Majority of Bkt Antarabangsa residents can return home (Updated)
Selangor Mentri Besar Tan Sri Khalid Ibrahim told reporters here on Friday that this was based on the preliminary findings of the Public Works Institute of Malaysia and the Public Works Department (PWD) following the landslide tragedy on Dec 6, which killed four people and destroyed 14 houses.
The report was handed to Khalid here about 12.45pm on Friday.
He, however, said he had not read the report in full yet, saying only that most of the residents in the five affected areas would be able to return to their homes.
“The Gombak District officer and MPAJ president will now study the report in full. I will make an announcement on Sunday at the site of the landslide,” added Khalid, who did say when the residents could return to their homes.
He said the Gombak District Officer and MPAJ president would go to the landslide site on Saturday to identify the houses that would have to be abandoned.
Some 3,000 Bukit Antarabangsa residents had been waiting cautiously for the report as it would determine whether they would have to abandon their homes.
.......................................Welcome home, homies!!!
Next course of action will be to pull all Resident Associations from the various BA 'tamans' to gather and discuss future Crisis Management Procedures. 6 December 2008 is a lesson learnt.
