The police have ordered residents from a condominium tower located near the landslide site in Bukit Antarabangsa to evacuate immediately. According to Bernama, Selangor police chief Khalid Abu Bakar said that there were fears that the building "may collapse at any time". The Public Works Department has found the area where the Kyoto Garden Condominium is located to be risky. The condo sits on a hillside near the landslide area. The disaster hit early yesterday, burying 14 houses at the upmarket suburb in northeast Kuala Lumpur, cutting off access for thousands of residents and disrupting water, electricity and phone lines. Among the four dead was a 20-year-old who was found by his father buried under the rubble still clutching a mobile phone, the Star reported. The search and rescue operation ended at 4.30pm today when the 500-strong team confirmed that there were no more victims buried in the landslide. (Soure: Malaysiakini)
Now that the search had ended, will the government seriously end all present and future hillside projects that have 'landslide potential'...oops the PM said no more hillside developments. Really ah?
