Another case of encroachment

SIX years have passed and Gunung Panjang, the limestone hill that overlooks the Panorama Tambun Perdana (The Dales) residential area on Jalan Tambun, is once again under threat.

Land-clearing activities have been noted by residents and they are worried that it could cause landslides or rockfalls as the nearest houses are just a stone’s throw away from the hill.
