    Residents in Beluran are facing a new threat - water pollution said to have stemmed from the discharge of toxic waste from palm oil mills. They claimed that the pollution problem had persisted since July when they discovered the colour of the water had turned blackish yellow. A local resident claimed that even if the water might look cleaner after a few months, there was still anxiety over a possible relapse.
