AS a nature lover who likes trekking in the jungle, I can testify to the unique heritage of Malaysia’s ancient and richly bio-diverse natural forests and complex ecosystems of flora and fauna which are in desperate need of protection and conservation.

Thus it was with alarm that I read of the plan to create Taman Tugu in the heart of Kuala Lumpur with transplanted flora and fauna and other “tourist attractions” at a cost of more than RM600mil.
