MIRI: The Pan Borneo Highway authorities must learn from the highway collapse at the Tatau-Bintulu stretch in northern Sarawak and carry out immediate ground stability checks on other routes.

Social activist and lawyer Abun Sui said technical checks on other erosion-prone routes must be done now as there are signs the landas season would get worse.
