Environmental groups support stop-work order on S'gor GLC's agro park

The Coalition for the Protection of Selangor’s Forests has voiced support for a stop-work order issued against the Selangor State Agricultural Development Corporation (PKPS) for its project affecting nearly 1,000 hectares of peat swamp forest in Changkat Menteri, Sabak Bernam.

When contacted, coalition representative Faizal Parish urged PKPS to comply with the Department of Environment's stop-work order which was issued following the alleged failure of the state GLC to submit the project's Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report.
