Sahabat Alam Malaysia is repeating its call for the proposed orchard development in Kledang Saiong Forest Reserve near Chemor, Perak to be halted, and the area re-gazetted as forest reserve land.

It calls into question the validity of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Report for the proposed orchard development at Perak Hi-Tech in Lot PT 253408 and 253409, which was approved by the Department of Environment (DoE) on June 21, 2009.
