2 Months Deadline For Squatters To Quit

Kajang — the Selangor State Government has given about 7,000 squatters in Ulu Langat district two months to move out of state land. If they do not leave by June 1, action will be taken against them, State Secretary Datuk Alwi said today. The illegal houses have mushroomed since the 1974 general election. According to Datuk Alwi, the squatters have received support 'from certain groups'. He said the squatters were found in Kampung Padan, Ampang, Cheras, Kajang, Sungei Chua, Balakong and Semenyih.
