KUALA LUMPUR – Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah has ordered a swift investigation into the landslide incident at Kg Sg Penchala.
His Majesty said the Kuala Lumpur City Hall had informed him that some of the affected residents will be relocated to the Taman Beringin housing project here.
“My sympathies go out to the residents of Kg Sg Penchala,” said Al-Sultan Abdullah after visiting the landslide victims housed at SK Sg Penchala in Damansara today.
His Majesty urged individuals, non-governmental organisations, companies and the government to come forward to help those affected by floods and landslides following heavy rains that hit the country.
"All I can say is that I am deeply saddened and sympathise (with the victims). But we have to accept God’s tests. We must be patient. Those who are patient will receive their rewards later,” he said.
The King arrived with the Istana Negara convoy at the relief centre at about 2pm in a vehicle that he drove himself.
Upon arrival, he was greeted by Federal Territories Minister Datuk Seri Shahidan Kassim.
Al-Sultan Abdullah spent about an hour with the victims at the temporary relief centre and presented contributions to them.
On Sunday, a landslide occurred at Jalan Pelimbayan Indah in Kg Sg Penchala involving 94 houses and a total of 284 residents. – Bernama, December 24, 2021
