More than a century then passed by, trees have rejuvenated, and just then under the Pakatan leadership, suddenly, logging could be on its way.....
But before the Kedah State Government did anything, according to locals, the Federal government through the Tourism Action Council started the sodomy-ing of Ulu Muda.
Check Google map here.
Sira Bungor (Bungor Salt Lick) now dead. Formerly elephants frequented this salt lick but during my visit, no foot prints were seen. The "sodomy road" passed by this salt lick. How come the Forestry Department did nothing about this natural heritage? Tutup satu mata loh!
Across Muda River is Kem Labua, formerly a base camp for ecotourism. What greeted us were heavy machineries.
Destruction to the ground and fauna and flora. Mud, mud and mud everywhere.
Logging. That was the main objective. Development could be just an excuse.
More logs. Many trees were chopped.
Healthy trees were chainsawed
The local community can just look on as they bring city into the jungle. Their livelihood are now unknown as they have killed the goose that laid the golden eggs.
The locals will not benefit from this project. They knew nothing about this massive land clearing. They could only stand and watch as the politicians and the greedy businessman claim the jungle that feed their families.
Another rape and sodomy story of our Bolehland. Hell to ecotourism!
