Police Report Against Taib-Linked Coal Plant

Joseph Tawie
Despite complaints from the Iban community, the operators of the Mukah coal-fired power plant are yet to initiate efforts to mitigate the effects of erosion.
KUCHING: Angry villagers in the Rumah Bansan longhouse in Mukah have lodged a police report against the Mukah coal-fired power plant, which is linked to Chief Minister Taib Mahmud’s family- owned conglomerate Cahaya Mata Sarawak (CMS).
In their report, the Ibans in the 13-door longhouse claimed that sea water entering their rivers during high tide had caused severe erosion and destruction to their crops and properties.
