Ramping up action against illegal dumping


Enforcement officers from MPSepang inspecting a truck used for illegal dumping. Last year, 250 individuals were detained for such activities, with a further 50 arrested from January to May this year.

Sepang Municipal Council (MPSepang) will conduct integrated operations with relevant agencies such as Sepang District Land Office and hit fly-tippers with maximum fines to deal with the illegal dumping problem in traditional villages.

Responding to complaints by Kampung Giching residents that the illegal dumping problem in their area had become worse over time, MPSepang president Datuk Abd Hamid Hussain said the council viewed this seriously and vowed that action would be taken, including working with other agencies, to tackle the issue.
