Abstract
This paper examines how racial politics have contributed to the complex construction of identity in a multi-ethnic and multi-faith country. The rise of Malaysia as an economic power has been accompanied by a series of ambitious building projects that explore the representational power of architecture to express Malaysian identity. Recent projects provide a context for a discussion of Kampung Baru, a highly politicized neighborhood within the Kuala Lumpur city center that will soon undergo development.
