COMMENT | Transparency needed for environment-related projects Modified2:56 am COMMENT | In early June, it was reported that the Pahang government had approved mining operations in the vicinity of Tasik Chini, Pekan, the second-largest natural lake in Peninsular Malaysia. The mining project, which covers the size of approximately 60 football fields, is located around 3km from the Unesco Biosphere Reserve site. Tasik Chini itself has also been plagued with pollution issues stemming from mining and logging in recent years. Recently, another mining project seeking approval from the Environment Department has come to light, this time in Jerantut, Pahang. The project site, which is in the middle of the Som Forest Reserve, covers an area the size of 113 football fields.
