  • caption: The waterdrainage provided by the government is calculated on the water discharge of the street with extra buffer runoff of private property. However people getting more lazy and don't like spending time gardening. So they put big surfaces of pavement in their garden. Result: increase of water runoff to the drainage system.

  • The city center reconstruction project has undergone a change from a large-scale redevelopment and non-participatory plan to a stockholder sharing and market oriented commercial one. These transitional plans reveal a non-participatory approach to the city center reconstruction. For instance, property owners in the area have been ignored during this process. If this trend continues, the chances of implementing the plan in the long run would be limited
