Loke Yew and The Hawthornden Estate
Manage episode 442047219 series 3380248
In this episode of I Love KL, we recall the late Loke Yew’s contribution in developing KL, and the legacy that he left behind, including his rubber estate in Wangsa Maju, the Hawthornden Estate. He was buried in this estate, which was then acquired by the Ministry of Defence in the early 80s. The whole area then grew to become what we now know today as Wangsa Maju. Heritage conservation expert Elizabeth Cardosa walks us through the whole story.
