Discovering the relationship between the accessibility and COVID 19 using Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) case study Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur

People are more likely to meet and connect when there is a high concentration of amenities within easy travelling distance. In this way, we argue that accessibility is a proxy for various characteristics associated with social interaction and that environments with greater accessibility promote grea...
