Popis: Malaysia had initiated the effort of conserving heritage buildings just approximately 30 to 40 years ago. The awareness is slowly increasing; though it is rather slow. Extra efforts on conserving these buildings can bring immense benefits to the country especially for future generation. However, whether those buildings are important to be conserved is always a question asked by many. Is Malaysian aware on the withstanding of those buildings at present, and is it important to them? This paper aims to review Malaysian public's perception on heritage buildings conservation besides identifying their physical accessibility to those buildings in Kuala Lumpur.
