BATANG KALI: The Selangor government will wait for a report on the soil condition of the Taman Mega Jaya landslide site before deciding on its next course of action, says Selangor Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari.

"We are expecting the report by Ikram and the Mineral and Geoscience Department (JMG) in about three days. Our focus now is to determine if the site is safe or not. The priority is residents’ evacuation to ensure lives are saved," he said.
