IPOH: The reason behind the bluish hue in Sungai Perak remains unclear and there is no proof connecting it to mining operations, says Datuk Seri Saarani Mohamad.
The Perak Mentri Besar said records showing similar cases of the river turning blue were reported as far back as 2018 in the same area, well before the rare earth element (REE) mining industry began operations in the state.
