Stop polluting or get hauled to court, Sepang pig farmers warned


By CY LEE

THE Selangor government has ordered pig farmers in Tanjung Sepat, Sepang to take immediate measures to prevent further pollution of nearby coastal waters or face legal action.

Following reports that area residents had complained about foul smell and water pollution in the form of black liquid in drains and flowing out to sea, a multi-agency investigation concluded that water pollution had occurred due to conventional pig farming practices.
