SINCE the completion of a RM2.3mil flood mitigation project in Lim Garden last October, residents there have been living peacefully without flash floods disrupting their lives.

The project, which includes the building of a pump house, a 1,042m-long drain and the installation of a storm water pump, has thus far successfully prevented flooding with a committee set up to operate the pump house to release water into Sungai Pari.
