PETALING JAYA: The rationale for the degazettement of the Bukit Cerakah Forest Reserve (BCFR) is to complete the process that was pending in 2006, says the Selangor Forestry Department.

In a statement to The Star on Saturday , department director Datuk Ahmad Fadzil Abdul Majid said the Selangor government had taken appropriate measures to resolve matters that have been pending for more than 20 years.

SACF honorary treasurer Dr Teckwyn Lim had said the degazettement contravened Selangor forestry laws, which state that a public hearing must precede a degazettement, and that the state government had"excised" a big chunk of BCFR on May 5 this year. "The Selangor Forestry Department would like to clarify that the degazettement of the Bukit Cherakah Forest Reserve on May 5, 2022 was to complete the degazettement process which stopped around 2006.

Based on records, he explained that there had been a series of degazettements of BCFR that occurred between 1991 and 2006, including an area of 406.22ha.
