Kerteh gas leak: Tahfiz school students relocated as safety precaution


KERTEH: More than 20 occupants of a ‘tahfiz’ religious school here will be relocated today as a precautionary measure following a gas pipeline leak involving PETRONAS Gas Berhad (PGB) at the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) project site on Saturday (Sept 20).

Kemaman OCPD Supt Mohd Razi Rosli said that although the religious school is located some two kilometres from the incident site, early action was necessary to ensure the safety of its occupants due to the potential risk of air pollution if wind directions shift.
