Yesterday, SelangorKini reported the edge of Sungai Kerayong in Taman Lembah Maju beside the teacher’s quarters of Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan (SMK) Pandan Indah collapsed and silt due to heavy currents.
The incident is believed due to the overflow of water in Taman Nirwana and Pandan Indah area following the heavy rain factor, recently.
However, MPAJ said in a statement yesterday summarily informed, the Drainage and Irrigation Department (JPS) has appointed a contractor to repair the slope.
