‘Objection period for Kuala Langat plan too short’


Kuala Langat North Forest Reserve is a healthy peat swamp forest with good forest cover.

THE request for an extension on the objection period for a proposal to degazette the Kuala Langat North Forest Reserve (KLNFR) is to develop proper documentation of the real value of the forest and adequately consult the local community, says the Coalition for the Protection of Selangor’s Forests.

The coalition, comprising seven environmental and social NGOs, said more time was needed as many people had not been aware of the 30-day notice inviting stakeholders in Kuala Langat to voice their objections.
