KUALA LUMPUR: The Ampang Jaya Municipal Council (MPAJ) has determined that a hole in the drainage infrastructure caused erosion, leading to the sinking of the ground floor corridor at the back of a unit in Block D of Flat PKNS Taman Keramat Permai by almost two meters.
In a statement, the municipal council said the finding was made following a visit by its Engineering, Building and Architecture Department team and Commissioner of Building to the location on Wednesday (Sept 4).
He said several other damages were identified, and MPAJ would carry out repair work to ensure the safety of residents. The repairs are expected to be completed within two weeks.
“The work to be carried out involves repairing the drainage and (clearing) sedimentation as well as repairing the floor structure,” read the statement on Thursday (Sept 5).
On Tuesday (Sept 3), Bernama reported that over 2,000 residents at the flat were gravely worried about soil settlement issues in the area. – Bernama
