Federal Hill Under Siege?

Federal Hill Under Siege?

According to a recent news report by Berita Harian, some development projects have started at Bukit Persekutuan or Federal Hill. This comes despite warnings from environmentalists on the need to protect and gazette the area, due to its importance as the green lung of the city, as well as its heritage and historical value to our country. Our resident heritage conservation expert, Elizabeth Cardosa reacts to this news, and re-emphasizes the importance of preserving this often overlooked green space.
