CAMERON HIGHLANDS: Unsustainable land clearing is continuing on a staggering scale here, with pristine virgin jungle the size of numerous football fields chopped down to make way for agriculture conversion. (金马伦高原上的原始森林正在被以惊人的速度开发成农地)
A large portion of the land clearing is taking place away from the public eye, as excavators and tractors are kept busy deep in the heart of the jungle, a good hour's drive from the main road. (因为大部分被开发的地点在丛林深处,所以并没有被民众发现)
The bulk of the clearing at Pos Terisu spans at least four hills and valleys, the fresh red earth an ugly scar on the remaining green areas.
Some no longer resemble hills as deep shelves have been cut into the land which is flattened so that farmers can start planting vegetables.
