KUCHING: One of the most important restoration of a historical building in Malaysia has been plagued by slow progress.

Fort Margherita, which was built 133 years ago, is presently undergoing a tedious conservation project, which officially began on Oct 5. It is scheduled for completion on Oct 4 next year.
