Building Sustainable Future

The market for urban planning and designing in Malaysia is highly promising due to the continuous growth of the urbanization process, infrastructure development, and concern for sustainable urban development. Kuala Lumpur and Penang are some of the growing cities that are experiencing high growth rates in the construction of residential, commercial and infrastructure development. Malaysian government has particularly focused on the aspect of urbanization as one of the main pillars of development. Strategic plans are providing guidelines for the expansion of cities and improvements of infrastructure. These frameworks are intended to design active sustainable cities that will effectively accommodate the increasing population and at the same time, be environmentally friendly.

There is a growing desire for smart city technologies, and various plans for the implementation of digital solutions for efficient city management. Some of these are smart transport systems, digital government structures, and environmental friendly urban structures that enhance the use of energy and conservation of the environment. Besides modernization, the urban planning sector of Malaysia also highly values the culture and historical aspects. George Town and Malacca are heritage cities that have World Heritage status where urban planning is aimed at the conservation of the cultural and built structures while at the same time encouraging tourist activities and economic growth. The competition in the urban planning and designing of services in Malaysia is growing as local firms collaborate with international consultants. It is crucial to have this kind of partnership for solving multifaceted urban problems and providing Malaysian-specific solutions considering the country’s socio-economic and environmental conditions.
