1 Gazebos and other Arab-themed decoration at the Arab Square in Bukit Bintang will be removed once Hap Seng Land Sdn Bhd adopts the park. The park will then feature more plants, benches and a pathway. (Inset): At night, homeless and foreign workers sleep at Arab Square. 2 Flashback of StarMetro’s report on the issue yesterday.

CITY Hall will not build anymore gazebos along walkways and pocket parks until the vagrant issue is solved.

Kuala Lumpur mayor Tan Sri Ahmad Phesal Talib said they have learnt from the mistake made at Ain Arabia or Arab Square in Bukit Bintang, where beautiful gazebos were abused by vagrants who made them their “homes”.
