A river of muddy water triggered by heavy downpours, flowed down from a construction site of a 15 storey development in Fraser's Hill, flooding a popular recreational lake which lies downhill from the site. This incident has further alarmed residents, who were already against the scale of the new development, as they warned it could trigger major soil movement in the area and cause environmental damage. We find out what's happening up in Fraser's Hill from Persatuan Alam dan Warisan Bukit Fraser.
