This compilation of 160 articles, written across a period of 19 years, focuses on 5 major issues of concern to all Malaysians - the environment, land development, housing, local government and planning. It is, in essence, a portrait of how we have dealt with the myriad issues of "sustainable development", or if prefer the current jargon, "smart growth". It serves as a contemporary record of how we (for the most part) had continued to abuse the fragile environment and mismanage our precious resources.
