CONCERNED over the rise in dengue cases and deaths caused by the outbreak, residents from Bandar Bukit Rajah in Klang are urging the Klang Municipal Council (MPK) to look into the poor maintenance of the neighbourhood park immediately.

They claim that the contractor engaged to clean the park had done a shoddy job, leaving piles of garden waste and bags filled with garbage all over the place.
