Landslide tragedy: 4 killed, one missing


A massive landslide at 4am today buried 14 bungalows in Bukit Antarabangsa, Hulu Klang. So far, four bodies have been recovered with only one missing as at 8.30pm...(Picture and News courtesy of Malaysiakini)



Now Read this : PM: No more hillside developments : Bkt Antarabangsa tragedy: The PM says all state governments must play their role to prevent tragedies such as the one in Bukit Antarabangsa. ( From Malaysiakini)


Well, This is the cruncher..



Just four days to the 15th anniversary of the Highland Towers tragedy, disaster again struck early this morning in Bukit Antarabangsa when a landslide killed at least four people, seven missing, 15 injured, 14 bungalows destroyed and 4,000 people evacuated from the area.

Parliament, when it reconvenes on Wednesday, should have an urgent debate on why no lessons have been learnt from the 1993 Highland Towers Tragedy which claimed 48 lives when its Condominium Block 1 collapsed so as to prevent the recurrence of today’s tragedy.

I still remember vividly the harrowing presence of former Deputy Prime Minister, Tun Musa Hitam, when I visited the Highland Towers Condominium collapse site in Ulu Klang on the night of 11th December 1993, as he lost his son Rashid Carlos who together with his wife Rozita perished in the tragedy.

The Public Accounts Committee (PAC) should also initiate an urgent inquiry as to why the relevant government authorities have failed to learn past disasters and tragedies...( by YB Lim Kit Siang.)


So what do you think? Yap ! Pak Lah is talking as if President George Bush and his Republican Party has been governing this country for the past 51 years.. and Barisan Nasional has nothing to do with at all..

Asalamualaikum ,

inilah akibatnya mengacau dan membinasa alam semulajadi kurniaan Allah
yang sepatutnya di jaga dan di pelihara untuk kesejahteraan
manusia.

Pihak pemaju dan ahli politik sama sama untung.

Percayalah lepas 3 bulan semua kembali seperti biasa
dan akan di lupai sehingga berlaku kejadian yang tidak di ingini seterusnya.

Inilah Kerajaan Malaysia Boleh.

Ameeen.

BTW can we have a Fatwa banning Hillside development ?
