Pengusaha tapak perkhemahan Father’s Organic Farm (FoF) menjelaskan kejadian tanah runtuh yang mengorbankan 24 nyawa setakat ini bukan berpunca di tapak perkhemahan mereka.

Sebaliknya, jurucakap tapak perkhemahan Father’s Organic Farm, Frankie Tan berkata, tanah runtuh itu tanah kerajaan dan di tepi jalan yang jaraknya antara 2 kilometer (km) 3 km dari tapak mereka.

“Saya ingin menjelaskan tanah runtuh bukan bermula di tapak perkhemahan kami tetapi di tanah kerajaan dan di tepi jalan yang jaraknya antara 2 kilometer (km) 3 km dari tapak kami,” katanya dalam sidang akhbar semalam.

Mengulas mengenai lesen, Tan berkata, pihaknya tidak dapat membuat permohonan bagi mendapatkan lesen perkhemahan kerana permit sedemikian tidak pernah wujud.

Katanya, perkara itu dimaklumkan oleh pelbagai agensi kerajaan termasuk Jabatan Pertanian bahawa tiada lesen seumpama itu boleh dipohon oleh pengusaha tapak perkhemahan.

“Saya pernah bertanya kepada pegawai kerajaan sama ada kami perlu memohon lesen tapak perkhemahan atau tidak. Pegawai itu berkata tiada permit kerana tapak perkhemahan ini bukan struktur kekal seperti hotel, justeru tiada lesen untuk dipohon.

“Bukannya kami tidak mahu membuat permohonan tetapi memang tidak ada cara untuk kami memohon,” katanya.

Dalam tragedi pukul 2.42 pagi pada Jumaat lalu, berlaku runtuhan tanah sepanjang hampir 300 meter dan setinggi 70 meter di tapak perkhemahan yang terletak di Jalan Batang Kali-Genting Highland itu.

Seramai 24 mangsa disahkan terkorban daripada keseluruhan 94 orang yang terbabit dalam tragedi itu manakala, sembilan mangsa lagi masih hilang dan sehingga kini, operasi Mencari dan Menyelamat (SAR) masih dijalankan.

Pihak pengurusan Father’s Organic Farm telah memberi keterangan kepada polis pada Ahad lalu dan turut mengucapkan takziah kepada semua waris mangsa yang terlibat dalam kejadian tanah runtuh yang berlaku di bawah kawasan seliaan mereka.

Father’s Organic Farm dalam satu kenyataan di Facebooknya melahirkan rasa dukacita dan simpatinya terhadap semua mangsa dan waris yang terkesan akibat tragedi berkenaan.

Dalam pada itu, Tan turut mendakwa bahawa pihaknya tidak menyedari bahawa kawasan berkenaan diklasifikasikan sebagai berisiko tinggi selain bermula sebagai ladang organik sebelum menyediakan perkhidmatan perkhemahan pada 2017 atas permintaan pengunjung. – UTUSAN

opening a can full of worms in 3.. 2.. 1..

Abuden his land is under the slope

Unless got antigravity then it is not possible to origin from his land


But then, due deligent before setup a campsite where? Hantam ja?

ok...it govt wrong...

so customers sendiri chose to go camping at unsafe place that is likely to have accident...

Stupid choice if word to say tanah kerajaan.

Translation: No permit to have camping but we still wanna make money from our land.

$$$$$

If you come stay and pay us, you bear all the risk.

PS: Many durian farms also offering farmstay.

Mati katak?

now all point finger, malaysia culture, this kind of disaster nobody want and nobody can predict, just look at the future where this thing can be prevent

if no licenses then need to start provide and inspection on all the camp site checking for potential risk

landslide its not a joke but geologist can predict and alert on risk due to raining season or landscape changing enviroments

8 months ago already have soil movements, how to explain this?

Taichiii

come dah with all the technicality

if they applied for license

need to go through all those safety check

eventually will find the place not safe for camping

so conclusion still owner fault

should jail this cb

Not defending them but there is no such thing as license for campsite in Malaysia.

yes no business license, coz really, not intend to do a "accommodation" business on piece of farm land..

next time, factory operator also let people short stay in the factory la. when shit happens, say not that they dun want apply for permit or license, but no such license available..

hkorek2 bawah of course tanah atas runtuh

Frankie Tan, the operator of Father’s Organic Farm has reiterated that he will not absolve himself of responsibility although the Batang Kali landslide did not happen within the farm.

In a press conference, he first expressed deep sorrow for the victims and their families, adding that he would assist them in whatever way possible.

As for the Batang Kali tragedy which occurred last week, he told reporters that he would not avoid responsibility.

"As an operator of the campsite, we would like to say that we won’t shirk our responsibilities."

“However, the landslide did not happen within our campsite but on another piece of land.

No way to obtain permit then why still want to operating the business?

Bottomline is wanna make more money. Apa susah?

Later when kena sue by the victims, the lawyer will say the same thing.

After that, sue the majlis for lack of enforcement.

In the end, kena the operator back when pics of soil movement were shown in court as evidence that 8 months ago already started to happen.

Those want to plotek the operator better take down all the soil movement pics from 8 months ago circulating online.
