The Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) of a Tamil school in Kulim, Kedah, has claimed it has uncovered evidence that the school is the rightful owner of a disputed plot of land.
This is after SJK(T) Ladang Sungai Ular s board of governors claimed they were only leased the 0.2ha (0.5 acres) by the Kedah State Development Corporation (PKNK) to construct an additional building.
The school was built in 1936 and has 173 students.
The land fell into dispute after the board signed an agreement with PKNK to lease the land for free for three years, subject to terms such as the corporation can retake the land at any time with three months notice.
