Putrajaya as a Smart City
Leading Malaysia’s Urban Innovation and Sustainability
Putrajaya, Malaysia’s federal administrative capital, was envisioned not only as a Garden City but also as an Intelligent City. While its green infrastructure has flourished—with 38% of its land dedicated to parks and open spaces—the city is now accelerating its transformation into a Smart and Green City by 2025.
This transformation is driven by the Putrajaya Smart City Blueprint, a comprehensive strategic document that outlines the city’s vision, objectives, and actionable initiatives to enhance livability, sustainability, and digital innovation. The blueprint aligns with national development policies and global frameworks such as the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the New Urban Agenda (NUA).
