Heavy rain cuts off access to Pos Balar

GUA MUSANG - Intense rainfall since yesterday afternoon has severed access to the Orang Asli settlement at Pos Balar, leaving vehicles stranded. JPKKOA chairman Hanan Anjang reported the collapse of the main road to the settlement near Kampung Enching around 8pm yesterday, after continuous rain began at 5pm. Anjang plans to visit Pos Balar today to evaluate the road's condition.

The road is the primary route to Pos Balar, and it joins a network of poorly maintained roads during the rainy season. Anjang highlighted the delay in resuming the Rural Connectivity Road project, which could improve access, expressing hope the authorities would address any contractor issues promptly.
