KUANTAN: The Pahang government will not budge from implementing the new leasing scheme in Cameron Highlands, due to the pressing need to resolve issues that have been plaguing the area.

Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Wan Rosdy Wan Ismail said he had heard the grumblings from farmers but maintained that the scheme was set up so that Cameron Highlands would not be continuously ravaged by irresponsible parties.
