We are sitting on ground above and within cavities and ground water table formation.

Movements, mech vibrations, boring, density, velocity, disturbed ground water table can cause ground movement thus displacment, shift, cave in etc

so i'm not the only one who immediately felt unease with such blatant promise.

Near the exsim apartment junction there also got sinkhole. Basically old klang road is just a time bomb for bad thing to be happened. Try to avoid using that road back home

You are civil injiner??

Happen everywhere IMO...

This has MH370 vibes now.

DBKL said could be trap under sewer trap , that why they call IWK to open the man hole to see if any body stuck there. If cant find means... probably wash very super far

That Kuchai road is a fark up. Probably some major pipes underneath causing it

no update?

Call off sewer search for woman in sinkhole incident, says expert


KUALA LUMPUR: The authorities have been urged to call off the search for a woman who fell into an 8m-deep sinkhole in Jalan Masjid India here, as the operation enters its third day with no sign of the victim.

G Parameswaran, a wastewater engineer, said the woman must be presumed dead given the high speed at which the sewer lines flow.

He explained that the large, 1.5m-wide sewer lines in central Kuala Lumpur likely carried the body through multiple sections over the past three days.

These sewer lines have a minimum flow speed of 1m per second. Theoretically, the body could have travelled up to 86.4km within 24 hours, he told FMT.

There is little point in continuing the search at this stage. We must now assume the worst, and the focus should shift to the Pantai 2 sewage treatment plant, where the body could eventually end up, he said.

Parameswaran, who also serves as president of the Malaysian Water and Wastewater Quality Safety Association, warned that the body might have decomposed rapidly in the harsh sewer environment.

Given the strong currents and numerous junctions in the sewer system, there is also the possibility the body could have been dismembered, with body parts flowing in different directions, he said.

Rescuers have spent three days opening manholes along the suspected path, but have found no trace of the woman.

The complex sewer network, coupled with hazardous conditions, has made the search particularly challenging.

Indah Water Konsortium chief executive officer Narendran Maniam reportedly said it was possible that the victim had been washed away and could be stuck at one of the inter-pump stations.

To date, rescuers have found only a pair of slippers belonging to the victim.

Vijayaletchumy, 48, of Andhra Pradesh, India, was walking with her family on Jalan Masjid India when she fell into a sinkhole that suddenly opened beneath her at 8.20am on Friday.

call off means stop the search operation?

Yes

Damn imagine dropping in sewer and body tearing up, like worse than final destination...

>Call off sewer search for woman in sinkhole incident, says expert

it is suggestion from expert, not sure DBKL Bomba IWK will listen or not

The sewer line she fell into will end up in Pantai Dalam pumping station where Bomba has been seen observing it..

Working in oil and gas industry i remember one of top geologist in my company once said 8 years ago.

"Sapa2 geologist or reservoir engineers yg beli rumah dekat selayang and batu caves is stupid. Carbonate bedding wise, the distance of ground surface and top of carbonate over there is one of the closest distance around klang valley"

Basically acid rain will dissolve carbonate especially limestone and its just disaster waiting to happen.

I agree with this guy. The authorities will also agree honestly but they cannot show to give up so early on. When the K9 fail to pick up her scent on the scene the first night already indicates she fell into the sewer line already. In which case she is very very unlikely to still be alive.

Actual this incident salah siapa?

How could it is so serious now until cannot allocate the victim?

Put GPS locator and/or pinger that can be detected at the surface in a watertight container and drop into the hole where she is suspected to have entered the 1.5m diamater sewer pipe.

Drop 10 of those and see where they end up?
