MELAKA: A historical association has come out to support the proposal to rename St Paul's Hill to Bukit Melaka.

The Malaysian Historical Association's Melaka chapter president Prof Datuk Dr Mohd Jamil Mukimin said that he supported the proposal by Melaka Museum Corporation (Perzim), claiming that the palace of the bygone Melaka Sultanate and a grand mosque dating back some 758 years was originally on the hilltop.
