Penampang and KK folk worry over floods and severe erosion

Unwelcome barrier: Mounds of earth blocking the way after a landslip at the Penampang-Tambunan road.

Penampang district officer William Sampil said there have been dozens of reports of landslips and flood related damage from villages in the district.

“As of now, we have 12 incidents of landslips and severe erosion in several villages,” he said, adding that one house had collapsed while several others were on the verge of falling down.
