Developer fined for Aug 16 Shah Alam floods


Dr Nor Fuad: MBSA’s water pumps were working but there was a flap gate problem falling under a government agency’s jurisdiction.

THE cause of flash floods at Section 13, in Shah Alam, Selangor on Aug 16 has been linked to the developer’s failure to instal a silt trap at its construction site.

Shah Alam mayor Dr Nor Fuad Abdul Hamid told StarMetro that Shah Alam City Council (MBSA) suspected that one pocket development near the flooded area had impacted the quality of the floodwaters.
