Far from spick and span


Unkempt: The homeless have taken up residence in front of shops in Jalan C.M. Yusuff, Ipoh, cluttering the space with their belongings.

Ipoh residents are sceptical of MBI’s target to turn Perak’s capital into the nation’s cleanest city by next year due to strewn rubbish, missing drain covers, potholes and the homeless living on the streets.

IPOH City Council (MBI) is just months away from realising its target to make the city the cleanest in Malaysia by 2023.
