PETALING JAYA: A proper plan to tackle landslides by mapping risky areas should be drafted, says an engineering expert.Prof Dr Edy Tonnizam Mohamad of Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) said such a plan must include the different risk factors such as drainage, debris flow, landslides, residential and economic aspects.
Prof Edy, who is also director of UTM’s Institute of Smart Infrastructure and Innovative Construction, called on the public, especially those living in high-risk areas, to be educated on the natural alarm system.
