N Sembilan forest authority to address 'non-adherence' following complaints

The Negeri Sembilan Forest Management Unit (FMU) is currently rectifying “non-adherence” matters at Galla Forest Reserve in Nilai after complaints that alleged logging activities on the hill have impacted the nearby Orang Asli community’s water source, said Sirim QAS International.

While it did not explain the nature of the non-compliance, Sirim QAS management system certification department senior general manager Mohd Hamim Imam Mustain said the Negeri Sembilan FMU has been given a fixed timeline to address the matter and the mitigation process is underway.
