Theme park operator told to explain roller-coaster incident
Subang Umno-BN chief Armand Azha Abu Hanifah says the theme park operator must explain what happened and how the victims were assisted.
A video showed a woman being carried down stairs on a stretcher at a Subang Jaya theme park. Ten people, aged 11 to 44, were injured in the roller-coaster incident around 9pm on Saturday. The riders included Malaysians and foreign tourists. They received treatment for minor injuries, with no fatalities reported.
Umno and Barisan Nasional's Subang division has asked the park operator to explain the incident and its response. The division's chief, Armand Azha Abu Hanifah, emphasized the importance of visitor safety, especially for children, families, and tourists. He demanded an official investigation into the ride's safety, maintenance, and adherence to procedures.
Armand called for an immediate halt to the roller-coaster's operation until its safety is verified. He also urged the investigation of any negligence or procedural breaches, regardless of the individuals involved. The division stressed that they seek to maintain public safety, protect victims' rights to redress, and ensure the public's right to know the truth, rather than suppressing information or concealing facts.
