Children's Playground at Jalan Ara 7/5B.

Fyi, Playground cleanliness falls directly under MBPJ (The landscape dept.)

The team that you see sweeping leaves and cleaning the drains fall under a different team ( KDEB ; MBPJ's contractor)  They don't maintain playground cleanliness 🤷

I've made a complaint to MBPJ regarding this and they have looked into it and taken action. 

As for the playground amenities, MBPJ will be looking into cleaning up the items there. (Swing/slide, etc) A contractor is the the midst of being engaged by MBPJ to do this.
