PETALING JAYA: The Malaysian Nature Society (MNS) is concerned over the proposed dega-zetting of four forest reserves that form part of Selangor State Park for the construction of the Kuala Lumpur Outer Ring Road (KLORR).

The road calls for land measuring 106.65ha to be carved out of the Hulu Langat, Bukit Sungei Puteh, Ulu Gombak and Ampang forest reserves, which in turn are part of the 108,300ha state park.
