Mud floods damage 25 homes


Zuraida (in headscarf) ordered the highway concessionaire to start mitigation works to prevent a recurrence of the mud flood after her site visit to Sierra Ukay.

SITE clearing works for the East Klang Valley Expressway (EKVE) project caused some 25 houses in Sierra Ukay, Ukay Perdana in Ampang to be inundated with mud floods during heavy rainfall on Sunday night.

Silt from the clearing works taking place on a hill above the residential area was believed to have washed down during the downpour, causing water to rise up to 1m in several areas.
