Awareness and involvement of downstream residents toward the mitigation plan of Dam failure: a case study of Klang Gate Dam

Dam planning development is important to provide water source to human and the environment. However, this development also poses a huge risk in the case of dam failure caused by natural disasters or operational failures. As part of the development of a dam, a mitigation plan should be provided to an...
