KOTA BARU: The removal of orang asli blockades in Kelantan was just part of a major operation, says state Forestry Department director Zahari Ismail.

Zahari shared the information with members of a WhatsApp group, and said 133 General Operations Force personnel from Pengkalan Chepa were part of the operation, which also sought to weed out illegal sawmills that had sprouted in several permanent forest reserves.
