Conservationist: Start valuing heritage for its own sake

KUCHING: Efforts to conserve Sarawak’s heritage must be rooted in knowledge and appreciation of the state’s rich history, culture and environment, said Datuk Seri Lim Chong Keat.

The Penang-born architect and conservationist said the challenge and beauty of Sarawak was the richness of its rural environment which many urbanites were unfamiliar with.
