ada apa dengan jalan ampang?

"I remember an occasion way back in 1959 or 1960 when Datuk Thuraisingam was president of the Selangor Turf Club, I mentioned to him that this turf club was right in the heart of town and that one day he would find it hard to get to the races. What I had in mind was to use the race course for the government headquarters, and I offered him in exchange any land, any place he chose and the Government would build a new course. He however insisted on keeping it where it was."

"The Government demand for new offices continue to grow, so much so that they have to rent building space at exorbitant prices. It is therefore obvious that the Government must look ahead for a new site in the centre of the town for its new offices and what better site than the race course in Jalan Ampang."
