| Summary: | In Malaysia, squats can be found in various locations such as roadside, hilly
areas, and city outskirts. Kampong Railway is a long established squatter settlement
in Kuala Lumpur. The formation of Kampong Railway began from the construction of
railway tracks at the end year 1800. This paperwork discusses the social economic
profile of Kampong Railway's community. The surroundings of the squats have been
studied and 17 respondents have been interviewed to obtain data relating to the
livelihood of the Kampong Railway residents in Kuala Lumpur. Qualitative and
quantitative methods have been applied to analyze the acquired data. The findings
demonstrate that residents of Kampong Railway carry strong sentimental values on
their settlement therefore many refuse to leave the squats. Apart from that, this
research has identified the reasons conceived by the residents as the factors that
prevent developments in the area therefore preventing the abolishment of squatter
settlements in Kuala Lumpur. This study includes the proposals of several policies
that can be used to achieve zero squats. The government 's mission of zero squats is a
big challenge and there are many efforts that still need to be accomplished in order to
achieve this goal |
