KUALA LUMPUR: Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) has now been ordered to come up with new guidelines to manage the city’s ageing trees, even as an expert said that the tragedy in the city could have been averted if its roots had not been curtailed.
Minister in the Prime Minister’s Department (Federal Territories) Dr Zaliha Mustafa said it was important to catalogue older trees, many of which are between 50 and 80 years old, due to the unpredictable weather conditions.
