DAP ups a ante upon Gerakan: Special Committee to examine into BN's "cheap land sales"
The Penang State EXCO during is assembly upon 7.9.2012 has decided a Special EXCO Committee upon Cheap Land Sales of during slightest 4,000 acres of State Land by a previous state government. Penang State EXCO part of for Local Government as well as Traffic Management will conduct this special EXCO cabinet as well as all supervision departments especially Land Office, a dual local governments as well as Penang Development Corporation are directed to give full co-operation to Chow.
Cheap land sales or even land since for giveaway by BN supervision came into focus when BN highlighted a PR state government's sale by open rival proposal of a 1.1 hactare square of land in Taman Manggis for a in isolation hospital plan to foster medical tourism in Penang. Not only BN though Gerakan has lost all honour as well as credibility when BN Penang Chairman Teng Chang Yeow can not prove his claims that four of my EXCO members, my domestic secretary as well as myself had personal interest in a hospital project. And because did BN never announced to a press until now that a 1.1 hactare square was reserved for open housing in 2003 nor set up from 2003-8, especially when a supposed open housing plan was additionally not noted in a layout plans?
Bankrupt of domestic capital
BN has obviously run out of domestic collateral when it resorted to not only aggressive members of my family though additionally my landlady. As a Taman Manggis land is by open tender, anyone can bid. Even my landlady or BN cronies can additionally bid as well as will be awarded ! if they compensate a highest price. Why drag my landlady when she or her association did not even bid for a 1.1 hactare square of land?
For Koh Tsu Koon or Teng to say that he does not have supervision documents is prejudiced when BN can furnish alleged documents of Taman Manggis in 1993. Chow Kon Yeow would look into a some-more than 4,000 acres of state land or brand even some-more land that were sole low or without open rival proposal such as:-
a) In a Tanjong Tokong Reclamation, underneath Agreements antiquated 1990 & 1999, a developer was since a right to retrieve as well as develop 980 acres of land off Tanjong Tokong during a price of RM 1 per square foot!
b) 750 acres of land in Batu Kawan was sole in 2004 during in between RM3.05 to RM 4 per square feet.
c) As for a Jelutong Expressway, underneath Agreements antiquated 1997, 2002 & 2003, a developer was since a right to retrieve 325 acres of land in sell for constructing a Jelutong Expressway during an estimated price of RM300 million as well as cash remuneration of RM25.4 million. In alternative words, a sum price is RM325.4 million for 325 acres or a price of reclaimed land during Jelutong Expressway is RM 1 million per hactare or over RM 20 per square feet. What's some-more a developer can compensate RM 25.4 million over 10 years from 2005 up to 2015 certainly a record for length of remuneration period.
d) 80 acres of prime land in Pulau Jerejak was sole to Urban Development Authority(UDA) without open proposal upon 15 Jan 2001 for a franchise duration of 60 years during only RM 3.72 per square feet.
e) 1,600 acres of reclaimed land off Butterworth was since to Rayston free. Rayston only had to compensate RM50 million reclamation price as well as set up a main road that they are profitable by fee collections.
f) 18.7 acres land in Midlands Court as well as over 4 acres in Prangin Mall was sole by proposal though not to a highest bidder. Inst! ead for both sites, a 2nd highest bidder was selected.
g) 500 acres of reclaimed land awarded without open proposal for a Penang Outer Ring Road(PORR) project
Finally if BN is sincere about building low-cost housing, because is it that BN did not fulfill a promise as well as skeleton to set up dual 17-storey block of low-cost flats upon a present 1st Avenue as well as Traders Hotel sites? Selling state land low caused monetary losses to a people of Penang as well as were amongst a many reasons Gerakan lost all a seats as well as BN was deserted in a 2008 general elections.
