ALOR SETAR: Residents of villages in the Pedu area were relocated in 1969 to make way for the man-made lake but they left behind a few graves that have become visible as the water level at Tasik Pedu drops precipitously.
Agrotourism entrepreneur Amir Wahab, 52, said there were at least three villages at the site of Tasik Pedu before the dam was constructed.
