Mangrove forest to make way for road upgrade


MNS says the pristine mangrove forest in Sungai Sepang is set to see its geography permanently altered once road upgrading works begin on Monday.

MALAYSIAN Nature Society (MNS) is worried about the effects from a road upgrading project cutting through the mangrove forest in Sepang.

According to the staff at MNS’ Sepang Environmental Interpretive Centre, the 10km-long Jalan Besar Salak (B48) will be upgraded in stages starting from the junction at Simpang Tiga Jenderam up to Pekan Sepang Lama.
