description This study was conducted to determine the critical challenges faced by Kuala Lumpur City Hall (KLCH) in improving sustainable guidance to overcome flash floods. The existing guidelines of flash flood control are only part of the Department of Irrigation and Drainage (DID) guidelines and lack for the flash flood prevention measures. There are also new challenges that are not taken into account in the existing approaches. This study aims to identify the improvising elements to planning guide in order to overcome the problem of flash floods in Kuala Lumpur. This study managed a set of questionnaires which intended for 67 respondents consisting of individuals in the construction industry from various disciplines. The data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics in the form of frequency and percentage. The results showed that 70.2% of the respondents agreed that the development order planning guidelines and improvements should be reviewed and 68.8% of respondents also agreed that there is the lack of clear guidelines used for rapid urban development which strongly considered the risk of flash floods. In conclusion, this paper proposed the improvise elements to overcome the flash flood problems. Among the primary method is the establishment of multidisciplinary stakeholders in the development direction planning. The proposed planning team should involve with civil and structural engineers, mechanical and electrical engineers, architects and experts in various disciplines. With views from different angles, a decision can be reached well and collectively. It is hoped that this study can provide a fresh perspective in planning elements and propose as an improvement on existing guideline.
