IPOH: A notice of permit given to a company for 400ha of forest plantation development projects has led several non-governmental organisations (NGOs) to lodge a report with the Malaysian Anti-Corruption Commission (MACC) here.

The state government - through a Forest Resources Committee meeting held in November last year - approved the permit, dated Dec 14, 2018 - for a forest plantation development project at Kledang Saiong Forest Reserve and Bukit Kinta Forest Reserve in the Kinta Manjung district.
