Bandar Tasik Selatan (BTS) is a township in Kuala Lumpur, it was established in 1991

BTS lies under Bandar Tun Razakparliamentary constituency, but under DewanBandaraya Kuala Lumpur, BTS lies under Sungai Besi

More people lives here due to the rapid development and house price is still affordable

Since 1980, the city has experienced a population increase of 77 %.

Traffics continues to increase, and busy junctions, narrow city streets, and heavy bus and lorry traffics can all create zones with poor air quality

But, BTS that have reserved forest as belongs to Sungai Besi Military Camp, can neutralize the air pollution, as well as it has no big impact to residences

Based on the results, BTS (under Cheras) have a good air quality compared with other regions at Kuala Lumpur and Putrajaya

Ecological services provided by natural and diverse habitats help regulate temperature, absorb pollution, control pests and maintain soil fertility.

Sungai Kerayong delineates the northern boundary of the zone while the Kuala Lumpur - Seremban Highway forms the western boundary. The eastern and southern edges of the zone are formed by the boundary of the City

The terrain is generally hilly and incised by the flood plain of Sungai Kerayong. Bukit Sungai Besi, the highest hill in Kuala Lumpur, dominates the southern part of the zone.

The zone has an established residential base. Industry is well established throughout the zone and generally consolidated into eight industrial areas. Two large-scale institutions within the zone are the training college and school complexes in Bandar Tun Razak and the Sungai Besi Military Camp in south of the zone.

Most rubbish will be dumped into the dustbin

Recycle bin is rarely to be found around BTS, if found, its function is already abused

Except for housing area that have their own recycle bin, mostly there will be lorries that will moves around my hometown to buy recyclable materials like tin, glass, steel and old papers

The collected materials will be sent to the recycle factories

A city’s ecological footprint measures the environmental impact of its population’s lifestyle, consumption habits and energy use.

Housing and food and drink consumption have the biggest influence, but transport, pets and consumer items such as clothing are also important. No improvements in the energy efficiency of housing and transport.

Bandar Tasik Selatan station serves as both a stop and interchange for KTM Komuter, AmpangLine, and the Express Rail Link's KLIA Transit trains, and Rapid KL buses.

The station is accessible via Kuala Lumpur Middle Ring Road 2 (MRR2) from the southeast, and, indirectly, the Sungai Besi Expressway from the west. The Bandar Tasik Selatan interchange is effectively an intermodal transportation hub.

Facilities for the purchase and reloading of Touch 'n Go cards are also provided in the interchange.

Bandar Tasik Selatan have a green space in every housing area. They keep to plant the trees along the road.

Behind Sungai Besi Military Camp, there has a hill (Bukit Besi) that be a military camp. That place is surrounding by the trees and also the place to hiking and school student’s training

Temperature at Bandar Tasik Selatan has in average condition

Bandar Tasik Selatan have many food place. Most of them are Thai Cuisine and Malay Food

Along main street (Jalan Tasik Selatan 20), there are many food stall that sell such as fried bananas, fruit, and mini restaurant

Even though along main street we will get the variety of menu, their existence cause the problems to the community◦ Permit to work◦ No more space to park the cars

Bandar Tasik Selatan’s economy based on commerce. Too many shops and stalls prove the position on my hometown economy base

Economic base- in technology, manufacturing and design will increase their economic activity. Industrial area available and more immigrants working in this industry.

Due to Bandar Tasik Selatan is located in city areas, the majority of the population in Bandar Tasik Selatan are worked at office, police station, labour and open the shops.

However, there are also other employment like teacher, businessman, contractor and others. But in some area the major employment of them are police and soldier based on the location of Bandar Tasik Selatan between military camp and police area

Employment-new supermarket and more shops open offers more employment.
