TANAH MERAH, 21 JULY 2026 (TUESDAY) — The Land and Mines Office (PTG) together with various enforcement agencies including PTJTM, MDTM, MKN, PDRM, TNB, AKSB, JKR and JIM carried out an Integrated Operation to demolish unauthorized buildings and structures on land owned by the Kelantan Land Commissioner (PTK) in Pechong, Mukim Bandar Tanah Merah, here today.

The operation, which began at 10.30 am, was led by PTG and PTJTM following the actions of irresponsible parties who encroached on government land and erected illegal structures which were subsequently rented to Rohingya foreign nationals.
