| Summary: | Illegal industries are a prominent challenge to the land administration as it contradicts with the existing system of land use and consequently has caused many adverse impacts on economic growth, social well-being, and the environment. The expansion of the industrial sector also raises problems such as traffic congestion and loss of income to the state government. Kampung Baru Sungai Buloh, Shah Alam is chosen as the study area due to the location wise and has a well-known image of a main furniture manufacturing centre of Selangor. Therefore, the research aims to assess the illegal industries within Kampung Baru Sungai Buloh and to propose recommendations on how to improve the conditions of the area in order for the area to functions properly as a promising industrial area in Selangor. Three objectives were formulated to achieve the aim: (i) To identify the current land use condition of the case study area in relation to illegal land use activities; (ii) To analyses the current road infrastructure capacity and level of service within the study area; and (iii) To propose appropriate recommendations to improve the road condition of the area. From the data collected from a site survey and secondary data, the majority of the industry in the study area is categorised as illegal due to their land category and planning permission are not compliance with the standard procedure. Also, their existence has led to a poor level of road service and encroachment on land reserve. The results from this research reinforce the need for appropriate recommendations, which can hold up the relevant authorities in providing better planning for Kampung Baru Sungai Buloh as an industrial area. |
