YOURSAY | Blaming God for disaster is a cop-out

When He made this world, He made it perfect. It was humans, with their greed for monetary gains, who damaged the environment.

Logging activities in the upper catchment were suspended three years ago, as you stated. But clear-felling has always been our method. Three years is not sufficient time for any regrowth to develop decent tree canopy or root systems to slow down or diminish water runoff. Gunung Jerai's problems were not compounded from recent logging but years of environmental destruction for various cash crops in the surrounding areas for rubber, fruit orchards and commune development, etc.

Coupled with the severe weather resulting from climate change, it's benign to say we have nothing to do with this.So Takiyuddin says, since no logging permits were issued, then logging didn't take place. And because you can see the roots of the uprooted trees, it was not logging but an act of God.

Of course that was Takiyuddin's God's work. But that was Takiyuddin's God's work to humiliate Takiyuddin's arrogant Kedah MB. That's the point.
