Environment Dept denies ignoring report from Orang Asli about Sg Menintei pollution

PUTRAJAYA: The Environment Department has denied a news report claiming that the department has ignored a complaint lodged by a Orang Asli representative about pollution at Sungai Menintei, Gua Musang.

Its director-general Wan Abdul Latiff Wan Jaffar said the news report titled 'Orang Asli Kelantan Kesal JAS Abai Aduan Sungai Tercemar' was untrue because investigations found that the complainant had not submitted any application for its officials to conduct water sample analysis as alleged.
