CONCEPT
INTRODUCTION
The bright future of Kuah town should be closely linked to good planning and comprehensiveness. One of the strengths that creates value is versatile. Downtown with versatile features such as local hub business and natural beauty tend to be much more appreciated by residents (and visitors) than the more predictable city center. When it comes to downtown, habits and personalities can translate into a strong sense of community. The gravy town needs to look out, beyond the scope. Development planning not only has to look at current development scenarios and trends in Malaysia, but it also has to look at good practices and new technologies being implemented in other countries, for example, ideas or benchmarks to be more competitive and move forward.
VISION : Kuah as a safe haven and universal town by 2035.
GOAL :To make Kuah City a world-class tourist destination with high quality of life and attractive city activities.

The pedestrian walk is a basic pedestrian facility. The pedestrian path allows pedestrians to enter the commercial and the jetty. They also provide traffic safety. High level connectivity is required for efficient pedestrian networks. The pedestrian system should provide a comfortable place for walking. Pedestrian system should be designed and maintained to promote walking and include elements that create a Convenient walking environment, such as trees, pedestrian-scale street lights, supports traffic, garbage, seating, and pedestrian environments. In urban areas, always provides pedestrian access. With jetty to farm, people can travel safely, conveniently and comfortably on foot.

In addition, bio engineering and green energy need to grow rapidly in the field in areas that incorporate biological and physical science principles and use them to solve agricultural and environmental problems. They also manage and conserve land, water, air, energy, and other agricultural resources.

The next strategy is to provide parks and recreation. This area is interesting because people want something new and out of town. At the Kuah hill, this will always be an unforgettable, refreshing and enriching experience. When the sun rises, it will catch a glimpse of sunshine on sunny days or fog like cotton floating in the air on cooler days and At dusk, time can be seen around the Brush Area from the view of Kuah Hill, providing a magical background in the night sky. This is not the only new experience for tourism, it can also help the area become a waste.

In addition, provide ecotourism in the hotel / resort area by serving nature in nature without damaging it or using habitat. This is a form of tourism focused on fragile, pristine, and uninterrupted natural areas, intended as low-impact and often small-scale alternatives to standard commercial mass tourism. This is a road trip undertaken to natural areas, preserves the environment, and enhances the well-being of the locals. The purpose is to educate travelers, provide funds for ecological conservation, directly benefit economic development and political empowerment of the community, or to foster respect for different cultures and human rights.

Iskandar Puteri Malaysia best
practices. It is an important region both economically and geographically. The
region's Comprehensive Development Plan (CDP) requires the cooperation,
support, active participation, commitment and ongoing involvement of many
agencies, stakeholders and players at all levels. These include federal, state
and local governments, agencies, business communities, local leaders and
communities, and global industry players. Some initial steps blueprints and new
initiatives such as the Low Carbon Society, human capital and safety and
security. Here, we keep you from the Circle of Sustainability, a holistic and
resilient ecosystem supported by non-core that encompasses wealth creation,
wealth sharing involvement, and low resource and carbon optimization in one
continuous cycle. We want to ensure that our people living in this fast-growing
region get stable and satisfactory results. Although our talents are highly
skilled, we are able to produce higher productivity values in the nine
sectors promoted.

DETAIL DESIGN LAYOUT

The
whole new development proposal will focus on making Kuah City a world-class
tourist destination with high quality of life and attractive city activities.
So there is a new development like Soho with 11.37 acres and 13.38 acres for a
shop. The strategic location of the Mall provides easy access to shoppers
around Kuah Town area. In addition, there is also a recreational area of
18.62 acres that will give new life to Pekan Kuah to attract attention with
new activities and get carbon, this is because Pekan Kuah is a major town in
Langkawi. Proposed method submitted by several Areas that need to be done such
as Hotel area of 97.96 acres and Agricultural area of 67.06 acres.
Agricultural areas are being redeveloped to introduce green technology and
bioengenering that can use carbon and protect the environment. Finally, the
area maintained in the residential area of 40.69 acres of detached village.
This area is maintained to show the tradition in the village for the outdoors.
With this, development reform, building conservation and permanent development
areas can make Kuah as the main destination chosen to visit and the well-being
of the people of the gravy is maintained and more advanced.
COMMERCIAL
Figure 20: Soho Detail Layout
Figure 21: Shop House Detail Layout
The proposed shopping center is a shop house at 13.38 near the Jetty terminal area. This shop house is proposed to Promote local products such as food and handicrafts made by the villagers. Indirectly can reduce unemployment among the residents of Pekan Kuah. In addition, the new development area developed Soho with an area of 11.37 acres. The mall also has a city and unique design in addition to providing organized parking. Some well-known brands include Jaya Grocer, Harvey Norman, MBO and Blue Ice-Skating Rink. The mall will serve as a catalyst for development in the area as a commercial center that meets the needs of the middle and upper class lifestyle. In addition, the mall will be the catalyst for further expansion as the community loves shopping centers near their homes. Therefore, this park pocket is recommended around the commercial area. The proposed Pocket park is 5,797 acre. Planning to Provide successful pocket parks and recreational places for urban residents is increasingly challenging due to the limited park space available in urban areas. Due to declining areas and limited time, the physical and recreational needs of urban youth are often not met and most people suffer from mental fatigue, especially those living in urban areas. Mental fatigue is a condition characterized by excessive mental fatigue that can potentially cause serious problems including decreased productivity, poor work performance and impaired physical function. It is recommended to relax or look at the green space during micro rest as it will offer a recovery experience for the recovery process.

In addition, the recreational park is provided to excite the city and to enjoy the unique atmosphere of the city as we know it and become environmentally friendly. At the Kuah hill, it will always be an unforgettable, refreshing and enriching experience. As the sun rises, the sun glows at sunny days or fog like cotton floating in the air on cooler days, and at dusk, time can be seen around the graveyard area of Bukit Kuah, providing a magical background in the sky night. This is not just a new experience for tourism, it is being eliminated, with the presence of this rejuvenation park helping to make this area a community of waste users who do not exist.
