MB to explain bid to de-gazette Pulau Kukup


JOHOR BARU: Johor Mentri Besar Datuk Osman Sapian, who has come under much flak over the earlier revoking of Pulau Kukup’s national park status, is expected to answer to his critics on the final day of the state assembly meeting tomorrow.

For now, he declined to answer queries about Pulau Kukup, which has been categorised as “sultanate land” following an announcement from the Johor palace, after the state government de-gazetted the island and cancelled its position as a protected national park.
