Follow health inspectors to ensure no hanky-panky

Star: KUALA LUMPUR: The next time a health officer checks your house for mosquito larvae, make sure you follow him when he makes his inspection round.
Health Minister Datuk Seri Dr Chua Soi Lek said his ministry recently received a complaint that an officer had planted larvae in the compound of a house in Klang.
“The resident provided proof that there was no larvae on his premises,” said Dr Chua.
When the officer was questioned, he admitted he had brought the larvae from the neighbouring area, the minister said.
“We have investigated the case and disciplinary action will be taken against the health officer,” he told a press conference yesterday.
Dr Chua reminded the public to be vigilant for mosquitoes breeding in their premises as the number of dengue cases in the Federal Territory and Selangor had doubled from 400 to 800 in the last three weeks.
“Please take care of the environment where you live and keep it clean so that mosquitoes cannot multiply,” he said.
