Abstract: This paper reviews the trend of township planning in Malaysia by featuring measures for the preparation of urban housing, and utilising the contemporary shifts in town ‘landscaping’. Learning from the Habitat III, a competitive township is essential for better and vibrant society. In Malaysia, the competitiveness, capital at present can be measured in policy implementation financially and transformative technologies support with any cutting-edge human capital strategy. The objectives of this paper are to investigate the strategic angle of sustainable urban development and to suggest better future urbanisation, township and housing in Malaysia. Detailed review was done through content analysis aiming at well-being and economic stability of its residents. The content in focus comprised housing integration, housing assistance, economic participation, and technology and design. It was found that Malaysia must be aware and compatible with such challenges to align with the national aspiration for harmonious living standards for future planning and housing development.
