IPOH, November 27 — The Perak Forestry Department (JPNPk) will conduct an accident and disaster risk study for hiking areas to identify danger zones and preventive steps to be taken, following the death of a climber in Gunung Liang last month.

Perak Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Saarani Mohamad told the State Legislative Assembly today that the initiative will also explore the use of real-time monitoring systems for high-risk hiking sites.
