Kindergartens formally situated on landed property with plenty of outdoor space now hardly have any, and children have to make do without playgrounds.

At Jalan Molek 1, there are three humps on the main road, all within 400 meters.
Taman Molek currently has 14 banks, and numerous day care centers, easily making it one of the busiest residential-commercial areas in Johor.
