CM rapped over hillside development

GEORGE TOWN: An MCA state leader has criticised Penang Chief Minister Lim Guan Eng over the latter's statement that more stop-work orders have been issued against hillside development by the current state government.

State MCA Wanita chairman Tan Cheng Liang (pic) said Lim, who is also the DAP secretary-general, had "conveniently avoided" revealing the increase in number of protests in the state since 2008.

"He boasts about more stop-work orders being issued now compared to when Barisan Nasional was helming the state government.

"However, he failed to reveal that there have been more protests by Penangites against hillside development since Pakatan Rakyat took over.

"The latest is the chorus of dissatisfaction by residents of Mount Pleasure in Batu Ferringhi, objecting against approval accorded by the Penang Municipal Council (MPPP) for the construction of 21 four-storey villas and 80 two-storey bungalows there," she said.

She said the 2008 DAP general election manifesto unveiled by Lim promised to "preserve our forest, wetlands and bio-diversity" while Pakatan Rakyat's common policy framework stressed that the "environment must be preserved for the sustainability of future generations."

"Just six weeks ago, Lim said in a speech that the Pakatan government was proud of its record of not approving any hillside development.

"However, the voices of disapproval by Penangites are evidence that Lim, the DAP and Pakatan are deceptive," she claimed.

Citing examples, she said on April 8 this year, Sungai Ara residents protested against approval issued by MPPP Planning Department for two hillside development projects and in February 2009, Tanjung Bungah residents protested and submitted a memorandum calling on the state government to ban all current and future Class III and Class IV hillslope development projects.

"In view of these protests and to deliver the DAP and Pakatan's pledge to protect the environment, I challenge Lim and the state government to issue a stop-work orders against all hillside development projects approved by MPPP," she said in a press release yesterday.

Tan also took a swipe at Lim for focusing on luxury residences but allegedly had no regard for the poor.

"Approvals are given for exclusive housing and condominium projects on hills, but scant attention is given to low-cost housing for the poor where no low or medium cost units were constructed between 2008 to 2011," she claimed.

On Tuesday, Lim said more stop-work orders had been issued by both local councils since 2008 compared to previously.

He said this proved that the state government was "more stringent in upholding the rule of law, demanding strict compliance with technical requirements and more unforgiving than Barisan."

It started a series of articles written by other bloggers about Johor and drew even more attention, which many talked about. Enough to be asked to 'come for dinner '.
