I'm not sure if I'm generalising but December does not seem to be a good month normally for Malaysia. With the heavy rainfall come mishaps such as floods and landslides.In another area in Kuala Lumpur, Cheras, residents here are living in fear of a possible landslide as shown in the photo. Hope the authorities step in for appropriate action.
Meanwhile, residents of Bukit Antarabangsa are taking legal action against government authorities for compensation for not taking appropriate remedial action earlier on when residents reported several incidents. Do they have a case, do you think?
History repeating itself...very sad
ReplyDeleteIt does look scary, doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteHaih! The genting's case about a decade ago is already a good lesson for us. Why do we love to put ourselves in the same situation again? Why do some people willing to earn extra $$$ in other expense?
ReplyDeleteMost unfortunate that we have very short memory span when it comes to this. Should there be stricter rules for hillside development?
ReplyDeleteI hope they have a case. The residents should be compensated as it's really unfair to them.
ReplyDeleteIt looks positive: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi said the Government was considering compensation for victims of the Bukit Antarabangsa landslide.
