CAMERON HIGHLANDS: The High Level Committee On Illegal Cultivation and Restoration of Cameron Highlands has decided to reconsider applications for Temporary Occupational Licenses (TOL) submitted by illegal farmers, which were previously rejected by the Pahang government.

Deputy Prime Minister Datuk Seri Dr Ahmad Zahid Hamidi said the state government would vet through again the 600-over applications it had turned down previously.
