I absolutely objection with the proposal of seatunnel.

Solve the island transportation first ma, implement like LRT or monorail then built more parking space, then realignment of rapid penang to cope with LRT or monorail.

penang island area is only about 1048km2 but our population is about 1500km2 whereby car registration is 2xxxkm2.. that's y all street, main road, highway jam.....
this only penang worker and penang lang stay.. what bout holiday?? Car bound to penang island shall exceed 3xxxkm2...

built so many link to penang island for what.. get more jam ka..

second bridge is ok because let those factory worker exit penang island fast during peak hour like 7-9am and 5-7pm... but sea tunnel is at tanjung tokong area.. perhaps that area consider is mild to less worker only and those who working hotel line...

during badawi era, he ceased all those mega projects including this and some kl mega project also.. the reason he given is because our country cant bear the construction cost.. after 308 election penang win by PKR... not so long badawi declared step down.. najib took place.. this 5 years time ruled by najib didnt brings up for monorail project for penang.. (because penang lang vote for pkr ma see what pkr can do anything o not lo, kind of politician way) so now they bring up again for next election to attract penang lang voter...

i dont care who rule penang, BN ka or PKR.. the important thing is bring the penang economic to highest point. upgrade transportation, tourism etc...

but if PKR rule penang, tokong LGE still can always proposed the project to federal ma, why wan use the fund to built sea tunnel leh??

those PORR, higway link here link there... end up also jam.. because ppl still using car... see the singapore.. no need highway link here link there.. wanna link like roller coaster meh...

so same tactic again.

The light waterfront project costing about RM300k (SOHO type) to RM1m onwards per unit.. a lot purchaser (so call investor) is from outside not penang lang.. only few percentage is penang lang.. so housing price still keep increasing, lower income and middle income in penang cant afford to buy penang house.. and now wanna use the same tactic again. give the award company to reclaim land for development, and all development cost on this 110 acres plus profit by that developer bear by purchaser again. and still Penang lang wanna face horrible traffic jam, housing price increasing. Problem still no solve..


this thing is recycle planned.. all hit to our poorest penang citizen..

i'm living this island for more twenty years.. said wana implement tourism, but end up poor transportation, no well planning for tourism, all kelam kabut..
