| Summary: | This research employs a mixed methods approach to address the issue of illegal building renovation in Kulim, Kedah. The study's objectives are twofold: firstly, to evaluate community awareness levels on the topic; secondly, to identify existing strategies against illegal renovation. Qualitative interviews reveal a lack of awareness among residents due to unfamiliarity with regulations, leading to unintentional violations.
