A Worrying Development in Fraser's Hill

Late last month, residents of Fraser's Hill were shocked by the sudden demolition of both the colonial-style Maybank Lodge and Jelai Resort, which is said to be making way for a high-rise resort and spa, with 181 rooms. We speak to Persatuan Alam dan Warisan Bukit Fraser about what's happening in up in "Little England of Malaysia".
