SEREMBAN: The Melaka government must ensure that fishermen living on the Negri Sembilan side of its border are compensated once work starts on the RM15bil Kuala Linggi International Port (KLIP), says Datuk Seri Aminuddin Harun.

The Negri Sembilan Mentri Besar said the fishermen must be paid compensation as their livelihood will be affected due to the proposed project, which will include the reclamation of a 205.9ha area.
