Tonight, we explore the kaki lima—the iconic five-foot walkways that line the streets of Kuala Lumpur and beyond. First, we hear from the authors of Kaki Lima Stories: Life in the Five-Foot Ways of Downtown Kuala Lumpur, who share insights into the cultural and social significance of these walkways through the lens of architecture. Later, the writer-photographer duo behind Kaki Lima: Pictures and A Story discuss their fictional tale, where the kaki lima is not just a setting but a character that narrates the story of an everchanging city.
