Giant Shah Alam Stadium may be torn down and rebuilt


In a state of disrepair: An aerial view of Shah Alam Stadium and the Malawati Stadium.

SHAH ALAM: The iconic Shah Alam Stadium, once the pride of the state and the country, is now falling apart. And it may soon be torn down and replaced with a new, smaller building.

The massive 83,000-capacity stadium, inaugurated with much fanfare in 1994, was the biggest in the country until the National Stadium in Bukit Jalil was opened four years later.
