THE owner of the resort in Tanjung Bungah where four foreign workers were killed after a retaining wall collapsed should have hired a professional contractor for the job, said the Malaysia Malay Contractors Association.

Association president Datuk Mohamed Fadzill Hassan said by hiring a professional, not only would all the necessary approvals be obtained but there would also be insurance coverage.
