The elevated terrain of Gombak will account for the Economic decision factor when selecting a suitable site for building the CDQC. For the construction of buildings at steep slopes tend to involve plenty of cut-and-fill which will result in relatively higher developmental costs, the selected site should avoid steep slopes.
From the Digital Elevation - Contour Lines View (Bottom Right), the Gombak terrain tends to become relatively greater in its steepness when progressing from the North area to the South-Central area of Gombak. This could explain for the lack of buildings in the South region of Gombak because of the steepness of the slopes evident by the closeness of the contour lines, which could result in higher developmental costs for the construction of any buildings in that area. However, with the low-elevated land areas of Gombak already having features like waterbodies and housing areas which we would want to avoid, we might have to consider the selection of the suitable site being in the South area of Gombak.
