Abandoned cars in the Anjung Tawas Damai light industrial area in Ipoh are becoming more than just an eyesore, say people in the area.

The derelict vehicles could give rise to another dengue outbreak in the area and residents living nearby are worried that they could catch dengue fever if no action is taken.
