====== Ringkasan Media: Bukit Dinding ======

KUALA LUMPUR, XX (Bernama) -- Bukit Dinding yang terletak di Wangsa Maju di sini mungkin tidak segah seperti Bukit Malawati di Kuala Selangor atau Bukit Chandu di Singapura yang menjadi lokasi pertahanan terakhir Leftenan Muda Adnan Saidi.

Hakikatnya bukit yang berkeluasan kira-kira 348 ekar (141 hektar) itu pernah menjadi ‘saksi’ tinggalan sejarah lama iaitu lokasi sejarah Perang Klang sekitar 1870-an dan kawasan sekitarnya aktif dengan kegiatan perlombongan timah dan ladang getah.

Malah, filem Do Re Mi dikatakan turut menggunakan latar belakang Bukit Dinding ketika , Allahyarham Tan Sri P Ramlee, Allahyarham A R Tompel dan Allahyarham Ibrahim Din menyanyikan lagu filem itu sambil berjalan kaki.

Di sebalik cerita itu, Bukit Dinding yang masih hijau dan popular sebagai lokasi rekreasi utama warga kota turut mempunyai khazanah geologi iaitu batuan Dinding Syis (eng:Dinding Schist), batuan tertua di ibu negara yang berusia sekitar 479 juta tahun melangkaui usia formasi batu kapur dan syis Hawthornden.

Pensyarah yang mengkaji geologi bukit tersebut, Prof Madya Dr Mustafa Kamal Abdul Aziz Mustafa Kamal berkata Dinding Syis yang turut diakui pengkaji sejak zaman penjajah adalah batu metamorfik berbutir yang terdiri daripada beberapa jenis batuan berbeza dan dicirikan oleh beberapa struktur ketakselanjaran, dengan ketebalan dianggarkan 3,000 m ke dalam.

====== Butiran Lanjut ======

Bukit Dinding ialah bukit berhutan setinggi 291m (menurut Google Earth 2022: 302m) di Kuala Lumpur, terletak di antara Setiawangsa dan Wangsa Maju. Bagi penduduk setempat, ianya dianggap kawasan hijau terakhir di situ. Lokasinya berdekatan dengan Highland Tower (di sebelah timurnya, yang telah runtuh pada 11 Disember 1993) dan Bukit Antarabangsa, yang merupakan sebahagian daripada Banjaran Titiwangsa.

===== Kronologi Sejarah (Sumber Kolonial) =====

==== 1840-1850-an: Kawasan Perlombongan Gonggang ====

Sekitar 1840-1850-an, kawasan lembangan Sungai Bunus (anak Sungai Klang) di barat daya Bukit Dinding yang dikenali sebagai "Gonggang" (sekitar Setapak kini) adalah antara pusat perlombongan bijih timah, selain sepanjang Sungai Gombak dan Sungai Klang.[[[media-bukitdinding#anperlombongan_di_gonggang|1]]] Sebelumnya, ia didiami warga peribumi Temuan.

==== 1867-1874: Lokasi Perang Klang ====

Kawasan sekitar Bukit Dinding, termasuk Ulu Gonggang (hulu Sungai Bunus) di sebelah barat, dan lembah Sungai Gisir di sebelah utara, menjadi antara lokasi Perang Klang (1867-1874).[[[media-bukitdinding#lokasi_perang_klang1|2]]]
 
==== 1880-an: Pentadbiran Kolonial British ====

Menjelang zaman kolonial British sekitar 1880-an, kawasan perlombongan di Gonggang telah berkembang sehingga ke hulu Sungai Bunus di sebelah barat laut Bukit Dinding, iaitu di sekitar Wangsa Maju kini.[[[media-bukitdinding#anpermulaan_era_kolonial|3]]]

