Abstract
Chapter 6 moves to the fringes of the World Heritage site, where the
designation led to a boom in high-rise projects. This chapter analyses
the friction between historic conservation and urban transformation by
focusing on Kampung Chetti, a ‘heritage village’ recognized by the local
conservation law. After introducing the Chetti community, the chapter
deals with the heritagization of Kampung Chetti. Local conservation
laws, however, turn out not to provide adequate protection from the
pressures of real estate development projects. The chapter explores how
the Chetti struggled in vain against a high-rise project adjacent to their
village. Although recognized by the Melaka State Government as heritage,
Kampung Chetti found itself at the bottom of a patrimonial hierarchy,
excluded from UNESCO-derived and national heritage regulations.
