**5. Findings and discussions**

The study findings and discussions can be surmised as:


 considering the paucity of funds, conservation of heritage is not given appropriate consideration based on government scale of preference. On the other hand, the minimal deterioration caused by electromagnetic and solar effect on monuments could be attributed to the nature of most of the feature design and specifications. In the design there was extensive provision of veranda, corridors and recesses on most openings; as well as high-quality and durable materials were specified and used during construction. While the government is considered the most critical culprit in heritage deterioration, the other side of the challenge will be that most other stakeholders may stand aloof without bringing to bear their expertise as well as communal consideration in conserving the features.
