This was one of the issues stressed by Selangor Ruler Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah in his royal address at the opening of this year’s state legislative assembly sitting on Monday .

Sultan Sharafuddin also advised the state government to prioritise efforts to counter flooding and flash floods that were becoming rampant in Selangor. Given that the population of Selangor has reached more than 6.5 million with some areas having a high density of residents, the state government had to have a more effective future plan so that the people of Selangor would not be burdened by flooding, said the Ruler.

The Ruler said he hoped the Federal and state governments would put aside their political differences and work together to counter the flooding problem in the Klang Valley so that the people would not have to endure terrible suffering and trauma during the rainy season. "I truly hope the implementation of these projects will not create a consequence or terrible disasters that will adversely affect my people who would have to bear the long-term brunt if development projects are carried out haphazardly, carelessly without monitoring and control by the parties involved," said the Ruler.
