It has been over a year since the first movement control order (MCO) came into force which resulted in restricted public activities. At Klang Valley, Klang River shows signs of improvement with less waste collected, more wildlife sightings. Landasan Lumayan Sdn Bhd’s (LLSB) Selangor Maritime Gateway (SMG) project which is responsible for the rehabilitation and rejuvenation of the river has seen less waste being collected from the river since the first MCO. River was producing less smell and was cleaner now. Monthly average collection of waste has gone down from 1,500 metric tonnes (MT) in 2016 to about 900MT now. Is MCO all that bad as we all think?
