Another royalty-linked mining project
A company with links to the Pahang royal family is planning to excavate iron from a degazetted forest reserve at Kuala Tembeling in Jerantut - which is home to several protected species, including the critically endangered Malayan Tiger.
The company is linked to Sultan Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah s younger sister, Tengku Nong Fatimah.
