The last remaining piece of unmarked land in USJ, situated between the TNB power lines and USJ3C along Persiaran Setia, will be developed into an Urban Forest.

While private developers were eying the land (size about 5 acres) for various commercial development, MPSJ & JKP Zone 3 was determined to see it preserved as recreational area for the benefit of Subang Jaya & USJ residents. Toying with the idea of an Organic Eco Farm, center for some cultural activities, and a green lung, the development of this recreational center is moving ahead this November with the first phase of creating an urban forest.

Since then, Rotary Club of USJ has come forth to volunteer to help do the tree planting, and so on 11th November 2011 (11/11/11), JKP3, MPSJ & Rotary Club of USJ will be planting 1111 (yes, one thousand one hundred and eleven trees) at the site.

MPSJ is in the midst of preparing the trees to be planted, as well as the necessary earth works as you read this now. For Phase one, besides planting the trees, there will be an earth trail thru the “forest”.

All residents are invited to be there on Friday morning to take part in this historical development and also plant their own tree.

Make a date. Be there....

Date: 11-Nov-2011 (Friday)
Time: 8:00am - 12noon. Light breakfast will be served.
