Chinese state media said on Sunday that personnel on a Philippine ship pointed guns at China's Coast Guard in disputed waters of the South China Sea last month.
KUALA LUMPUR: The decision to build an underground dam in Langkawi has been made following an intensive study conducted by Federal Government agencies, says Kedah Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Muhammad Sanusi Md Nor .
"Nahrim's study confirms that an underground dam can indeed be built in Langkawi because there are two hills, and only one section needs to be blocked to store water for use. He added that if successful, the underground dam project, based on a similar project in Japan, will be the first of its kind to be built in the country.
"This is a step towards preserving the sustainability and natural resources of the state. There are applications, but usually, the recent ones are not approved, even if they are from state government subsidiaries," he said.