==== 1889: Pembukaan Hawthornden Estate ====

Pada Oktober 1888, Ladang “Ulu Gonggang” di Batu 5 Jalan Pahang Kuala Lumpur (di penghujung sebelah utara pusat perlombongan Gonggang) telah dibuka oleh J. A. Toynbee, bekas pengurus ladang Weld's Hill kepunyaan syarikat Messrs. Hill and Rathborne yang sedang giat membuka ladang-ladang kopi secara besar-besaran di kawasan sekitar itu. 
Ladang ini dinamakan sebagai Ladang Hawthornden.[[[media-bukitdinding#pembukaan_ladang_hawthornden|4]]] Ia berkembang ke timur/tenggara bersama Ladang Lincoln dan Aberscross, sehingga merangkumi hampir keseluruhan kawasan Bukit Dinding.[[[media-bukitdinding#perkembangan_ladang_hawthornden|5]]] 

==== 1900-1920: Ladang-Ladang Getah ====

Sekitar tahun 1903-1906, Hawthornden Estate telah diambil alih oleh Loke Yew, dan diusahakan dengan lombong dan ladang getah.[[[media-bukitdinding#lombong_dan_ladang_loke_yew|6]]] Sekitar tahun 1920, Gonggang Estate dibuka di sekitar Sungai Peran (anak Sungai Bunus), di sebelah selatan Bukit Dinding.[[[media-bukitdinding#angonggang_estate|7]]] 

==== 1965-09-04: Ladang Hawthornden Mulai Dimajukan ====

Pada 4 September 1965, kerajaan persekutuan telah mengumumkan perancangan sebuah perbandaran baru di Ladang Wardieburn, termasuk sebahagian kecil Ladang Hawthornden. Kemungkinan kawasan tersebut di sekitar Taman Bunga Raya kini.[[[media-bukitdinding#ladang_hawthornden_mulai_dimajukan1|8]]]
 
==== 1983-12-09: Bandar Baru Ladang Hawthornden: Wangsa Maju ====

Pada 9 Disember 1983, Pelan Induk untuk kawasan ini, dikenali sebagai Projek Pusat Pertumbuhan Bandar Baru Ladang Hawthornden, telah diluluskan. Sejak itu, Hawthornden Estate di sebelah barat Bukit Dinding mula dibangunkan menjadi Wangsa Maju, seksyen demi seksyen, iaitu Seksyen 1 (apartmen kos rendah), Seksyen 2 hingga 4 (apartmen kos sederhana), dan Seksyen 5 (rumah teres, apartmen dan kondominium).[[[media-bukitdinding#bandar_baru_ladang_hawthornden|9]]]
 
==== 1983-1995: Setiawangsa ====

Sepanjang tahun 1983-1995, kawasan Gonggang Estate di sebelah selatan Bukit Dinding mula dibangunkan oleh syarikat Island & Peninsular (I&P) Group Sdn Bhd, kemudiannya dikenali sebagai “Taman Setiawangsa”. Peringkat terakhir pembangunan ini ialah Puncak Setiawangsa, dan disiapkan pada tahun 1995.[[[media-bukitdinding#gonggang_estate_menjadi_setiawangsa|10]]]

===== Pemeliharaan Bukit Dinding Dari Sudut Sejarah =====

Bagi kawasan bandar yang pesat membangun seperti Kuala Lumpur dan Lembah Klang, hampir keseluruhan kawasan yang tidak diwartakan sebagai hutan simpan, warisan, atau rizab, telah dan terus-menerus dibangunkan mengikut peredaran zaman moden. Kesannya, banyak tinggalan sejarah zaman kolonial (apatah lagi sebelum itu) telah musnah dan lenyap sama sekali, dan tidak dapat dikaji lagi, malah banyak yang telah pun dilupakan. Maklumat yang ada hanyalah catatan-catatan pentadbir dan sarjana kolonial British, yang hanya tertumpu pada perubahan dan peristiwa politik (menurut perspektif mereka), serta perkembangan kegiatan pentadbiran dan ekonomi kolonial British sahaja. Cebisan-cebisan sejarah yang telah dipersembahkan ini misalnya, sebahagian besarnya adalah berdasarkan sumber-sumber kolonial ini. Perspektif masyarakat tempatan serta penduduk peribumi asal kawasan ini, pada ketika atau sebelum zaman itu, tidak tercatat atau belum ditemui, dan kini kian lenyap. 

