Question

## Accountability for the Bujang Valley Destruction

Accepted Answer

Penang Deputy Chief Minister II Prof Dr P. Ramasamy has indicated that the Merbok land office should be held accountable for the destruction of prehistoric ruins at archaeological site number 11 in Bujang Valley. This is because the land office reportedly granted the developer permission to clear the land under the premise that no historical sites were present. The developer is also directly responsible for the demolition of the approximately 1,200-year-old candi (tomb temple) ruins, which were cleared to make way for development.
