JOHOR BARU (Bernama): The Johor government hopes that the gas detectors used to detect volatile organic compounds (VOCs) will remain placed in high-risk schools in Pasir Gudang, says state Education, Human Resource, Science and Technology Committee chairman Aminolhuda Hassan (pic).

He said the priority for the placement of the gas detectors loaned by the Environment Department (DOE) would be given to the 10 schools located near the industrial area to enable the teachers to monitor the current condition of the air.
