A one-day workshop to teach communities on how to monitor slopes as a visual inspection and early warning of the signs of landslides.  This program was created in response to the communities’ request for a warning system against slope failures in the area.  While early warning systems depend heavily on public sector investment, a visual inspection system for signs of landslide has been proven effective in other areas of Selangor.

Morning Session: The Department of Mineral and Geoscience on geology of the Hulu Langat area and why it was prone to landslides and by the Public Works Department on the causes of landslides and basic knowledge about slopes.

Afternoon Session: Participants divided into groups and headed out to two sites in Batu 14 for visual inspection.  At the sites, the government agencies gave briefing on factors that lead to slope failure.