Namun penulisan sejarah tidak pernah tetap dan muktamad, dan proses persejarahan masih terus berkembang sehingga kini. Ahli-ahli sejarah tempatan telah lama giat menjalankan persejarahan menurut perspektif tempatan, melalui pendekatan baru dan rentas disiplin (contohnya sejarah masyarakat peribumi, kampung, bandar, ladang, daerah dsbgnya, dari pelbagai sudut kajian seperti komuniti, sosial, ekonomi, ekologi, dsbgnya). Usaha-usaha ini melibatkan penafsiran semula sumber-sumber yang ada, atau penemuan sumber-sumber baru dalam pelbagai bentuk, di dalam dan luar negeri. Selain bahan-bahan sejarah di Arkib Negara, dan tinggalan binaan-binaan lama, warisan alam sekitar juga merupakan tinggalan sejarah zaman berzaman, yang berpotensi menjadi bahan kajian sejarah. Sebagaimana tinggalan sejarah yang lain, sekiranya ia dirosakkan atau dimusnahkan, maka hilanglah potensinya sebagai bahan kajian, buat selama-lamanya.

Walaubagaimanapun, realiti zaman moden memaksa pembangunan terus dijalankan, di kawasan-kawasan yang tidak/belum  diwartakan sebagai simpanan, warisan, atau rizab. Maka langkah yang lebih realistik ialah mengenalpasti kawasan-kawasan yang tidak sesuai (atau kurang sesuai) dibangunkan dengan binaan-binaan, atas sebab-sebab keselamatan (kawasan sensitif), contohnya lereng-lereng bukit seperti Bukit Dinding, Bukit TM Wangsa Maju, Bukit Persekutuan, Bukit Pudu Ulu, dll, dan diusahakan pewartaannya sebagai hutan simpan, warisan, atau taman hutan. Selain untuk tujuan rekreasi bagi penduduk setempat, pemeliharaan ekosistem dan biodiversiti, serta daya tarikan pelancong alam semulajadi, ia juga dapat dikekalkan sebagai tinggalan sejarah, yang berpotensi menjadi bahan kajian. Sebagai contoh, terowong lama (dipercayai dibina tahun 1870-an) telah ditemui di sekitar Hutan Simpan Bukit Nanas pada tahun 2014, lebih 100 tahun setelah ia diwartakan pada tahun 1906. Mungkinkah ada tinggalan sejarah di Bukit Dinding, misalnya kesan-kesan Perang Klang, malah petempatan atau kegiatan peribumi asal sebelumnya? Warisan alam sekitar adalah umpama “saksi bisu”, menanti kajian para sejarawan rentas disiplin, dengan sumber, pendekatan dan kaedah/teknologi terkini, di masa akan datang.

====== Nota Kaki ======

==== [1] 1840-1850-an: Perlombongan di Gonggang ====

Umumnya kawasan yang dinamakan “Gonggang” ialah kawasan perlombongan di lembangan Sungai Bunus, di antara Sungai Gombak dan Sungai Klang, termasuk sekitar Taman Tasik Titiwangsa, Air Panas dan Setapak Jaya kini. Menurut catatan Raja H.M. Yacob berjudul “Tarikh Raja Asal” (1934), Gonggang (Gerongkang) telah dibuka sekitar 1855 oleh Hulubalang Ali, salah seorang ketua di bawah Sutan Puasa. Catatan lisan Abdullah Hukum mengenai pengalamannya di Setapak sekitar tahun 1850-an turut menyatakan Sutan Puasa dan para pemimpin Mandailing sebagai ketua-ketua di sekitar Setapak (Gonggang) ketika itu. Manakala “Kampung Gonggang” pula mungkin merujuk kawasan-kawasan petempatan kediaman dan perkebunan yang berhampiran dengan pusat bandar Kuala Lumpur. Kampung ini meliputi sehingga ke Tanah Perkuburan Jalan Ampang (dahulu Perkuburan Gonggang) di sebelah selatan, Kampung Datuk Keramat di sebelah timur, dan bersempadan dengan KEMENTAH (dahulu Rifle Range) di sebelah timur laut. (Maklumat lanjut dan sumber-sumber: **[[https://kl.pulasan.my/gonggang|Gonggang / Setapak (1850-an)]]**

