Hidden menace in the junkyard

RESIDENTS of Serina Bay Apartments in Sungai Pinang, Penang, are all pumped up with frustration when they decided to speak out against a scrap metal dealer who has allegedly turned an empty plot of land into a scrap metal junkyard.

The empty space, which is located in Hilir Sungai Pinang, became a junkyard some three weeks ago and has since turned into a breeding ground for mosquitoes as well.

Resident K. Krishnan, 55, said there were not many mosquitoes even in the night throughout his three-year stay at the low-medium cost apartments but in recent weeks, he claimed that the situation had changed.

“We used to open our windows to enjoy the breeze but now, we have to close them because of the mosquitoes,” he said.

Krishnan, a postman, claimed lorries would come and dispose of their load of scrap metal at the empty lot from 9am until the evening.

Another resident Mohamad Amin Abdul Kadir said the junkyard was an eyesore and it could affect the health of the residents living there.

“It poses a danger to our residents here as it could become a breeding ground for the deadly Aedes mosquito.

“The value of our units would also be affected by the junkyard,” he said during a meeting with the residents of the apartments on Wednesday.

Sungai Pinang assemblyman Koid Teng Guan said he had brought up the matter at the northeast district action meeting.

He said a 30-day notice of evacuation had been issued by the Penang Municipal Council (MPPP) to the scrap metal company.

Initially, the representatives from the scrap metal company also attended the discussion with the residents but the former excused themselves upon seeing the media present.

The MPPP Public Relations Department (Housing) could not be reached for comment.

surrounding of residential areas.

Our concern now is how can a residential areas being develop as scrap 

junkyard business area as industrial activity.

If this business be allow run in this areas it will contribute health problems 

to us residence here , epidermic will be at risk as nearby residence here 

example our serinabay apartment , taman serina , menara riverview 

( westcort Building ).

We are all at risk of :

1. Dengue mosquito breading lairs
2. Fire disaster
3. Dust problems coming into our house , Air pollutions
4. Noise pollutions
5. factor that will bring down our house values in markets especially 

block A serinabay apartment Town view units.
