What they were concerned about was whether Tamalin was a historical landmark whose preservation was mandated by national law. If not, then it was not the responsibility of the local authorities, and they could afford to ignore the issues of protection and management which would follow.
他們關心的是，如果大馬璘不是國家法令列管的古蹟，那便不屬於地方主管的權責，可以不予理會隨後而來的保護、管理等問題。
