Edmend Leong wrote in with this project being built by Shiang Yang Open Scout Troop 219 Kinta, Perak in Malaysia. The troop has previously built a 40m high tower, and this tower will be the largest pioneered structure in Malaysia when complete.

Construction is currently underway, and the structure is modelled after the Beijing National Stadium, the famous "Bird's Nest" from the 2008 Olympics. The 'stadium' will be complete later this month.

You can follow progress on the Facebook page or the group website.