==== [2] 1867-1874: Lokasi Perang Klang ====

Kawasan sekitar Bukit Dinding, termasuk Ulu Gonggang (hulu Sungai Bunus) di sebelah barat, dan lembah Sungai Gisir di sebelah utara, menjadi antara lokasi Perang Klang (1867-1874), di antara kumpulan Tengku Kudin dan Yap Ah Loy (menyebelahi Raja Abdullah) dengan kumpulan Syed Mashhor dan Chong Chong (menyebelahi Raja Mahadi). Di dalam salah satu babak pertempuran tersebut, pasukan Syed Mashhor telah menyerang pasukan Yap Ah Loy (diketuai Hiu Fatt and Tung Khoon) di Ulu Klang dari Ampang, manakala pasukan Chong Chong mara dari sebelah barat Bukit Dinding (yang kemudiannya menjadi Ladang Gonggang dan Hawthornden), lalu mengepung pihak lawan dari belakang, kemungkinan dari lembah Sungai Gisir di sebelah utara Bukit Dinding. Namun pasukan Yap Ah Loy yang lain (diketuai Chung Piang) sempat sampai ke lokasi kepungan dan setelah pertempuran yang panjang, berjaya mematahkan serangan lalu memaksa pasukan Chong Chong berundur kembali ke Ampang.

Ketika peringkat awal pentadbiran kolonial British pada tahun 1880-an, kawasan lembangan Sungai Bunus yang dikenali sebagai "Gonggang" (kemudiannya Setapak) telah pun menjadi antara pusat perlombongan bijih timah. Ia beransur  berkembang sehingga ke hulu Sungai Bunus, iaitu di sekitar Wangsa Maju kini. Keadaan ini ada direkodkan di dalam sepucuk surat bertarikh 24 September 1883, daripada juruukur M'Carthy kepada H.F.Bellamy, ketika beliau mencadangkan pembinaan jalan baru bagi menghubungkan kedua-dua lokasi tersebut:-

//"I have the honor to report for your information that while on a visit of inspection of the road leading to Kong Yap Soon's mine I heard that from this mine to the Boonoose, the whole country was being opened up and a great deal is(?) working orderly. Chinese towkays who have some time past been turning out good tin ore. Under the circumstances I thought it worth while to proceed along the bridle path for about a mile or so past Kong Yap Soon's mine. After proceeding about 400 yds I came upon a mine lately opened on which many Chinese were working. About 1/2 a mile further on, extensive mining operations are being carried on & from the number of sheds ? this place has the appearance of a promising village. I noticed several hundred Chinese at work here & busily engaged. From the general appearance of the country, I should imagine the output will be good, altho, as the country is flat, machinery would have a very beneficial effect. From this last point to Ulu Boonoose (a direct line) through open country, several mines I believe are being opened up, and I was informed that probably before long the whole line of country leading to U. B. will be taken up either for mining or agriculture. I bring this matter under your notice as one of deserving of consideration as I feel convinced that if the road being completed by Sr. Akes(?) was contd. direct to U. Boonoose (abt. 2 1/2 or 3 miles) and coming in on the Pahang Road would prove very valuable to this district. There is at present a great traffic from the vicinity along K Yap Soon's Road to K. Lumpur, and at no distant date I anticipate as much traffic on this road as the Ampang Road. It is needless for me to note that roads are in all countries generally reproductive, and if this road to U. Boonoose were constructed I feel sure that the revenue from mining would soon cover the outlay. The country is flat without being swampy & a road of easy construction could without any difficulty be made. It should no doubt be advisable if you were to make an inspection of the country herein referred to. Until this matter receives your consideration, I have asked Sr. Akes(?) not to continue the deviation leading into Kong Yap Soon's mine, as it can only serve the purposes of one individual."//

