Abstract

The regions in Malaysia are facing rapid changes due to globalisation. These changes callfor a new approach in local and regional planning in the country, an approach that requires the ability to continuously monitor and even predict the dynamics of each region. Previous regional plans thatfocus on end-states as opposed to processes have been deemed not to address these changes. A test case for such a need is the Klang Valley Region. The development of the Klang Valley Regional Planning Support System (KV-RPSS) is a move towards addressing this issue. Using technology adapted to local needs, the focus of this planning support system is to assist federal level regional planners to work with local authorities in identifying and predicting urban changes.
