KUALA LUMPUR, Jan 20 — Preliminary reports from an ongoing investigation into the landslide in The Father’s Organic Farm campsite along the Batang Kali-Genting Highlands road showed that the affected campsite was not on land zoned for agricultural, commercial, or recreational use.
According to the VOA website, an unnamed representative from the Natural Resources, Environment and Climate Change Ministry said the campsite was instead located in a prohibited zone. “The area of which Father’s Organic Farm was built had been determined as a No-Go Area. Therefore, the development of Father’s Organic Farm was in violation of the approval conditions of the EIA report approved to Malaysia Botanical Gardens Resort Sdn. Bhd,” the representative was quoted as saying.
The tragic landslide that struck at 2.42am on December 16 killed 31 people including 18 adults, and 13 children. The remaining 61 victims out of 92 reported victims survived. On December 27, Selangor police chief Arjunaidi Mohamed said investigations were at 90 per cent completion. Until today, no charges have been filed.Advertisement
