KUALA LUMPUR, April 21 -- Flooding that continues to plague residents in Selangor is unlikely to be resolved for another four years, as the state's flood mitigation projects remain ongoing and incomplete.

According to Kosmo! Online, State Infrastructure and Agriculture Exco Datuk Izham Hashim said river widening and deepening works are still underway and will take time before delivering a broader impact.

"This flooding issue cannot be resolved in a short period such as one or three months. The process of widening rivers and preparing design plans takes time and must comply with established procedures.

"So it cannot be completed quickly," he told a press conference at the Selangor State Legislative Assembly (DUN) lobby today.
