JOHOR BAHRU: Johor Sultan Ibrahim Iskandar has described the latest pollution incident in Pasir Gudang, which resulted in more than 700 people seeking medical treatment, as “despicable and a total disgrace”. In a hard-hitting interview published by the Star on Friday (Jun 28), the royal said he would be summoning state leaders and federal bodies to account for the incident.
“We were assured that all was all right (after the Sungai Kim Kim incident in March) and we heard the politicians and officials issuing us assurances but barely three months later, the people of Johor are faced with this issue again,” he said.
“This is despicable and a total disgrace.”
