Villagers happy to breathe fresh air again


Normal now: Tan is delighted to run his business without air pollution from the illegal carbon factory in Kampung Sungai Lembu.

BUKIT MERTAJAM: With all 31 pits of the former illegal carbon factory in Kampung Sungai Lembu in ruins and covered in overgrowth, it is now fresh air and clear skies for the villagers.

This village was the centre of attention in 2017 when it was found that an illegal carbon factory had been spewing smoke throughout the day for more than 10 years.
