The 2 recent rock falls may be closely related. I observe that the higher rock fall's landing point is less than 100 meters from the starting point of the lower fallen rock. The first one may have shaken the second one loose! Home some engineers and surveyors can check that out. You won't realize the 2 rocks are related by walking on the winding path. But seen from the satellite, they is a nearly straight alignment of the 2 rocks.

Who ask them to buy the property, from the very beginning those apartment looked so dangerous, everyday I look at it, I fear for the residents, just wonder how in the world could anybody could buy a unit and stay there and never fearing for their life with or without any development at the foot hill/slope.

I will highlight this to relevant people. Just bank-in my pay check for my work, so I have no time to comment. Anyway in this case, I do not think LGE administration will do anything to stop (even to pause a while for proper evaluation) because for them, Development Above People. It is sad to be penangite under current development crazy government. Hello seage, I’m glad that you miss my comment and thus my comment will worth more value.

Of course, nothing happened and these flats were built. 20 years later, the residents whom are staying on the "flats on stilts" are protesting against development of houses below them on Solok Tan Jit Seng. Those whom are staying on hillslopes are now protesting against hillslope development!!!! Many of those who protested 20 years ago are now in another world and probably flipping in their respective graves!!! Hahaha……..I just burst out laughing!!!
