Anwar tells PAS minister not call Jerai landslides ‘act of God’, suggests logging to blame
KUALA LUMPUR, Sept 20 — Opposition Leader Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim criticised Natural Resources Minister Datuk Seri Takiyuddin Hassan today after the latter categorised recent landslides at Kedah’s Gunung Jerai as an “act of god”.
In Parliament this morning, Takiyuddin said so when responding to Jerai MP Sabri Azit who asked what remedial actions the federal government was taking to ensure the affected areas would be safe.
After Takiyuddin described the landslides as an “act of God”, Anwar interjected to tell the minister that such a response was unacceptable.
