Landslides.

Landslides in Bukit Antarabangsa early yesterday morning leave 4 people dead and one person still missing. 14 bungalows destroyed, roads in the area cut-off. People living in a condominium need to be rescued & walk from the area via a jungle path, others still trapped with food and water running out. No doubt with the authorities in full swing to get to everybody no more lives would be lost, though many people would be much inconvenienced, lives disrupted and many would need to dig into their savings to continue living. The lessons of Highland Towers more than a decade ago and other similar incidence since were never learnt as pointed out by various quarters in the newspapers today. As one goes around nearby Taman Melawati today, hills are being scraped bald for yet another luxury bungalow project. They never learn. The developer, the authority, the people.
