via New Straits Times, 12 September 2023: Gunung Kanthan, an ecologically valuable limestone hill in Perak and home to the century-old Dhamma Sakyamuni Caves Monastery, faces threats of eviction and degradation due to a recent legal decision favoring a cement manufacturer.
However, what makes this hill which is estimated to be about five million years old unique is the Dhamma Sakyamuni Caves Monastery.
But the century-old Buddhist monastery’s existence is now under threat after the Court of Appeal granted a cement manufacturer, Associated Pan Malaysia Cement (APMC) the right to evict the institution.
