HULU SELANGOR: The B66 route connecting Jalan Batang Kali to Genting Highlands has been reopened, nearly two years after a tragic landslide at the Father’s Organic Farm campsite.

The incident, which occurred on Dec 16, 2022, claimed 31 lives and prompted the Works Ministry to close the route to facilitate critical slope and road repairs at the site.
