Flood mitigation study needed to provide long-term solution, says Johor exco member

JOHOR BARU: The Federal Government has been urged to conduct a sustainable flood mitigation study on high-risk areas in the state to provide a long-term solution to the issue.

Johor Housing and Local Government committee chairman Datuk Mohd Jafni Md Shukor said that the study should not only look at solutions for low-land areas but also areas that might be inundated when a high volume of rain falls.
