This after the state govt cut down 15,000 durian trees at the Batu Talam Forest Reserve in Raub.

Tras assemblyperson Chow Yu Hui has accused the Pahang government of hypocrisy when it swiftly chopped down 15,000 durian trees on grounds that the small farmers illegally encroached into the Batu Talam Forest Reserve in Raub.

He said the state government did not appear to have the same commitment when it leased 1,213ha of nearby land to a consortium for its Musang King durian empire in 2018. Chow noted that local and international reports had said the land was a water catchment area and also a habitat for the endangered Malayan tigers...

The government is trying hard to paint the durian farmers as land encroachers, yet didn’t want to mention the government’s failure to make good its promise.

DSN has also been asking why LGE's bungalow case was swept aside? How on earth was he elected? Low mentality & stupid YB chowyuhui

Lots of people mistakenly think this is just about illegal farming. It isn't. It is much more complex than that. It has more to do with bullying, betrayal and discriminatory practices by government.

It's 2 different issues. As an assemblyman you should not protect illegal farmers. At the same time you should protest the encroachment of wildlife habitat, if any. If police catch you while robbing a bank, can you tell him, hey I heard you beat your wife, why can't I rob a bank?

These guy will loose a lot of votes coming election. He failed to protect those criminals that voted him. Better bark loud to show some effort. Mana tau kot kot dapat save a few votes.

cronyism?

Tras assemblyperson Chow Yu Hui : Seems like you support illegal encroachment?

LOL...talk for the tiger or illegal Durian Farmers? money is god as we know

Try to be a champion of 'haram' farmers..? Then, don't be a Malaysian if you cannot abide by the rule of law..!!
