Putra Heights Pipeline Explosion: What Was Missed


Listen Later

It’s been a year since the Putra Heights pipeline explosion, a disaster that left hundreds of homes damaged and more than a hundred people injured. While an official investigation by the official Parliamentary Special Select Committee concluded there was no negligence, a new report titled “Putra Heights: One Year On, Unanswered Questions Remain” is raising questions about what may have been overlooked, particularly when it comes to planning, safety standards, and oversight. We explore those findings with the report's co-authors, Hamizah Shamsudeen, a Climate and Energy Campaigner at Greenpeace Malaysia, and Adam Farhan, the Co-Founder and Director at RimbaWatch.
