BALING: Work together and act swiftly in addressing landslides in Teloi Forest Reserve.

This is the message from Dewan Rakyat Senator Abd Nasir Idris to relevant authorities following the debris surge and flood that ravaged Kampung Teluk Rambong in Tanjung Pari here.

Nasir, who is also a former Bayu assemblyman said quick action to stabilise the collapsed slopes is imperative as there is a risk for a similar incident on Sept 30 to recur, due to current heavy rainfall in the area.

"The possibility for the incident to recur in this area is high. Thankfully, the recent incident did not involve casualties.

"However, if we fail to carry out studies and learn lessons from what happened here, we are worried that the thing that we fear the most (involving casualties) will happen. That is our concern," he said after visiting a house belonging to villager Mohd Naim Asri Baharom, 46, that was destroyed by the surging floods.

To mitigate the risks, Nasir called on the relevant authorities to get their act together and move swiftly, before another major disaster hit the village.

"Hence, I wish to call on the relevant government agencies involved in managing flood disasters, including the Drainage and Irrigation Department and the state Forestry Department to sit together and discuss," he said.

It was reported that Kampung Teluk Rambong was hit by the first debris surge and flood on Sept 30, destroying three bridges and forcing several families to be evacuated to a nearby temporary flood relief centre.

BALING: Agensi kerajaan berkaitan digesa mengambil tindakan segera bagi menangani masalah runtuhan tanah di Hutan Simpan Rimba Teloi, dekat sini, bagi mengelak kejadian banjir puing berulang di Kampung Teluk Rambong.

Ahli Dewan Negara, Abd Nasir Idris, berkata hujan berlarutan sejak dua minggu lalu dibimbangi meningkatkan risiko banjir puing, sekali gus boleh menyebabkan kerosakan harta benda dan kehilangan nyawa.

Katanya, perkara itu tidak boleh dipandang ringan dan tindakan segera perlu diambil bagi menstabilkan cerun yang runtuh supaya kejadian banjir yang membawa lumpur, pasir dan pokok tidak berulang.

"Kawasan-kawasan macam ni kita anggap kawasan yang kemungkinan akan berlaku semula (banjir puing) itu tinggi.

"Kali ni mungkin tak melibatkan nyawa manusia, tapi tak mustahil kalau kita tak tangani dan tak buat kajian atau pun tidak mengambil iktibar daripada perkara yang berlaku awal ini, satu hari nanti berlaku perkara yang kita tak ingini," katanya.

Beliau berkata demikian ketika ditemui selepas melawat rumah penduduk kampung Mohd Naim Asri Baharom, 46, yang musnah akibat banjir.

Abd Nasir yang juga bekas Ahli Dewan Undangan Negeri (ADUN) Bayu berkata agensi bencana serta Jabatan Pengairan dan Saliran (JPS), Jabatan Mineral dan Geosain (JMG) dan Jabatan Perhutanan Negeri Kedah (JPNK) perlu duduk semeja mengatasi masalah itu.

Sebelum ini 15 keluarga di Kampung Teluk Rambong terpaksa berpindah ke pusat pemindahan sementara (PPS) selepas rumah mereka dilanda banjir yang turut membawa lumpur, pasir dan kayu.

Tinjauan udara di kawasan bukit Lata Celak mendapati sekurang-kurangnya 10 lokasi tanah runtuh berlaku yang memberi kesan kepada penduduk di kaki bukit berkenaan.

Penduduk Kampung Teluk Rambong mendakwa terdapat aktiviti pembalakan di Hutan Simpan Rimba Teloi yang terletak di daerah Sik dan bersempadan kampung itu kira-kira 15 tahun lalu.

Bagaimanapun, JPNK menafikan dakwaan terdapatnya pembalakan di Bukit Lata Putih.

Pengarahnya, Muhamad Abdullah, berkata tanah itu milik persendirian dan bukan sebahagian seliaan JPNK
