Sungai Korbu, the water source for about 70,000 Sungai Siput folks turned muddy. The recent storms have washed down earth from the surrounding high land and trees. This is the caused of the logging activity and the construction of a mini-hydro in the Korbu Forest Reserve. A thousand acres of the forest have been cleared.
Those Orang Asli villages along the Sungai Korbu are most affected. They have to use stinking and muddy water.
Other than JAS Perak, the Orang Asli have complained to the MB, Forestry Dept., MACC and police too. Unfortunately no actions from these authorities yet.
