Flood mitigation ineffective


Taman Putra Sulaiman residents are always worried that water from the monsoon drain will overflow into their houses during a downpour.

FLOODING is a recurring problem that residents of Taman Nirwana and Taman Putra Sulaiman in Ampang Jaya have had to live with for over a decade.

They thought their woes were finally over following the completion of a RM4mil flood mitigation project by Ampang Jaya Municipal Council (MPAJ); instead they had a rude awakening when their neighbourhood was inundated last month.
