Providing affordable housing for the masses,plays a major role in the well-being of the population,contributing to the physical and mental health,education,employment,security and also the countrys political certainties or uncertainties.In Malaysia,the categories and tier percentages of the population have been divided into three income groups;they are the T20 (top),M40 (middle) and B40 (bottom) groups.Many public and private housings have been built to cater to each income group,but they are unable to address many escalating social and living issues.Currently,the Greater Kuala Lumpur region,as the research area in this research,has a population of 8.3 million.It is projected by the year 2050;the population will reach 10.7 million.Through this paper,a new future township has been proposed,whereby various shared facilities and amenities have been incorporated as to avoid the growth of potential social problems.By analysing these issues,a future sustainable township has been formulated based on the three key elements,which are live,work,play and learn environment,green area and connectivity.It is foreseeable that the demands of such township are imperative in the nation building towards achieving Malaysias goal of attaining high-income economy and a modelled developed nation status soon,graduating from being a developing nation for decades.
