STATE Tourism, Consumer Affairs and Environment committee chairman Elizabeth Wong said local councils held regular meetings with the Public Works Department (JKR) and Public Works Institute of Malaysia (Ikram) to ensure hillslope development projects were safe and carried out according to specifications.
“Ikram and JKR submitted reports on the stability of hillslopes and this is monitored closely,’’ Wong said at the state assembly in response to a question by Mohd Azmin Ali (PR-Bukit Antarabangsa) on measures taken to ensure the safety of hillslopes.