Pada Oktober 1888, Ladang "Ulu Gonggang" di Batu 5 Jalan Pahang Kuala Lumpur (di penghujung sebelah utara [[gonggang|pusat perlombongan Gonggang]]) telah dibuka oleh F. A. Toynbee, bekas pengurus ladang Weld's Hill kepunyaan syarikat Messrs. Hill and Rathborne: //"I have the honour to enclose an application from Mr. F. A. Toynbee, Manager of Weld's Hill Estate for one thousand acres of land lying between the 5th mile post Pahang Road and Ulu G(r)onggang for the purpose of planting coffee and pepper, as shown on his rough sketch attached to his letter. The land is hilly and well suited for the purpose, and though bordering on extensive mining properties, is not likely, on account of its conformation, to be required for mines. I therefore recommend that it be granted to Mr. Toynbee at the usual figure for forest land of $3 premium and 10c quit rent per acre, and that he be allowed the refusal of the intervening land, which is of the same nature, for 3 years, or the first choice of taking it up if it be applied for in the meantime by other parties. No exclusive right to the timber on the land can be granted, but the right of the lessee to cut what he wants for himself is not likely to be interfered with by the Government."// ([[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Conway_Belfield|Henry Conway Belfield]] @ PEJABAT SETIAUSAHA KERAJAAN NEGERI SELANGOR, 09/10/1888: {{ :arkib:19570012622d02.pdf ||}}[[https://ofa.arkib.gov.my/ofa/digital/asset/20578|"ENCLOSES AN APPLICATIONS FROM MR.F.A.TOYNBEE MANAGER OF WELDS HILLS ESTATE FOR ONE THOUSAND ACRES OF LAND LYING BETWEEN THE 5TH MILE POST PAHANG ROAD AND ULU GONGGANG FOR THE PURPOSE OF PLANTING COFFEE & PEPPER"]]).

==== [5] 1892: Perkembangan Ladang Hawthornden ====

Kerja-kerja ukur telah dijalankan di Ladang Hawthornden (bersama Ladang Lincoln dan Aberscross di kawasan yang sama) mulai tahun 1890, untuk tujuan pemetaan dan pengeluaran geran bagi ladang-ladang tersebut. Ianya hanya dapat diselesaikan pada tahun 1892, oleh kerana terdapat kawasan hutan tebal di sebelah timur (kemungkinan menghala ke Bukit Dinding) yang dikatakan sebagai punca kelewatan (PEJABAT SETIAUSAHA KERAJAAN NEGERI SELANGOR, 16/06/1892: "REQUESTS THAT ALL DESPATCH BE USED IN COMPLETING THE RESURVEY OF LINCOLN AND HAWTHORNDEN ESTATES." - https://ofa.arkib.gov.my/ofa/group/asset/41728 ). 

Pada 10 Jun 1892, L. Dougal (pemilik Lincoln Estate, dan rakan kongsi F.A. Toynbee di Hawthornden Estate), memohon peluasan ladang di sebelah timur kawasan sedia ada: //"Hawthornden Estate, Selangor. 10th June 1892. Sir, I have the honor to inform you that for some months past I have been negotiating with my friends in Europe re opening a Coffee Estate in Selangor & by last mail received a favorable reply. I enclose sketch showing the land I am desirous of taking up for this purpose. I shall be glad to hear on an early date."//

Pihak pentadbir mengarahkan tinjauan dibuat, kerana khuatir tanah yang dipohon itu bertindan dengan Aberscross Estate: //"Govt. Sec S., Please pass to Survey Office and ask them to plot Aberscross on the district plan. I can then establish some connection between the position of Aberscross and the customary holdings in the neighbourhood. -?, 13/6"//

Setelah Residen melawat kawasan tersebut, kemungkinan permohonan ini ditarik balik kerana bertindan dengan Aberscross Estate milik Murray Campbell itu: //"Govt. Sec S., The ? ? this application is enclosed in ? 4511/92 in which paper I have referred to this one. On the occasion of the Resident's visit to the coffee estates on the 3rd inst.

==== [6] 1903-1906: Lombong dan Ladang Loke Yew ====

Pada tahun 1903, Loke Yew telah diberi lesen melombong bijih timah di keseluruhan Hawthorden Estate, dengan keluasan maksima seluas 500 ekar. Setakat tahun 1909, beliau telah membuka seluas ~262 ekar di dalam ladang ini. Jumlah besar keluasan lombong beliau ialah 7,191 ekar, dengan pekerja seramai 15,072 orang: //"In 1903 Loke Yew was granted a license to prospect the whole of this Estate for tin with the right to select up to 500 acres; at a premium of $10/- an acre for uncultivated land and $5/- an acre for cultivated land, vide correspondence 6679/03.

