WHAT ARE THE
CHALLENGES???

6. CHALLENGES OF
POPULATION
GROWTH
POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS:
1. Use new and evolving information and communication technologies (ICT)
to enable data analysis and sharing between delivery channels.
2. Allow local authorities and service providers to monitor and control
resource delivery in real time and proactively address needs.
3. The popular term for a city that takes this approach is “smart city”.
4. But the experts and visionaries will tell you that creating a truly smart city
is about more than adopting ICT solutions; it’s also about…
HOW TO BEST DELIVER THE RESOURCES
AND SERVICE NEEDED TO ENSURE A
THRIVING POPULATION AND GOOD
ECONOMIC PERFORMANCE
SUSTAINABILITY AND
QUALITY OF LIFE

10. Conventional
City
Modern
City
Smart City
The alarming calls of urgency on environmental concerns towards
cities development has brought the shifts of paradigm from
conventional cities to an ideal concept of future city.
Thus, the most ideal concept for future city is:
SMART CITY!

11. Smart Cities is the
effective integration of
physical, digital and
human systems in the
built environment to
deliver a sustainable,
prosperous and
inclusive future for its
citizens and the
environment.
- British Standards Institution -

Cumulative
impact
• Increase public amenities’ efficiencies
• Decrease expenses (fuel, health etc)
• Better governance
• Healthier & happier citizens
• Properly distributed population
• Increase standard of living
• Decrease environmental impacts due to
human activities

14. PARADIGM SHIFT

15. Paradigm Shift in Environment Management –
ECO Development for FUTURE CITY
1. Introduction
2. Eco-Development
3. Evolutionary Paradigm

16. ECO-DEVELOPMENT
• We choose this paradigm because its long term
future process between relationship of
environmental management and development.
• Involves a larger, more discontinuous shift in
thinking and practice
• Aim to restructure relationship between society and
nature
• Re-orientate and upgrade level of integration of
social, ecological and economic concerns in planning

17. ECO-DEVELOPMENT HUMAN- NATURE RELATIONSHIP
• Eco-centric
MAIN THEME
• Generative Restructuring
Ecologies economy & social system sophisticated
symbiosis
DOMINANT IMPERATIVE
• Co-developing Human and Nature
• Redefine Security

18. ECO-DEVELOPMENT
PREVALENT PROPERTY REGIMES
• GCL (global common law) and Local Common &
Private Property regimes for intra/inter-generational
• Equity and Stewardship
FUNDAMENTAL FLAWS
• May generate false security
• Magnitude of changes require new consciousness

19. ECO-DEVELOPMENT DOMINANT THREAT
• Ecological uncertainty Global Change
ANALYTICAL MODELLING AND PLANNING
STRATEGIES
• Ecological Economics
• Biophysical-Economic Open system Dynamics
• Socio-Technical and Ecosystem Process Design
• Integration of Social, Economic & Ecological Criteria for Technology
• Trade and Capital Flow regulation based on Community Goals and
Management
• Equity in Land distribution
• Geophysiology

20. EVOLUTIONARY PARADIGM

22. Pursuing Green Growth For Sustainability

Green growth
Competitive cities
Inclusiveness society
Consumption & Production (SCP)
Digital nation

23. Future Cities Low Carbon Development (LCD) Concept:
Energy efficiency (Renewable energy usage)
Socio-economic & biodiversity’s sustainability
Policy and institutional framework for green growth
“The government will move away from a “grow first, clean-up later” development model to a resilient,
low-carbon, resource-efficient and socially inclusive in the 11th Malaysia Plan.” (New Straits Times,
2015)

24. 4 Priority Areas for LCD in Future Cities –
Based on 11th MP
• Green building
• Energy & water saving
• Carbon emission
reduction
• Green vehicle
• Water treatment
• Solid waste
management
• Biomass
• Solar PV
• Mini Hydro
• Biogas Energy

R&D
•Technology
efficiency’s
development
•Research/evidence-
based problem solving

28. Stakeholders – Public
Public
•Volunteering Services
•Active player on low carbon practices
•Feedbacks on possible means

29. Challenges
• Financial sources for technology introduction
• Public acceptance
• Unsynchronized cycles of planning, decision-making &
investment
• Traditional governance & management culture
• Lack of technical expertise & knowledge
• Traditional investors & beneficiaries in the sector vs.
new actors & beneficiaries

30. Ways Forward:
• Effective implementation of low carbon measures at city
level needs multi disciplinary professional input and
multi stakeholders and buy in.
• Low carbon measures has to relate to local co benefits
(safety, income generation or increase in property value,
health improvement, better air quality, saving from
commuting, stronger community engagement and
interaction)

40. VALUE CHAIN CONCEPT

42. Green Transportation –
Lessons from Vienna:
Aims:
Saving time, money, increase health rate and making the
city a fun place to live.
Method:
1. Upgrading public transports and facilities
2. Subsidizing public transports fare (makes owning
car rather expensive)
3. Educating public to know the importance of
sustainability

43. Instruments to Influence and Improve
Public Transport User Choices
Institutions and
Planning Regulations
Fiscal Policy and
Pricing
Technology and
Infrastructure
High-level policy
integration
Fuel quality
standards
Taxes and
subsidies
Greener modes of
transport
Spatial planning
Vehicle technical
standards
Explicit pricing of
externalities
Infrastructure
network and
connectivity
Strategic transport
planning
Enforcement
Internalizing
externalities
Advanced vehicle
technologies

44. The suitable Policy for the Environment by
businesses or corporation in their Value Chain of
Public Transportation???
FISCAL POLICY
Fiscal policy is the means by which a government adjusts its spending levels and tax rates to
monitor and influence a nation's economy.

45. Proposed Public Transportation
Policy Framework
A. Integrate Environmental Concerns into Transport Policy
B. Achieve and Maintain a Greener Vehicle Fleet
C. Support Commercial Development of Intercity
Passenger Transport Services
D. Transform Public Buses and Taxis into Modern Urban
Transport Modes
E. Support Sustainable Development of Urban Transport

46. Measures proposed in the above policy
framework can be prioritized based on
urgency and sequencing.
Priority actions can be divided into:
1.Short-term (1st – 5th year)
2.Medium-term (6th – 10th year)
3.Longer-term (11th year onwards)

47. TERMS KEY OBJECTIVES
Short-Term
(1st – 5th year)
Institutional Capacity
and Preparatory Tasks
Strengthen the institutions and policies at national and
municipal level
Carry out preparatory work and studies for medium-
term actions
Medium-Term
(6th – 10th
year)
Enforcement, Market
Reforms, and
Infrastructure
Implement the improved regulatory framework
Promote market competition through key subsector
reforms
Develop infrastructure for lasting transformation
Long-Term
(11th year and
after)
Transformation Transform mobility using advanced technologies
Shape green mobility patterns
PROPOSED ACTION PLAN FOR
GREEN PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION @ FUTURE CITY:

48. Conclusion
• In near future, more people will travel to cities in the
hope of better future. How the urbanization can be
accommodated?
• Most of the cities will have constraints with the
geographical condition. The answer is vertical structure.
• In order to get the achievable idea of future cities,
harmonized relationship between Economy, Social &
Environment must co exist.
Economy Social Environment

49. Lastly, all effort to enhance the quality of the
environment will go to the drainage if the
community is not well informed of the goodness of
the concept.
Thus, embracing sustainable development in future
city is the answer!
