The minister points out that the authorities are collecting data to find out the cause.

The government does not require any external expertise to assist in identifying the cause of health problems that have been affecting students in Pasir Gudang since last Thursday.

Yeo was commenting on news reports on proposals that the government sought foreign assistance said to have more sophisticated expertise or technology to help detect the cause of health problems in the area. The discussion is important as Pasir Gudang is an industrial zone and the development of the area is deemed as unsustainable.
