KUALA TERENGGANU: The 1,300-year-old chengal tree in Hulu Dungun is a state treasure and will be used to promote eco-tourism in the state, said Terengganu Mentri Besar Datuk Idris Jusoh.
He said the tree would be a boost to eco-tourism in the state like other large trees in the world, such as the Jomon Sugi in Yakushima, Japan, and the Giant Sequoia at the Yosemite National Park in California.
