After losing part of land to public road, Taman Desa house owners finally get RM6m compensation from DBKL

KUALA LUMPUR, 25 Disember — Pemilik 14 lot rumah berbata api di Taman Desa di sini telah menerima RM6 juta daripada DBKL sebagai ganti rugi atas se bahagian tanah mereka yang telah digunakan bagi pembinaan Jalan Taman Bukit Desa.

reported yesterday.

The reimbursement comes after a prolonged argument about the land used to construct the public road, which drew attention in 2022 when Lim blocked a section of the road as an act of protest.

Saya beranggapan bahawa urusan ini telah diputuskan dengan segera.

"Although I would have preferred to regain my land, this compensation was the only feasible option," he was quoted as saying.

The matter began with a dispute over 21 parcels of land on Jalan Taman Bukit Desa, where a calculation error by a housing developer resulted in Lim losing 1,009sq ft of his property.

After legal proceedings, Kuala Lumpur City Hall approved the compensation payment and confirmed the land acquisition process under the 1960 Land Acquisition Act.
