Penang Siamese village to go, making way for urbanisation


THE Siamese community in Kampung Siam, Penang, are in despair after their High Court appeal to stay on the land was dismissed on Feb 24 this year.

The residents had first filed a case to the Sessions Court to challenge the eviction notice issued in April 2014 by the landowner but their application was dismissed in June last year.
