again the writer is based on his personal opinion and although precaution is better than cure but these days even any animals in the farm whether it's in the most stringent or best protocols implemented may be bound to any diseases. and the carrier of H1N1 is human and we should be more afraid of the carrier than birds.

the blog writer than should be instead looking at the beauty of birds flocking into the heritage building and shoot a nice photo to UNESCO about how nature and heritage building blends in.

Indeed Colonial buidings are nice but only a few penangite really appreciate the heritage. majority does not bother as its expensive to reconstruct. Even the NGO is running out of fund and begging for more money to save the heritage buildind. Some of the  buildings already gone and change into Food Court because NGO did not get lots of fund from the public. the mechanism is slow... now dont worry about the swiftlet, the writter must have a lot of thing in his mind map.

Who knows, swiftlet business will help the NGO to save more heritage building since each house saved will cost more than a million. Think about it.
