KUALA LUMPUR: PEOPLE who frequent the Lembah Kiara Recreational Park in Taman Tun Dr Ismail are unhappy with the upgrading exercise by the National Landscape Department (JLN).

The development which started in August last year is causing many changes in the natural environment of the park.

A jogger who wants to be known as Lim said that he is not happy with the current condition of the park.

"I was told the budget allocated for this park is about RM7 million.

"With such a huge amount allocated for upgrading the park, why aren't they fixing the faulty suspension bridge on the hill side of the park before proceeding with other developments around the park?"

He said that joggers are ignoring the fact that the bridge is faulty and are still using it.

"Joggers are at risk of an accident every time they cross the bridge to finish their round."

Peter Goh, 68, said that the JLN should build more toilets at the park.

"Due to the size of the park, I believe that more toilets should be built to cater to the needs of the park users.
