TWO construction sites in Kuala Lumpur have been forced to close for two weeks after they were found to be mosquito breeding grounds during an operation organised by the Construction Industry Development Board (CIDB).

In a CIDB statement, it was stated that WCT Berhad, the contractor for an 11-storey commercial complex in Jalan Cochrane and Akisama Construction Sdn Bhd, the contractor for a mixed development in Jalan Satu would be charged for the offence.
