A landslide early this morning in Genting Highlands, Malaysia, blocked a road, trapping actress Trisha Ooi and her production crew. The incident occurred outside Resorts World Genting (RWG) along Jalan Ion Delemen, a secondary road. The resort assured that their guests and staff are safe and operations remain unaffected. Roads in these mountainous regions are prone to landslides during the monsoon season.
A landslide occurred in Genting Highlands early this morning at 2:30 am outside Resorts World Genting (RWG). The incident happened along Jalan Ion Delemen, a secondary road, and did not affect the main road connecting the highlands and Genting Sempah. A spokesperson from the resort confirmed that their emergency response teams were immediately deployed to assist in managing the situation.
They are working closely with the police and the fire and rescue department to ensure a coordinated response. \The spokesperson emphasized that the safety and well-being of all individuals affected remain their top priority. They assured the public that guests and staff within RWG are safe, and the resort's operations remain unaffected and fully accessible via the main road, Jalan Genting Highlands. \Actress Trisha Ooi, who was in Genting Highlands with her production crew for filming, captured the incident in a video shared on her Instagram account. They had planned to proceed to Janda Baik, Pahang, for filming the next day, but the landslide blocked their path. Trisha explained that they had been traveling between Genting Highlands and Janda Baik for a few days prior. She expressed their predicament in an Insta Story, highlighting the severity of the road blockage caused by the landslide. The road was covered in soil, making it impassable. She appealed for prayers, stating they were unable to leave Genting Highlands until the site was cleared. \Landslides are common occurrences in mountainous regions like Genting Highlands, particularly during the monsoon season due to heavy rainfall and soil erosion. Roads leading to popular hill stations like Genting Highlands, Janda Baik, Fraser's Hill, and Cameron Highlands face heightened risks during this period.
