The government is considering to introduce the spatium concept in urban development for more efficient land management. Spatium entails creating overlapping development on existing ones utilising cavities and gaps both above and below ground to meet increasing demand for land. She also said the government is also looking into amending the Strata Titles Act to incorporate efforts towards urban rejuvenatio as a way of solving the issue of urban decay in old cities like Kuala Lumpur, Ipoh and George Town. While pursuing national development, she stressed that the aspect of preservation and conservation of national heritage land must not be forgotten. As such, she said national heritage areas such as the Perdana Lake Gardens in Kuala Lumpur, Tanjung Bungah and Batu Ferringhi in Pulau Pinang and the Portuguese Village in Melaka must be preserved for future generations. (Soundbite by Deputy Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Dr Wan Azizah Wan Ismail Subtitle: All parties must continue to study and draft new laws which are in line with the national development's aspiration. These include, introducing the spatium concept to utilise the air space for development. Introducing electronic documents for land ownership and start start a private lease scheme to open up more land that had development potential.)
