: The estimated cost of repairing the burst bunds in 12 areas in Bagan Datuk is at least RM10 million for each damaged structure, according to Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi.
“There are 12 areas in Bagan Datuk with burst bunds, and repairing them requires a significant cost. Although I had earlier announced repairs for two of the bunds, the other 10 will need at least RM10 million each for repairs and upgrades. Ahmad Zahid, also the Minister of Rural and Regional Development, said this after officiating the closing ceremony of the ‘Malaysia MADANI, UNISEL Depani’ Open Day tour and Kelapa Fest Bagan Datuk 2024 at Dataran Waterfront Bagan Datuk here today.
He added that Bagan Datuk, located below sea level, is prone to sea water overflow that may cause damage to flood mitigation areas and bunds during heavy rain and high tides.
