LENGGONG: There has been very little effort to promote archaeological sites in Lenggong Valley as a tourist spot and a World Heritage Site, say local guides.

A76 Lenggong Tourism Association chairman Asnan Mohd Yusof said there was a lot of expectation from the local business community when Lenggong Valley was first accorded the World Heritage status by Unesco (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation) six years ago.
