure area. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT The management given by the guardians to the protected deer is very good. The surrounding area is taken care of by the management in terms of cleanliness, drainage, acreage, feeding, and deer care. The newly added drainage system in the area around the enclosure is very useful because it can prevent the deer from escaping from the enclosure and launch a wider water system. Outside the enclosure, the management team takes care of the environment with green and shady plants that cool the environment. Although the surrounding area, however, the enclosure area does not stand out with the green of the grass. The ventilation of the barn area is also less pleasant because the deer will throw feces everywhere and cause a foul smell. This can cause tourists to be less interested in the condition of deer.

ANALYSIS OF IMPACTS By Maha thir Abu Ha s s an K L D E E R P A R K Economy and social impacts The quality of life and environmental implications of the local community's living standard can be improved and offering job opportunities to the locals. Tourist destinations offer work options. Aside from that, direct and indirect taxes are sources of revenue for the government. Environmental impacts Protection of wildlife welfare and preservation of significant natural areas. Environmental quality improved, and the terrain is pleasant for tourists and other visitors.
