Govt to build more reservoirs as part of flood mitigation plans - Fadillah Yusof

KUALA LUMPUR: The government plans to build more reservoirs as part of its short and long-term flood mitigation plans, said Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof. He said the new reservoirs would reduce the risk of flash floods especially in Kuala Lumpur. “The plan is already in place. It’s just that we plan according to the available financial capabilities and we implement what we have as much as possible,“ he told reporters after the Asia New Economic Summit 2024 here today. Fadillah, who is also the Minister of Energy Transition and Water Transformation, said most of the water reservoirs will be built in Kuala Lumpur under the supervision of the Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL). “There are ongoing projects. But there is one project involving design and contractor problems and this affects our planning. We have to see how our recovery plan is to speed up any project that is delayed due to contractor failure,“ he said. An unusually high and continuous rainfall from 8.30 am this morning in Kuala Lumpur caused major rivers, including Sungai Batu, Sungai Klang, and Sungai Gombak, to overflow, which led to flooding in several areas. According to DBKL today, 60mm of rain was recorded during this time, which was well above average.

Kelana Jaya LRT route disruption: Rapid Rail restoring service

KUALA LUMPUR: Repair works are being carried out following a service disruption on the Kelana Jaya LRT Line, involving the track between Wangsa Maju and Sri Rampai Stations, which was caused by an unusual flow of rainwater that damaged several track components, said Rapid Rail Sdn Bhd (Rapid Rail). Rapid Rail as the operator of the Rapid KL rail service in a statement said that the incident occurred at 10.20 am which forced the operation to stop the power supply in the area involved to allow inspection and repair work to be carried out. “Repair works are being actively carried out by Rapid Rail’s technical team to ensure that services can be restored soon,“ according to the statement. For now, a feeder service has been activated between Gombak Station and Wangsa Maju Station. Trains from the direction of Putra Heights will turn back at Wangsa Maju Station. A total of 12 free feeder buses at a frequency of every 15 minutes are operating to ensure that passengers can continue their journey. “We hope that this repair work can be completed before the evening peak hour,“ said Rapid Rail. In addition, operation staff and auxiliary police personnel have been stationed at the stations involved to help facilitate the movement of affected passengers. Continuous announcements on the development of service status will be delivered through Rapid KL’s social media, at all stations, and on trains. Rapid Rail also informed that the latest development of service status will be announced at 3 pm. “Passengers are advised to plan their journeys and refer to Rapid KL’s social media to get the latest information on the service status of the Kelana Jaya LRT Line,“ said the statement. For more information, the public can contact Rapid Rail’s communications officer, Noor Natasha Mohd Irwan at 013-332 2900. Several roads in Kuala Lumpur were flooded following the continuous heavy rain that started at about 9 this morning.

12,519 cases under Weights and Measures Act recorded as of September - KPDN

SHAH ALAM: A total of 12,519 cases involving offences under the Weights and Measures Act (ATS) 1972 were recorded by the enforcement division of the Ministry of Domestic Trade and Cost of Living (KPDN) nationwide from 2020 to September this year. KPDN deputy-director of Enforcement (Prevention) Aris Mamat said the statistics reflected the ministry’s ongoing and proactive efforts to ensure that traders adhered to the integrity of weights and measures in buying and selling for the benefit of consumers. “KPDN is committed to protecting consumers and consistently ensuring that traders adhere to established standards. Those found to have committed irregularities or non-compliance will not evade strict enforcement actions. “A violation of the provisions under the ATS 1972 could result in a maximum fine of RM40,000, imprisonment for up to three years, or both, and the court may also order the forfeiture of the weighing instrument,” he said today. He said this after heading a team of 20 KPDN enforcement officers to perform spot checks at three petrol stations around Kuala Selangor to ensure that the fuel charged to consumers matched the amount supplied through pump dispensers. Elaborating, Aris said that the ATS 1972 enforcement compliance inspections at petrol stations led to actions against the misuse of subsidised diesel fuel under Ops Tiris, resulting in the seizure of diesel valued at approximately RM16.5 million from January to September this year. “This brings the total amount of diesel seized from 2020 to 2024 to RM52.68 million,” he said. Commenting on today’s operation, Aris said that it focused on several key aspects, including the accuracy of oil pumps and meters, testing the volume of fuel dispensed, and reviewing the maintenance records of weighing and measuring equipment. He added that checks revealed all the petrol stations involved complied with the weighing and measuring regulations set. “Regarding the enforcement actions under the ATS 1972 in Selangor, we recorded a total of 283 cases from January to September last year, with confiscated items amounting to RM2.6 million,” he said.

Court sets Nov 26 for mention of travel agency manager charged with attempting to kill wife at KLIA

SEPANG: The Sessions Court here today set Nov 26 for mention of a case involving a travel agency manager charged with attempting to murder his wife and causing severe injuries to her bodyguard. Judge Amir Affendy Hamzah set the date after lawyer Nik Azim Azlan, representing Hafizul Hawari, 38, requested a date for the defence to examine the documents including the chemical report submitted by the prosecution. On April 25 this year, Hafizul was charged with attempting to murder his wife, Farah Md Isa, 38, at the Arrival Hall, Level 3, Terminal 1, Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) at 1.09 am on April 14. He was charged under Section 307 of the Penal Code, which carries a maximum imprisonment of 10 years and a fine, upon conviction. If the act causes injuries, the jail term may be extended to 20 years. He is also charged with voluntarily causing grievous hurt to his wife’s bodyguard, Mohd Nur Hadith Zaini, 38, with a firearm that could have caused death, at the same location, date, and time. The charge, framed under Section 326 of the Penal Code, provides a maximum imprisonment of 20 years, a fine or whipping, upon conviction.

