Putrajaya.community.com.my is the most ideal one stop resource on anything about the city of Putrajaya. The highly advanced and planned city, which is located at the southern areas of Malaysian capital Kuala Lumpur is the main administrative city of the country where there are many government ministries of which have housed their offices here. Putrajaya is a Federal Territory, making it the third area to be such after Kuala Lumpur and Labuan.
Putrajaya was envisioned, together with IT (Information Technology) city Cyberjaya by the former prime minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad as part of the Vision 2020 effort in turning Malaysia into a fully industrialized country.Putrajaya, in its own has so far carved its own identity in many ways. While it is still considered as a ‘new’ city, the administrative center have brought about an exodus of people from all walks of life here as they take up positions in the government ministries.
This is largely due to the fact that for anyone working with the ministry, a housing facility is usually provided. But a lot of criticism has since emerged over the lack of other basic infrastructure like public transport and bus services for tourists and visitors to the city. That said, you are most encouraged to visit Putrajaya on self drive as it would be way more convenient than relying on the shuttle services here.
