Abstract
The unmanaged properties in Kampong Bharu, with over 60 billion immovable estates classified as frozen, are a pressing concern. Despite numerous proposed solutions, the current legal framework remains insufficient, and the challenge of addressing these unmanaged estates persists. Additionally, development planning in this area has been stalled with no resolution in sight up to the present day. This study analyses the issues and current framework in the administration and development of non-administered real estate in Kampong Bharu through a qualitative and descriptive cross-sectional analysis of governing statutes, reported cases, semi-structured interviews, surveys, and data from the respective administrative bodies. Several issues were identified, including the presence of multiple administrative bodies, uncertainty about the status of Malay Reservation Land, problems arising from multiple deaths, and challenges in enforcing the Land Acquisition Act 1960, highlighting the urgent need for more efficient legal administration and dispensation of justice.
