Selangor Menteri Besar Datuk Seri Amirudin Shari said the decision will be reached in a special meeting involving state government representatives, WCE, and relevant ministries to address various outstanding issues, particularly concerning residents who have yet to relocate.
“The meeting will be held on November 3 to review the latest developments of the project, including several technical issues and misunderstandings that have arisen among residents in the affected area.
“After that final meeting, we will have a definitive decision, with several technical issues and misunderstandings already identified and currently being remedied,” he told reporters after opening the Selangor Heritage Food Festival 2025 here today.
The event, held at the Kuala Selangor Sports Complex Indoor Stadium, was also attended by State Housing and Culture Committee chairman Datuk Borhan Aman Shah, State Rural Development, Unity and Consumer Affairs Committee chairman Datuk Rizam Ismail, and State Secretary Datuk Dr Ahmad Fadzli Ahmad Tajuddin.
Amirudin said the state government remains committed to ensuring the WCE project is fully completed without compromising the rights and interests of the affected residents.
“The state government stands firm in its commitment to resolving this matter in the best possible manner. We have informed WCE and also held discussions with the relevant ministries to ensure that justice is served to all parties involved.
“We want everyone to understand that the state government is not neglecting residents’ complaints, but is instead ensuring that every decision is made comprehensively and responsibly,” he said.
He added that most of the misunderstandings that had previously arisen stemmed from technical issues and miscommunication among the involved parties, which are now being addressed.
The WCE construction issue in Kampung Jawa has drawn public attention after reports emerged that 19 residents refused to relocate, even though most of the land acquisition process had been completed by the authorities.
The WCE project, which connects Banting, Selangor, to Taiping, Perak, is one of the strategic infrastructure projects under the First Selangor Plan (RS-1) aimed at strengthening transportation and logistics networks along the west coast of Peninsular Malaysia.
However, several stretches of the expressway in Selangor have reportedly faced land acquisition and technical adjustment issues, leading to construction delays and complaints from residents in the affected areas. — Bernama
