KUALALUMPUR: The Energy Com-mission, Tenaga Nasional Berhad(TNB) and the Subang Jaya Munic-ipal COlffiCil(MPSJ) are jointly inves-tigating the death of an ll-year-oldboy from electrocution last Satmday.

In the incident, the boy died aftertouching a lamp-post in Taman BatuTiga, Shah Alam.

"They are trying to determine thesomce ofthe power that electrocutedthe boy," a TNB spokesman said.

MPSJ Public Relations Departmentsenior assistant director AzfarizalAbd Rashid said investigations wereeJ.:pected to be concluded by the endofthis week.

"I can't conm1ent further right nowas investigations are ongoing."

Muhammad Naqiuddin MohdMarzuki was playing football with hisfiiends at a playground at 6.50pmwhen he' fell and sh'uck one of thelamp-posts there. .

The Year Five pupil of Sekolal1 Ke-bangsaan Seksyen 20 lost conscious-ness and was rushed to ,a privatehospital by his father and neigh-boms. Doctors tried for an hom torevive the boy but failed.

The post-mortem result confirmedthat Naqiuddin had died from elec-trocution.

It was repjrted yesterday that MP-SJ cOlJncH member KeshminderSingWsaid initial investigations con-ducted by the council found thatthere was nothing wrong with thelamp-post.

He said one of the possible causescould be a power leakage in the un-dergroID1d cable.

Meanwhile, the victim's father,Mohd Marzuki Muda, 44, said hisfamily had yet to decide on whetherto tal(e legal action against those re-sponsible.

"Wejust gave my son a proper bmi-al last night and my family has notdiscussed about the next comse ofaction. I hope that those responsiblefor tl1eincident will own up."

Illegal dumping by riverbank irks residents.",<;,~\\?.,..

By CHOO WOON LlM\'iC''''''"';/'\f.;om,J)T "

RESIDENTSand factory operatorsof Kampung lembah Kinrara,Puchong, met the local MCAdivi-sion chairman Wong Hock Aunrecently to highlight a few issuesaffecting them.

One of the issues was aboutrubbish thrown on the banks ofthe KlangRiver,near the KampungLembah Kinrara industrial area.

There are about 30 factories,including warehouses and furni-ture factories in the area.

A factory manager, Pang GoFatt, 60, said since they tarred thedirt road near the river, the prob-lem of rubbish dumping hasincreased.

"Factory operators forked outmoney to beautify the river banks.Apart from tarring the dirt road,we also planted shrubs and treesby the river.

"But for the past two years,outsiders have been dumpingwaste and construction materialat the site," Pang said.

.

Rubbish nightmare: Factory operators and Wong (second fromright) inspecting the garbage dump by the riverbank at the Kinraraindustrial area: '

lip the waste, but the situation isgetting worse. '

Wong hoped that the 5ubang, jaya MunicipalCouncil (MP5j)

would look into the matter and

He claimed,the culprits came atnight in lorries,judging from theamount of rubbish deposited.

So far, the factory operatorshave been hiring people to clean

clear up the rubbish.'The authorities should have

night patrols to apprehend theculprits," he said.

Another issue highlighted wasthe access road to Kampunglembah Kinrara and its surround-ing areas, such as jalan Tiong, '

Impiana Hcightsand KoiKinrara.Now,there was onlyone access

road, which was through jalanPipit in Puchongjaya.

Wong said the traffic conges-tjon was serious especiallyduringpeak hours, as there were twoschoolsin the area; SMKPuchongjaya (A)and SKpuchongJaya(2).

"With the number of.houses,shops and factories in lembahKinrara,one access road will notbe enough.

"It will be difficultifany emer-gencyoccurs,"he said,addingthatMP5j should provide alternativeroads out to the Kesas and LOPhighways:

Wong said he hoped,the rele-vant authorities would look intoboth issues.

MOTORISTS who drivethrough Jalan Masjid,PJU6A, Petaling Jaya, on adaily basis, can certainlyrelate to this infamous pot-hole.

Too many times the resi-dents there have seen cars,or some parts of them, get'eaten up' by this deeppothole that is more thana foot wide.

"It's worse for me as mycar is slightly lowered. It'sokay in the daytime and I '