Pada tahun 1906, berikutan kenaikan harga getah, Loke Yew telah memanfaatkan modal hasil bijih timahnya untuk mengubah kebanyakan tanah-tanah lombongnya kepada perladangan. Hawthornden Estate turut dijadikan campuran ladang getah dan lombong bijih timah (300 ekar lombong, 300 ekar tanaman getah), di bawah pengurusan Mr. A.G. Crane. Jumlah keluasan keseluruhan Hawthornden Estate menjelang tahun 1910 ialah 2,400 ekar:-

  * //"Loke Yew continued to demonstrate a lack of long term commitment to the industry. In 1901 he had established the Serendah & Jeher Hydraulic Co. in partnership with Loke Chow Thye and Loke Chow Kit, working on rich mining land in Serendah, Setapak and the surrounding areas. But at the beginning of the rubber boom in 1906 he sold the company and converted the land to rubber cultivation."// (Rajeswary Ampalavanar Brown, 2016: [[https://books.google.com.my/books?id=-QW_DAAAQBAJ|Capital and Entrepreneurship in South-East Asia]], m.s. 86).

  * //"Capital accumulated in the tin-mining industry was a significant source of investment in the rubber planting industry. As Chinese tin miners faced increasing challenges from European companies at the turn of the century, rubber planting provided them with a new outlet of investment. The Cantonese built up a strong presence in the rubber planting industry as the majority of leading Chinese tin miners were Cantonese. Loke Yew accumulated a vast holding of rubber estates in the 1900s, adding a new dimension to his business empire of tin mining, revenue farming, properties and miscellaneous investments. By 1910 he had several large rubber estates: the Kalumpang and Wayat Estates with W. de L. Brooke as manager and the Changkat Asa Estate with Ho Siew Chee as manager within his concession at Tanjong Malim, Perak; the 2,400-acre Hawthornden Estate with A.G. Crane as manager, the 2,000-acre Bukit Kamuning Estate with R.V. McClelland as manager, and the Serendah Estate in Selangor with P. Hoffner as manager. (Singapore and Straits Directory 1910, p. 396; Singapore and Straits Directory 1920, p. 487.) In 1897 Loke Yew was granted 20,000 acres of land in Ulu Bernam, Selangor, for paddy planting purposes. By 1905 about 4,000 acres in the concession were planted with gambier, pepper, rubber and coconuts, while the original paddy scheme had been dropped. ... In terms of the size of rubber estate holdings, he was one of the biggest Chinese rubber estate owners in the 1910s. (Wright and Cartwright, Twentieth Century Impressions, pp. 435-6.)"// (William Tai Yuen @ The University of Hong Kong, June 2010: {{ :buku:chinese_capitalism_in_colonial_malaya_1900-1941.pdf ||}}[[http://dx.doi.org/10.5353%2Fth_b4440737|"Chinese Capitalism in Colonial Malaya, 1900-1941"]], m.s.193).

Crane, who carried on business as a valuer and commission agent in that city for many years, and is now living in retirement in England. After leaving Dedham Grammar School, Mr. A.G. Crane was for some time on his Majesty's training-ship Worcester. He then came out to the East and joined his father's business. Two years later he entered the service of a mercantile firm, and remained with them for two years, when, owing to ill-health, he had to go to Canada. In that country he resided for three years, when, owing to ill-health, he had to go to Canada. In that country he resided for three years, two of which were spent i a silk house and the other in a salmon-tinning business. Returning to the Far East, he joined the Perak Government service, and was in it for four years. At the end of this engagement Mr. Crane went to England to study mining and mineralogy. Having gone through a short college term, he returned to the Federated Malay States in 1904, and, on behalf of a Perak Syndicate, prospected for tin ore in Western Siam for a year and a half. Having selected two tin concessions for the syndicate, he returned to Kuala Lumpor and accepted Towkay Loke Yew's offer of the management of Hawthornden estate, which comprises about 300 acres of tin-mining land and 300 acres planted with rubber. Mr. Crane is an enthusiastic amateur photographer."// (Arnold Wright, H.A.

