Hi,we are the team who restore the dumpsite at sua betong, under a company called Cypark Resources Berhad. At the first stage we have to demolish the chimney according to the design, but we have found out that the chimney have historical value. Because it was build in the colonial era. So our company and the consultant have the design to remain the chimney.........
