The “Protect Selangor Forests Coalition” is urging the state government to halt its plan to degazette 958ha of the Kuala Langat North Forest Reserve and consider the impact the move would have on the Orang Asli community, as well as the flora and fauna there.

The coalition, comprising several non-governmental organisations, held the gathering in Kampung Bukit Cheeding, Banting recently and said the state government was not provided adequate information about the forest.
