Sime Darby welcomes govt action against violators

Sime Darby Plantation has come out in support of implementing legislation to punish those responsible for fires on their property, even if it is outside Malaysia.

This was in reaction to a statement by prime minister Dr Mahathir Mohamad that Malaysia has to consider new laws to curb the open burning that is believed to be directly responsible for the haze affecting Malaysia right now. "We will ask them to take action to put out the fires. But of course, if we find them unwilling to take action , we may have to pass a law to make those responsible for fires in their property, even if it is outside Malaysia," he said.
