NGO pans 'most destructive' Malacca waterfront economic zone project
An NGO has reiterated its objection to the Straits of Melaka Waterfront Economic Zone (SM-WEZ) project, labelling it as 'unsustainable, environmentally devastating, and economically reckless'.
Referring to the project's environmental impact assessment (EIA) report, which covers a 2,766-acre (1,119.3ha) reclamation, Save Our Seashores Melaka (SOS Melaka) said the reclamation is the 'largest and most destructive' ever attempted in Malaysia's history.
