SHAH ALAM, April 29 — KDEB Waste Management (KDEBWM) is providing complimentary roll-on-roll-off (roro) bins in every lane and area affected by the gas pipeline explosion on April 1 in Putra Heights, Subang Jaya, until cleanups and repairs are completed.
KDEBWM managing director Dato’ Ramli Mohd Tahir said the company is committed to ease the burden of residents impacted by the incident, particularly to help offset the cost of recovery that affected residents have to bear.
“Clean-up activities are still ongoing under our supervision based on the waste generated by residents, especially those who are still making repairs to their homes.
“In Taman Putra Harmoni, we have placed 12 roro bins, while 10 more are located in Kampung Kuala Sungai Baru,” he said when met by reporters after the handover ceremony of Fuso trucks here today.
Ramli said so far, more than 1,000 tonnes of solid waste has been collected in the affected areas.
The April 1 blast destroyed 81 houses and damaged another 81.
A further 57 homes were affected, but were unburnt, while 218 houses, including those in Kampung Tengah, Puchong, were unaffected.