Skills-related underemployment shows declining trend

KUALA LUMPUR: The skills-related underemployment (SRU) rate has continued to fall in line with improvements in the country’s education level, said Deputy Economy Minister Datuk Hanifah Hajar Taib. SRU is defined as tertiary-educated individuals working in semi-skilled and low-skilled jobs. Hanifah said the SRU rate stood at 37% in the second quarter of 2024, in line with high-income nations such as South Korea (38%), Australia (32%), the United Kingdom (28%), and the United States (30%). “The underemployment rate of STPM holders is 55.8%, while for degree holders, the rate is lower at 26.9%,” she said during the question-and-answer session in the Dewan Rakyat today. She was responding to a supplementary question from Datuk Mohd Shahar Abdullah (BN-Paya Besar) on the government’s efforts to address the mismatch between labour supply and demand, particularly among graduates with a cumulative grade point average (CGPA) of 3.5 and above who qualify for jobs in high-growth sectors. Hanifah explained that the government is actively trying to boost investments in key sectors to create more high-skilled jobs, with initiatives such as the KL20 Action Plan, the National Energy Transition Roadmap, and the New Industrial Master Plan 2030. “These measures will ensure that the country’s economy does not only rely on (just providing) low tax rates but also can meet the demand for high-quality jobs,” she said. Hanifah also emphasised the government’s commitment to developing a comprehensive ecosystem that encourages skilled workers abroad to return home, such as from Singapore where the cost of living is rising. “If the cost of living in Singapore becomes too high, skilled workers might consider returning to Malaysia, where the job ecosystem and quality of life better suit their needs,“ she noted. She added that the government is ready to strengthen upskilling and reskilling initiatives to ensure the workforce meets the needs of high-value and high-growth industries.

Over 150 drug-smuggling bases detected along Sungai Golok - Bukit Aman

Over 150 drug-smuggling bases detected along Sungai Golok - Bukit Aman

KOTA BHARU: Police have detected 172 illegal bases related to drug smuggling along Sungai Golok on the Malaysia-Thailand border in Kelantan. Bukit Aman’s Narcotics Criminal Investigation Department (NCID) director Datuk Seri Khaw Kok Chin said the illegal bases were spread out across four districts - Tumpat, Pasir Mas, Tanah Merah and Jeli. He said the numbers fluctuate but the Pasir Mas and Tumpat districts recorded the highest and most active number of illegal bases. “For example, if we focus on the illegal bases in this area (Pasir Mas and Tumpat) and close them, the syndicate members will open other illegal bases,“ he said at a press conference at the Kelantan police contingent headquarters here today. Khaw said police are focusing on the ‘hotspot’ areas of Pasir Mas and Tumpat as the two districts share borders with Thailand. He said police would tighten border controls to prevent drugs from entering the country. Asked about the Fentanyl opioid, he said none has been detected in the country so far. “Intelligence from NCID and information also indicate that this drug does not exist in the country, and there have been no seizures to date,“ he said.

National Strategic Plan addresses child malnutrition with comprehensive approach

KUALA LUMPUR: KUALA LUMPUR: The 2022-2030 National Strategic Plan to Combat the Double Burden of Malnutrition Among Children in Malaysia will ensure a more comprehensive approach to addressing issues such as stunting and obesity, said Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Dzulkefly Ahmad. He expressed hope that the plan would expedite efforts to tackle child malnutrition in order to build a healthy nation and nurture healthy Malaysians from a young age. Dzulkefly said the plan, encompassing five core strategies and 31 initiatives, took into account the functions and policies of all ministries and agencies while emphasising the involvement of various parties and the strengthening of existing strategies through cross-cutting approaches. “The plan prioritises strengthening the governance of nutritional well-being through legislation, political commitment, and stakeholder involvement, while also improving the quality and accessibility of nutritional services and creating a more conducive society. “Efforts to strengthen capacity development and human capital for the well-being of children’s nutrition, along with the synergy of child nutrition advocacy, are also emphasised,” he said during the oral question and answer session at Dewan Rakyat today. Dzulkefly said this in response to a question from Datuk Dr Alias Razak (PN-Kuala Nerus) regarding the ministry’s plan to create a master document, such as the Child Nutrition Action Plan, to address the issue of child nutrition. He said the plan aimed to have a specific impact on children, teenagers, women of reproductive age, and vulnerable groups, designed to mobilise energy effectively among all stakeholders in the implementation of strategies, programmes, and outlined activities. “One of the efforts being strengthened is the initiative to support the first 1,000 days of a child’s life, beginning with the first day of pregnancy and lasting until the child is two years old,” he said. Dzulkefly said among the activities conducted were engagement and advocacy sessions for private pharmacies and health clinics to facilitate early screenings. He said that this included conducting blood haemoglobin tests for women and pregnant mothers to reduce the risk of pregnancy complications, enabling them to plan for a healthy pregnancy.
