Let them try to take away the mega projects. They have invested too heavily in Penang, they will lose not only money but also ground support if they try to impose an economic blockade of Penang. Besides, I think Penang is way too overdeveloped. I miss the days when one could drive from Sungai Ara to Georgetown in 20 minutes.

I miss the days when I could cross the road outside Convent Green Lane without the risk of being run over by vehicles. Those were the days.

lol.. that joker (who ask for mega project cancellation) is trying to put himself an early retirement in political career. he thinks he is agong or pm when saying something like that without passing it to his common sense before spitting it out. i say, let him say anything he want. those big project is not benefits the local. it is just another scheme to suck all the tax payer money into their big pocket hole. thank god the big and badly designed bridge project not approved yet and i hope it will not with the current design. why can’t they build a decent bridge like in china and japan. observation platform is plain silly idea. i hope the bridge plan is going to be reorganized and refunded under the Barisan Rakyat government. show to the Barisan Nasional government that the state government can also build big things with a good transparent and fair corporation management style.

The racial divide is so big its past the mending stage.People are made conscious of race from cradle to grave.I voted with my feet when I was told I was an “orang pendatang” when my ancestors were here longer than some of these folks.
I don’t see things improving.

Peter:
There is hope yet.

Peter – I believe our PM is trying to distract and consolidate his power base since his dismal leadership. By allowing his konco konco to speak and demonstrate, he will consolidate his power. After all, this is the man whom we look up to as a moderate voice. Sadly, his frustrations are clearly showing with Dr. M’s son asking him to “undur”. Hence, he needs a life vest. He can’t even hang on to Penang island for all it matters.
