KUALA LUMPUR: The decision by the Federal Territories Ministry to nullify the 120-year-old Malay Agricultural Settlement Board (MAS) in Kampung Baru has no basis in law, says honorary secretary Shamsuri Suradi.

He said both the Kampung Baru Development Act 2011 and the Capital City Act 1960, which the ministry had cited as reasons for the decision, provided no grounds for the dissolution of the body.
