Snakes have entered several times, ” Lai Yee told reporters during a visit by Perak MCA public service and complaints bureau chief Low Guo Nan.““We know this house is not safe to live in but we do not have a choice. There is also talk that the land has been sold. We are worried that someday we will be asked to move out, ” she added.Lai Yee said her brother had been paralysed for two years after an accident.
