    It is high time that some Government Institution investigated this problem. May be they cannot identify the ministry responsible for such investigation.

    Hope this would be a permanent solution or else let research team in earth sciences be assigned to investigate the real problem here....

    SW is right. A new Minister should be appointed to investigate and write reports. After all this has taken almost two years to commence repair.

    Like I said before, this sink hole will never be repaired properly because it is money spinner for those concerned. This Golden Goose will never be killed!!!
