KOTA SAMARAHAN, Oct 28: Vehicles linked to illegal dumping near Taman Bukit Berangan have been traced, with compounds issued to those involved following a viral incident that drew public attention on Oct 6.

Kota Samarahan Municipal Council (MPKS) said it took enforcement action following public complaints, identifying the vehicles and issuing compounds to those responsible in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

“The landowner has also taken steps to clean up the affected area, while an unofficial access route used to enter the site has been closed to prevent further illegal dumping,” MPKS said in a statement shared on social media yesterday (Oct 27).

The council clarified that its regular waste collection service covers only domestic waste, excluding bulky items such as construction debris, furniture and industrial waste.
