Sungai Kim Kim coming back to life


Samples from Sungai Kim Kim, Pasir Gudang collected to determine the river’s water quality.

SUNGAI Kim Kim, which made headlines in March 2019 due to toxic water pollution affecting over 6,000 people in Pasir Gudang, is now far cleaner, based on recent testing.

Universiti Tun Hussein Onn Malaysia (UTHM) lecturer Dr Nor Amani Filzah Mohd Kamil from the Civil Engineering and Built Environment Faculty said this finding was based on the average score per taxon (ASPT) technique, which was a more suitable and cost-effective method to determine river water quality.
