With the rising awareness amongst the public regarding the conservation of our precious national heritage, many historical buildings have been preserved and conserved very well. However, some of them have sadly been converted to become premises for banks, restaurants, offices or even shopping malls.

The passing of this new Act draws the attention of the public as well as local organizations. Some give many credits, inter alia, alleged that the Act is already complete. Despite of the credits, the Act, at the same time, also received a lot of critics from various individuals, groups and organization as it is said to be ineffective and unenforceable.
