Understanding the Criteria for Listing of Buildings as Warisan Kebangsaan
By Ar. Dr. Helena Aman Hashim

Helena Hashim is a Senior Lecturer in Architecture at the Faculty of the Built Environment, University Malaya. A practicing architect with almost 30 years experience, she is a Registered Conservator with Jabatan Warisan Negara. Since the early 2000s, Helena has been involved in several conservation and restoration projects including on the award-winning Stadium Merdeka and most recently, the highly-acclaimed Masjid Diraja Sultan Suleiman, Klang.

This session will closely examine the criteria for listing of properties on the Daftar Warisan as found in Section 67 (2) of the National Heritage Act (2005). Together, we will critically weigh how the different criteria have been applied to buildings which are gazetted as Warisan Kebangsaan and also appraise how the application of these criteria hold up against that from other countries.
