The Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change Minister said a preliminary report was tabled in the Cabinet earlier in January during which several issues were raised to make the report more comprehensive, including the need to include the reports of the relevant parties involved such as the Local Government Development Ministry and the police.

"The full report of the incident will be tabled to the Cabinet," he told reporters after attending the Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change Ministry’s new year gathering at Wisma Sumber Asli here on Thursday (Jan 19).

A total of 31 people died, while 61 survived, out of a total of 92 victims involved in the landslide which occurred on Dec 16 last year.- Bernama
