JOHOR BARU, Aug 3 — The Johor Department of Environment will continue its operations for another week to identify the source of the noxious odour detected at SK Sungai Tiram and Sekolah Agama Ulu Tiram.

“All the six factories that DoE inspected earlier were proper facilities and not operating illegally. On those affected by the odour on Tuesday and Wednesday, Raven Kumar said this was now 39 people, including 23 students, two teachers, two canteen workers, and a clerk from the two schools on the first day.

Raven Kumar said authorities viewed environmental pollution seriously, and had ordered an illegal palm oil storage facility on Tuesday after it was detected as part of the operation.
