BATU GAJAH, Dec 9 — The Jalan Simpang Pulai-Cameron Highlands is still closed to the public as authorities are still clearing debris from the landslide which occurred last week, Perak Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Saarani Mohamad said today.
Saarani said the authorities are taking extra caution as there is a risk of another landslide, which could double the cost of repairs.“We are not desperate to open the road as the road users can still use the Tapah road to head Cameron Highlands,” Saarani said. Back then, he said it might be partially reopened on December 9 if weather did not disrupt clearing work.
The victims identified as Muhammad Hafiz Hamdi, 31, from Tanjung Piandang in Kerian, who was driving a lorry carrying vegetable and Tan Chee Heng, 36, from Klang, Selangor, who was driving a MPV.
