11、 decision making to reduce potentially unpopular or questionable decisions (Wang, 2001). Thus, in September 2007 the Town and Country Planning (Amendment) Act 2007 [Act A1312] was again amended in which to confer the

12、executive authority on the Federal Government over certain matters in relation to the control and regulation of town and country planning in Peninsular Malaysia. The Town and Country Planning Act 1976 (Act 172) and it

13、s subsequent amendments stated the provision of public participation in Sections 9 (1, 2 and 3), 12A, 13, 14 and 15. This ensures that public participation is mandatory in the formulation of development plans in the co

14、untry. 2.2. The concept of planning system in Malaysia Currently, in Malaysia community involvement is accepted as a crucial stage in planning especially the preparation plan. This is to ensure that the people are invo

15、lved and have the right to be informed in planning their areas. As such, public participation is a vital factor to ensure that the local issues and the needs of the local people are being addressed. Conventionally, par

19、ilable for public inspection. Notification to the public is done through local newspapers. The public is given no less than one month from the date of notice to review and can be extended upon request from the stakehol

20、ders. As for the local plans and special area plan the same procedure applies as stated in section 13 of the Act 172. There is an additional provision introduced by the amendment of Act 172 in 2001 (Act A1129), which r

21、equires publicity has to be given to a proposed plan even before its preparation. Section 12A stated that publicity should include the objectives, the purpose and matters in the proposed plan of a local plan or special

22、 area plan. The amendment is very vital because it allows public participation from the early stage of plan preparation. The need for public participation in planning is sufficiently provided for by the Act 172 and its
