A Second Visit to Gopeng
Our last Gopeng post related to the new museum there and also remarked that parts of the town were falling down. For those of you who do not know the place, here is a photograph of a row of houses just a few yards from the museum. What a dreadful sight to greet the visitor to the beautifully restored museum premises.
An E-mail from A Reader
Upgrade and renovation of fine building need to be tastefully done (architecturally) example the Ipoh High Court, Extension to St Michael school.
Tent structure extension to the Ipoh railway station is foreign to the resident’s architecture is to be avoided.
Hawkers in Malaysia must stop discharging waste into public drains, rivers for it promotes disease and vermins. They need to stationed in premises that discharge waste into manholes and sewerage treatment.
A recycling organisation needs to be set up to reduce waste and allow for recycle.
