THE year started on an upbeat note for the Kuala Langat district when it was upgraded to a municipality on March 1 after a 13-year wait.

Sepang district officer Mohammad Zain A. Hamid, who was Kuala Langat District Council president during that time, said he hoped that with the new status, there would be reform in mindset with regard to rubbish management, specifically littering and illegal dumping.
