STA'S ACTION AND PROPOSALS TO ADDRESS THE DESTRUCTION OF HEIGHT BARRIERS ALONG THE BAKUN AND MURUM PUBLIC ROADS
In the State Task Force on Illegal Logging Meeting No. 2/2015 held on 23 October 2015 chaired by YB Datuk Amar Haji Awang Tengah bin Ali Hasan, Second Minister of Resource Planning and Environment, STA was appointed to address the destruction of height barriers installed along the Bakun and Murum public roads by “phantom lorries”. With that appointment, STA initiated a ground study on the affected areas and discussed with the timber licensees and contractors using the Bakun and Murum public roads. All these timber licensees and contractors are very keen to clear the allegations that the timber companies are responsible for the destruction of the height barriers. Click here for more information.
