NILAI: Prompt action by a member of the public who reported a man dumping what is believed to be used engine oil into a monsoon drain here prevented water supply to areas located near the Negri Sembilan-Selangor border from being disrupted.
Environment, health, cooperatives and consumerism committee chairman S. Veerapan (pic) said the individual also managed to record the suspect dumping the waste from a tank mounted on a one-tonne lorry into the drain in Taman Ros Merah, which leads to Sg Batang Nilai around 10pm on Tuesday (Aug 4).
