269:. Bukit Kiara has often been described as one of the last remaining 'green lungs' of Kuala Lumpur, boasting many jungle trails, pristine rivers and streams and abundant native wildlife. Despite rapid housing and commercial development in neighbouring Mont Kiara, Bukit Kiara is still known as a natural oasis away from the hustle and bustle of Kuala Lumpur.
272:
Ongoing developments on several tracts of land in Bukit Kiara have met with protests from several non-governmental organisations (NGOs), citing the ongoing commitment from various government departments and ministers to have the park gazetted.

In 2012, the
National Landscape Department erected a 4m fence around one of the lots to demarcate the park and separate it from Berjaya Corporation's Bukit Kiara Equestrian Club. This followed a High Court ruling declaring City Hall had entered into a lease agreement with the club over 62.57 acres
304:
Of the original 1,534 acre estate, only about 400 acres is left for public use. The rest has been sold off or acquired over the years by the likes of KL Golf and

While the plan remained intact until 1987, along the way, the development of private sector recreation clubs and high-end residential and mixed development projects violated the purpose of the government's acquisition in 1976.
320:"Inside the fence" there is a small network of tarmac trails painted red and yellow and with poorly designed gutters that funnel the heavy rains into the middle of the road instead of into the drains.
284:
Subsequently, some 200 acres was marked public institutional land to house the
National Institute of Public Administration (Intan), National Science Centre and the Securities Commission, among others.
