KUALA KRAI: Frequent heavy rainfall and soil erosion have contributed to Lata Y waterfall’s muddy and murky condition (

He said based on JPNK’s checks and investigation, it was found that Lata Y waterfall turned murky and muddy due to heavy rainfall upstream which caused soil erosion, as well as forestry activities.
Abdul Khalim was commenting on pictures of murky Lata Y waterfall which went viral after being uploaded on the ‘Kuala Krai Kini’ Facebook account on June 1, claiming that the once pristine waterfall was polluted due to logging activities in the Sungai Rek Forest Reserve, Kuala Krai.