Menurut rekod Pihak Berkuasa Kemajuan Pekebun Kecil Perusahaan Getah (RISDA) tahun 1958, Gonggang Estate ketika itu dimiliki oleh Khor Joo Saik dan diurus oleh suaminya Dr Chua Boon Teck, dan penanaman getah kali pertama dijalankan di ladang tersebut sekitar tahun 1921 (Arkib Negara 1992/0006821W, 05/11/1958: {{ :arkibgambar:online_finding_aids_-_material_detail_-_371392.pdf ||}}[[https://ofa.arkib.gov.my/ofa/group/asset/371392|"GONGGANG ESTATE - DR.CHUA BOON TECK (MANAGER) 34, KLYNE STREET K.LUMPUR"]]).

Menurut Presiden Pertubuhan Suara Setiawangsa, Harun Mohd Amin, sehingga tahun 1960-an terdapat sebuah air terjun di situ, yang kini telah dikambus atau diubah alirannya mengikut binaan sistem perparitan baru: "... Presiden Pertubuhan Suara Setiawangsa, Harun Mohd Amin berkata, rancangan pembangunan di Bukit Dinding perlu dikaji sebaiknya kerana ia bukan sekadar bukit tetapi merupakan kawasan tadahan dan mempunyai laluan air. Harun juga mendakwa berdasarkan sejarah Bukit Dinding, dahulunya terdapat aliran air terjun namun telah ditutup. "Dalam tahun 60-an ada air terjun di Bukit Dinding jadi ia tidak boleh dibangunkan. Bukannya kita tolak pembangunan, tetapi pembangunan ini akan sengsarakan generasi akan datang," katanya."

Sepanjang tahun 1983-1995, Ladang Gonggang Estate, termasuk kawasan kaki dan lereng sebelah barat daya [[https://hutan.pulasan.my/bukit_dinding|Bukit Dinding]], mula dibangunkan oleh syarikat Island & Peninsular (I&P) Group Sdn Bhd, kemudiannya dikenali sebagai "Taman Setiawangsa". Peringkat terakhir pembangunan ini ialah Puncak Setiawangsa, dan disiapkan pada tahun 1995:-

//""Setiawangsa caters mainly for the upper-middle to upper class. The terraced houses there, especially in Puncak Setiawangsa, are priced from RM700,000 to RM1.5 million while the semidees and bungalows cost RM1.5 million to RM2 million and RM3 million to RM7 million respectively," says LaurelCap Sdn Bhd executive director Stanley Toh. "Thus, only a certain income group can afford the properties there." The non-landed residential properties in the area fetch about RM400 psf. According to Toh,  Taman Setiawangsa was developed by Island & Peninsular (I&P) Group Sdn Bhd. "Taman Setiawangsa was developed by I&P Group. The foothill and mid-hill areas were developed in stages in the 1980s before work started on Puncak Setiawangsa, which was completed in 1995," he says. The 100ha suburb comprises about 3,092 residential units, a large portion of which are freehold, he adds. According to Metro REC Sdn Bhd managing director Ng Weng Yew, Setiawangsa is also the operational base for multinational corporations such as Texas Instruments Inc and pharmaceutical company Fidin Universal Sdn Bhd. "Setiawangsa is also well known for Bukit Dinding, a hill that houses a 200-acre forest," says Ng. ... "Setiawangsa comprises foothill and mid-hill areas such as Taman Setiawangsa, Puncak Setiawangsa and Bukit Setiawangsa," says Ainnura Aerina Sabirin, who grew up in the area."// (Hannah Rafee @ The Edge Malaysia, January 31, 2019: {{ :akhbar:cover_story_still_a_popular_address_for_property_buyers_the_edge_markets.pdf ||}}[[https://www.theedgemarkets.com/article/cover-story-still-popular-address-property-buyers|"Cover Story: Still a popular address for property buyers"]]).
