Klang Municipal Council (MPK) has shut down an open air storage site at Jalan Kem following complaints of dust pollution by residents of Sri Berembang and Taman Kem flats in Port Klang.

For three weeks, almost 500 families living in the walk-up flats experienced discomfort which they say resulted from the open-air site used to store coal and oil palm kernel.
