THE recent spate of landslides in Kuala Lumpur occurred mostly in older neighbourhoods, where there has not been any development for decades, the Kuala Lumpur mayor says.

Datuk Seri Mahadi Che Ngah said the majority of areas that experienced landslides were older townships like Bangsar and Taman Duta, with no construction sites located nearby.
